    18 steps for a Siege figure? Never really noticed or counted transformation steps on these guys.

    The only complaint I have is Wheeljack's Shield Ramp is clear plastic, I'm not goin't to use it as a ramp, out of fear of breaking it.

    Am I the only one who hates legends class they’re so small and just look at them really look at them and say that’s fine. Really? I’m the only one that doesn’t want runt, scout, legends class figure? I really am the only one and everyone is ok with that. They just look and play weird

    I’m also bummed but I think I’m okay with Hasbro not going all out on the Cybertronian designs. If they had gone all out, I think the move to Earth Rise’s “Straight up G1” theme would’ve been even more disappointing.

    I bet Wheeljack was tooled up and they put him in the poll thinking they could/ would swap the shell parts out for Earth mode if he lost and we just wouldn't get a Cybertron mode version of the figure. We were always going to get him I think the only thing the poll decided is if he was a double dip like Prime and Star Scream are now apparently going to be. Starscream looks good, but its all about that Strike eagle if I get him r not because honestly as an action figure to play with and represent the seekers that siege mold and his two wing mates have sat on my BEDSIDE NIGHT STAND since I got Sky Warp and thundercracker I love it so much. Im guessing we get the rainmakers in Cybertron form and then the cone heads in earth form … possibly even in the same style, as a Target exclusive 3 pack in about a year and a half. I will have to get the coneheads. I am not sure I will get the Earth mode original trio as I do still use the CW leaders for that form. The proportions in alt mode work well with deluxe car bots and the bot modes work with Gi joe figures.

    That Starscream is basically an upscaled and improved Universe 2.0 Starscream.

    I'm not complaining, that mold is great

    The episode 1 designs kept the same robot modes on Cybertron. That's why the tetrajet seeker still has the F-15 cockpit chest and presumably, this is why we're getting Lancia feet.

    Has there been any confirmation on Omnibots, or is just speculation at this point? I need to know before I lose my shit and run screaming into the streets.

    There are smaller-sized characters in the unified scale. I'm sorry to have to point it out, but you should be expecting them by now. Minibots will be Minibot size in comparison with the rest, and the Legends price point is made up of Micromasters now. :<

    my speculation.

    I want new Omnibots but I also feel like if they only need one new mold then it's less likely for them to be ignored for too long.

    So why sell legends class figures when Micromasters make up for it? What sense does that make to make small figures next to the already small figures?

    I\'m liking these remoulds, looks like screamers chest actually becomes his cockpit this time round.

    And yeah, that wheeljacks mine.

    pretty sure he's got the same nosecone transformation as the OG Classics figure, which was kind of a brilliant interpretation of the classic scheme minus the nosecone interfering with head articulation.

    Same here! Always wanted to collect a Seeker legion, and now the mold I want exists.
