I'd probably buy that Classics Deluxe Tank Megatron in Shiny silver if they made him in that colour way.
I personally don't mind the DX Optimus and this looks like the nicest colour version so far.
Wollstone
I think it's weird that they went from random chrome to varnish the heck out of everything.

Missed out on Classics Bumblebee the first time, so I will be swooping this…
Also liking the Megatron… might have to sell my Henkei version for this one…

I love that new megatron repaint. WAY better than the original release. I dont have the original Classics or the Henkei, so if the price isn't too high, this figure is perfect for me. As for the others, Cliffjumper is looking awsome, but will wait for the hasbro release. The rest are a pass for me unless they fixed the deluxe Prime.

Is that WFC Megs giving ppl the 2 fingers on that pic? XD

Hmm, digging the brand new shiny paint-job on WFC Soundwave, Cliffy, Megs and Prime!
Shame that Drift is exactly the same as his Generations mold. tsk, tsk Takaratomy!

So this line will be mainly re-releases & barely-there repaints? *sigh* If they're re-releasing Classics 1.0 Bumblez, How about sculpting him a new head & BFG, painting him red & giving us a Henkei Cliffjumper? It could happen…
Tigermegatron
it's kinda disappointing,that the 3 unknown united figures from yesterday are all re-releases. I was hoping they'd be TF Prime new molds.

Excited about the 2 Bee repaints and most especially about the Cliffjumper!

There isn't much difference in paint apps really. Looks like I'll be skipping most of the Japanese ones this time around. We'll see if they give Tracks and other classic G1 characters more toon accurate paint apps. That's the only way I'll be buying these ones. Metalic paint isn't enough to make me buy them, especially when the colors and apps themselves aren't really any different than the Hasbro ones.
I know some people didn't like the chrome of the Henkei line, but I was kind of hoping these "United" guys would have chrome so they would match my Henkei collection.

Cliffhumper will be a must for me. Maybe I'll purchase that Deluxe (not Cybertron) Prime. The rest are a pass.

I need that cliffjumper now
Autobot Burnout
Wow, Drift looks the exact same as his Hasbro counterpart, except the fact where his feet are mistransformed.
The rerelease of Voyager Megatron also might be good news, as that might lower prices on the first runs and make it easier to get.
Deadend
That CJ is just damn sexy. Makes me glad I missed the classics one now.
COMEON AND BE RELEASED ALREADY!
Robogeek28
Hmmmm, I wonder if there's any chance of them rereleasing any of the other older Henkei bots as well. I'd love to get ahold of a lot of the older Autobots without paying insane Ebay prices.

Wicked. Though the war for cybertron redecos look the best with their more aniimatedo style metalic finishes. Megatron is grey which I guess gets him closer to a sunbow G1 cartoon colorscheme. The soundwave is hot, and if that red on cliffjumper is romotely as good as alternity cliffs red. That will be hot as well.
Obviously that's going to be the hasbro version head. woot! domestic awesome cliff.
Need more photos of that war for cybertron prime. The lines look really crisp and hopefully this will be a nice alternitve to a voyager henkei prime. definitely without fansproject makeing a armor set for the war for cybertron dudes the demand should be lower.

I like that Henkei Megatron more than the original release.
Emperor Zarak
These look soo well done……..definitely a want.

So if this is basically 'Henkei 2010', why are they double dipping on megatron and bumblebee?
At least bumblebee has a slightly different deco, megatron is just missing deco.
The nice thing about Henkei was there wasn't a ton of repaints and was easy to complete. Now it looks like they're going for a less collector focus with this line. And no seaspray, wtf
Biotoakid
Is that a re realness Megs? If so I'm gettin it if it's cheap
