I'll also always wonder what the choices for truck would've been. Is it possible we had a chance at getting the Rook or Swindle mold as a limb?

My guess is it would've reduced complaints about those two but increased complaints about Pyra Magna as she would now have been the only "bulky" figure in an otherwise slender team.

Honestly I regret not throwing more support behind the Optimus mold because I'd love to have seen that group go into fits when we got an even bulkier torso bot.

 

Looking at their limbs, that is where it goes bad. The square shapes kill it.
Now the new for arms have rounded shape, like a regular fem-bot. Examples like Arcee and Chromia in the generations line. Why not continue with that? The upper legs and upper arms on all the bots could have easily be round shapes. They need not be square. And would aesthetically be much more pleasing.
Im still thinking if i will buy the set or not. Usually when i start thinking
I don't but who knows.

 

I'm curious if Takara will do some sort of 'Tracks to Road Rage' thing with their version of Victorion.

 

If they do than I'm skipping Hasbro.

 

Go GULF Racing!

If they were going to make a Gulf racing team, they should have gotten the shades right. They shoulda been all cars and a car hauler too.

 

They look much better on in-hand photos than on the official ones.

Still, it's kinda sad to see how CW Victorion and Computron feet are designed with an ankle tilt feature while standard HFGs are not. This should be a bare minimum, not a premium feature.
