    Looks interesting. Seems like it may be a says off still though. Gotta decide which astrotrain to get in the meantime, DX9 or Toyworld?

    Well, neither of the other two hit my buttons, so I passed.

    Though, honestly, unless this is at least the size of Chigurth it will end up being passed on as well.

    They live!

    TBH, I'm in the boat of "I'd like to see this guy in MP scale" because he hits all the right notes in terms of design for a G1 accurate Astrotrain.

    I also vote for "Please be MP scale!". DX9's and Toyworld's versions just don't work for me at all. This looks the closest to what I define as being Astrotrain.

    There is an appeal to having him the same size as Generations Blitzwing.

    Hot damn, this could very well be the MP Astrotrain I've been looking for! ToyWorld's Evilastar/Devilstar is a pretty great IDW Classics Space-Choo-Choo (but it doesn't tick enough boxes to make it MP for me) and DX-9's proportions and various compromised alt modes didn't do anything for me, but this is looking great! The hinged hands look MP-ish to me but it's hard to tell what his overall size and scale is. Looking forward to more reveals.
