Ironhide looks like crap.

Unicron it's self is one big gimmick but otherwise I don't know what to say about him right now but MEH.

Masterpiece? FANTASTIC!!!

Unicron's tempting, and the MPs are awesome.

You're not seeing things.

Ironhide's looking worse with every new picture I see. The shoulder kibble sits way too high to look well-integrated; his torso, thighs, and upper arms look way too skinny, and the chest is latter than Calista Flockhart's. So much got lost in translation because he's a deluxe. Is it too much to ask for a Prime Ironhide toy that actually looks like this?:

Unicron and Soundwave are on my want list now. I might get the Micron repaints too....but I don't know yet.

Did you see the Kup review earlier? His legs as shown here and his arms which aren't shown here are are much worse when it comes to being hollow.

Are those...Decepticon emblems on Unicron? Hahahahahaha! Bravo, Takara!

And that Ironhide looks like shit. I'll likely pass on it when he sees release.

I also really hope he has hands, because those arm wad things are retarded.

Looks like his micron turns into a little mole tank with a drill for a nose. cool.

As far as I know, on the show he didn't have any hands, so the 'wads' are probably all there is

This, I had high hopes towards his Deluxe class figure.
He stray way too far from his CGI design for my liking, which is odd for me since I own and love PRID Bulkhead.

Unicron looks pretty cool - even though the features of him having an alternate mode and being able to combine with Optimus or Megatron are rather dumb. (Also,...is he another Japan exclusive?)

And man, oh man, MP Soundwave looks incredible!!!

So underwhelmed by Unicron's combined mode. I remember the original design to be much more appealing and form an exoskeleton that would only fit the Prime.
and that AM Ironhide seems to have exact same headsculpt as Kup. Does that mean we may not see NA release?

Unicron's robot mode looks great, but his "alternate" modes just look like a mess of parts.
