Grimlock looks like he's choking on a French fry.

 

No no, believe me, people were talking about breaking, the plastic walls in the limbs...

 

Oh right, I forgot about that one guy. Nevermind.

 

Just as long as we get a Soundwave in this.

 

Am I the only one hyped by the fact that the plushie keychains transform?

 

The promotional material has all been Bumblebee and Windblade, yet so far we\'ve seen no signs of any plans for a Windblade toy for the line and we\'ve seen at least three different Bumblebees, Optimus Primes, Starscreams, Megatrons, and Grimlocks. What the crap?

 

I was really hoping that we'd see the Scout class fully transformed into their alt-modes on the show floor. I really hope that I don't have to wait until they are on shelves in order to see them properly transformed.

 

I think it’s about the size of a large Voyager. A little bigger by maybe 0.5”.

The Warriors are 0.5” to 1” shorter than a Deluxe. The Ultimate Class is less than twice the height of a Warrior. So around 7”.

 

Annndddd we have returned to Animated-era designs...

 

That's not new.

 

The great Tragedy here is that The Warrior class is Habro thinking that it is doing a good job.
There was at least (by accident or intent) the odd half decent idea in Nu-RID such as a new Transformation (3-step drift was kinda clever).

There is just to many things in this line that seems compromised - either by the low cost or the gimmick getting in the way of the toys functions as a robot.

I hope they have a rethink and do a better job with Rodimus and Soundwave. as this is a very poor start indeed - very poor.

 

Welp looks like I can skip yet another line. Completely skipped ALL of the RID junk. this line looks even worse so far.

 

Just realized Cyberverse Bumblebee has a similar if not identical transformation scheme as CW Blackjack.

 

But it took 10 years for them to try it again.

I don't know what they were trying to do here, but it did not work.

 

That's some Silent Hill shit right there.

 

OH Shockwave looks even better then the renders..............gonna need to find a way to disable that stupid gimmick though.

 

Are these the original G1 characters in a new continuity or a completely new continuity with completely new characters who just happen to look like the original G1 characters?

 

Im digging most of these to be honest, it’s like the Animated style but with the Blockiness of G1gives it its own unique look.

the gimmicky figures look lackluster but shockwave prime and megs look great!

 

Dunno about the first one, but that right there kids is a GERWALK!
