    Optimus Prime looks a little off to me. I think it's the flat-looking midsection and/or the fact that his chest sticks out too far. Hopefully you can slide his chest back to remedy this. I also hope the ball joint on his neck is the same size as Siege Primes's so you can switch heads and give him blue eyes.

    Who's to say we may not get some more? I think there's potential for it still.

    I love G1 Too. But I wish they at least had SOME completion to the SIEGE Line, Especially with original ARK Crew. Instead of having to mix and match with whatever pops up in Earth Rise.

    There have been some instances where Optimus had yellow eyes. His original G1 toy had them, his Rescue Bots incarnation has them, his UT self had them, so having an Optimus with yellow eyes isn't super new.

    I don't have a grapple yet. But other than that I'm kind of G1'd out. I guess I'll wait and see what characters they do that I may not have yet.

    Me too! Earth should have been saved for the final part of the trilogy. Since it's called "WAR FOR CYBERTRON", There should be more Cybertronian characters.

    The new pics hit this thread 8 minutes later... never been more glad to be wrong.
    That OP... ooh... eesh... ooh... anyone care to buy just the trailer off of me when it arrives?
    Come to think of it, I said the same thing about Astrotrain's caboose... a pattern emerges.

    So, Earth already then. :(  That's disappointing, but not surprising. When I first heard about War for Cybertron, I had hoped that at least of the majority of the series would actually be focused on Cybertron. Ah well, it is what it is. Good news for the people who were wanting Earth modes at least.

    I must admit Optimus does look good, although I would have preferred a more modern looking truck. I get the feeling the Earth part of this line is going to mostly rehashing the 80's designs, which I'm sure will make a lot of people happy. The thing I like about Siege is that it's G1 nostalgia with a twist, and without that twist it becomes a lot less interesting. Sure, some of the designs didn't look all that Cybetronian/futuristic/etc., but still, it was something different.

    I guess I just don't have as much nostalgia for the original series as most people here. I do love it, but I don't really want a recreation, which is what this seems to be trending toward. I just hope the upcoming show deviates heavily from the G1 story. And hey, I still have Siege and maybe we'll still get some Selects figures along that line. Maybe a third party company will give us Siege style versions of the characters that don't get them.

    The one thing I am pleased with here is Ironworks. He'll be great for my Micromasters, which yes, have had Earth modes since the beginning and clash greatly with the Siege designs, but I treat them as a separate thing and display them in their own area.

    Well. This isn't a leak. It is surprising and I love it, I just wish we had Cybertronian vehicles for a little bit longer. I love that the new deluxes that come apart become little micromaster bases. Autobot city, and Decepticon Rise, are not complete yet.

    I personally own MP Prime already, plus like 20 different other OP toys, so I'm (again personally) ok with skipping this one. I'd have no place for it to go, honestly.

    Exactly. Especially since we still have characters with Cybertronian modes that have yet to be made. so we'll likely still see that from time to time.

    The ramps on Ironworks and Optimus's trailer use the same connections as Omega Supreme, so we'll be able to add them to your sprawling Transformer city! :)

    The universe map inclusion might suggest that these are the earth landers hence the earth modes but might still have cybertronian figures too like they did for season 3 jumping too and from what with moonbase etc. So may see a mix.....well hopefully cause the Cybertron modes were awesome, its a shame to end it now and abruptly without a transitional chapter.
