    Payload is a low-ride pickup.

    We had already seen him before; some of you might be using him as your mech in that onlne game, heheh.
    And he has a cam head. We can asume he's one of those Decepticon drones.

    Longarm is gorgeous! I'm curious about these non-movie movieline figs. I've passed on Swindle already, but if Longarm is any indication, these may be some real "hidden" gems. Can't wait to see more of these guys...

    Longarm looks halfway decent. I like that plating on the chest. I forgot what that's called. Can't make out enough of Payload to be sure of anything. Same with "Final Battle Jazz." If it's just a slight repaint, it makes me wonder whether I should buy the regular version or wait for that. I can't see myself buying both.

    That PS2 looking controler is the only Real Gear TF I actually like. Longarm is looking pretty nice too, but I'll reserve judgment on the other Deluxes until after we see some full size images.

    Wow, Longarm looks great. A unique altmode, bulky but well articulated in botmode, and a very distinctive headsculpt. He resembles Armorhide alot, and not only in terms of color scheme and alt mode, but that he's another obscure yet well designed toy.

    What little I can see of Payload makes me excited about him, even if he is another Decepticon drone. I wonder if we'll ever see repaints of the drones with unique headsculpts.

    As for Jazz, if those listings from a long time ago were accurate then he should have a blue/white color scheme resembling G1, but it's pretty hard to tell between white and silver at that low a resolution. It could just as easily be a regular movie Jazz with scorch marks/battle scars. Either way it wouldn't be that much a change in terms of colors from the original version.

    LONGARM is cute. BUMBLEBEE can sit on his truck back shooting at BRAWL so I can create a 'trailer' moment!

    Dammit hasbro, knock it off.

    Stop making things I must buy.

    I'm buying so many highscore's to try and kitbash or give to friends.
    And If they keep up these nice alt modes in the right sizes, I may never stop buying within my scale.

    What's payload's alt form again?

    Heh, a tow truck to haul final battle jazz around, or reenact the bumble bee scene. O.O

    NICE!

    Longarm: Up yours, Megatron!

    He looks like an armored truck, not a pickup.

    Damnitt! Stop making so much stuff that I have to buy! I guess I'll have to not get Leader Prime just so I can get all of these other things. 'Specially Longarm. Maybe. Ooh! And if Payload is a good guy (I can't really tell) I want him.

    Interesting that Longarm looks nothing like his TF Game vversion... But a very nice toy, much better then most of the actual CGI Movie bots.

    Payload, my fav. Con so far is there too... he is also in the TF game.

    Is it me or does Final Battle Jazz look exactly like his old version?!?

    High Score is great... very nice idea to give him those gorilla-arms. :)
