    No problem!

    After having seen these pics, I went ahead and pre-ordered this guy. I am curious about the orange piece behind his head, though. I've got a pretty good feeling that it will be able to swing down and unfold around his head, for those who want their Sandstorm a little more G1-y. This is of course just a wild guess, I have no proof(...yet:p ).

    20 odd dollar toy at a time when costs are at a high, extensive retool of what was already a pretty well received toy, and Triple Changers involve some compromise anyway...

    ...and people. are. still. nit. picking. Really?

    The three new voyagers are so nice! I can't wait to see what new stuff they unveil at BotCon and SDCC.

    It'd be cool if they did a head kit for him like they did for Kup.

    Maybe they may have regretted making Astrotrain and Octane Deluxe class previously under the Henkei.

    While I love that Hasbro is finally doing these great characters, there are some failings in production value.
    I know things ultimately boil down to cost, but would it be so hard to tweak a couple of things for us.
    I love my Springer and as such have scrapped my custom in progress. And have decided to put my time into getting him a proper tail.
    On that note; It wouldnt have been that hard to do the same for Sandstorm and still have it become the windows. I appreciate the fat beach tires, but long for the G1 rotor.
    Will still buy him and enjoy him, but I will also impatiently wait for the 3rd party add ons.

    I think Broadside and Astrotrain should be higher up, to be able to at least fit a deluxe on and in them for scale. These ARE vehicles of mass size, so it would be best if they could be ultimate class (not likely though).

    I would have no interest in getting those two in the Ultimate size class. That should be reserved for the likes of Trypticon, Fort Max, and Scorponok. Although I'd like Max and Scorponok to be Leader class, to be more interactive with the other bots.

    Yeah, they wouldn't be a crown jewel in any collection, but I've seen worse.
