I found most of wave 1 today and picked up Cliffjumper and Vehicon (wanted Arcee, too, but they didn't have her at that Target). Since I had no interest in the movie, this is my first exposure to Cyberverse (although I do have some Universe and RotF Legends). I'm kind of in love and am trying to resist the urge to go out and buy all the others tomorrow.

Vehicon is neat. His sculpt is very very cool, I like the paint, and his alt mode is seriously badass. I wish his arm articulation was better though, or that there was at least something better to do with the car roof so that his arms would at least bang into stuff less often. The transformation is pretty basic, but I still kinda want two more of him. And some of the jet version.

Cliffjumper is freaking amazing. I've barely put him down since I opened him up. His deco is a bit plain, but the articulation is great and his transformation is really creative and fun. This guy is so much fun I can't believe it - I actually want to not only get more Cyberverse figures, but I really want to give the show a second chance now, too.

Looks like I'm all in on this. Bring on the Commanders.

like the look of all these guys cept for bee, who I'll probably get just to have the whole crew.

Looking forward to wheeljack the most. Not sure why, but that design seems to translate to plastic form really well.

Safe to say I'm a big Cyberverse fan now, can't wait to troop build my Vehicons!
Already started. Have 3 vehicons now.

As much as I want to get into Prime Cyberverse, I think it's going to have to be a pass for me, simply because their prices in Australia are nothing short of daylight robbery. No commander is good cost only a couple dollars less than a deluxe.

He might turn into a taller Legion figure like Dotm Crowbar.


I really can't wait to see what CV Commanders Ultra Magnus, Dreadwing and Skyquake look like.

Sounds like the army-building may get a bit out of hand with Vehicons. I usually only get one of every Cyberverse/Legends figure, and couldn't find the Vehicon (surprise, surprise) at retail. I just hope Hasbro releases them in a better case assortment so those of us that don't need multiples don't get shafted.

Cliffjumper does have a good bit of articulation, but I just don't like it all that much. He looks really odd with the tiny horned head and snowshoes as feet.

Personally, Megatron and Optimus will be the ones I snag on sight over any other releases. Their commander figures look amazing, and will be the official leaders of my Legends/Cyberverse armies.
"It is only logical, as I gaze upon the spark of this femme-bot, that I guide my dexterous manipulator and apply additional servos to the task of making it stronger, so that she may comprehend a femme-bot's expected role. Logic dictates."

I'd venture $30-ish USD like the DOTM Ark started out.

Really? I'm assuming they're $20-ish because they look smaller than the Ark but look bigger than the six $15 playsets. I hope they're not $30 though. I'll probably have to skip the Wheeljack set if they're that much.
