    Love the proportions on this guy! Now all we need is a Gigatron for him to fight.

    I’d be down. Maybe more for the Devil version.

    I just sold off my RID Optimus Prime and Ultra Magnus a couple of days ago so these will make excellent replacements! What perfect timing ^^

    I really hope they'll make a Gigatron, don't get me wrong I love the original and It's aged like the finest wine but it would still be nice to see him get a new figure finally that's also a larger scale as well.

    I'd only consider buying if it transformed...

    Hum, I might be able to forgive the non-transforming.

    It's looking great - I hope it turns out well because I'd like to get it.

    Wish you could remove more of the Battle Mode parts though - the regular robot mode is too similar. They've only really changed the head and removed the ladder.

    Regardless, I'm looking forward to it. It better be good!

    I’ve already got a wishlist of high end action figures I’d love to see this company make.

    Gigatron
    Armada Megatron
    War Within The Fallen
    Armada Optimus Prime Super Mode

    I know Flame Toys is giving us The Fallen but that’s just a remold of Tarn.

    By making a product that people want?

    I love how upset people are that it doesn't transform and isn't G1. Boohoo. How dare someone make something different for once!

    My collection is primarily G1 and RID-focused at the moment (will expand again more eventually), so I'm very happy with this decision.

    IF they make a good figure, I'm sure it'll sell just fine.

    Armada megatron would be the absolute tits. That design always shows off better than it’s made into toys.
    Action masters remade would be dope. Link imagine people getting into super high action quality versions of charger or freaking mainframe?

    It's weird, whenever I see a non-transforming figure, I always think "well duh, they can't make that design work cleanly and transform". Every time, no matter how many times I'm surprised later when someone does it.

    Agreed, Armada Megatron has one of the coolest looking designs in Transformers in my opinion and I can see Banana Force making a badass looking figure out of that considering how well their RID Optimus Prime turned out. If they were to make a figure of his Cybertronian form or his earth form I'd be happy either way. They could even include the Star Saber and Requiem Blaster as his weapons too.

    I agree! Hopefully someone makes a MP version one day of this and the brothers (sideburn, prowl, and xbrawn)
