Yet again this MS vs NA battle is givin me a headache

 

Me too, until Iron Factory comes out with theirs?

 

I forget. Did IDW go with the clone/cartoon/unified look or more individualized/toy look?

 

Oh god, i feel annoyed that i have to go looking for a scale chart to know what size they are. Not puny like the insecticons i hope..

Edit: they look good.

 

So judging from scale chart and the looks of these they should be near carbot size. The brawn and outback SHOULD be slightly taller than bumblebee.

 

From the comics I read, Dreamwave did the individual “MicroX” toy look. IDW did the uniform cartoon look. Thought I had both MicroX and Takara versions, I dig the cartoon look myself. Praise be to WFC Siege!

 

Looking good. I do also like the look of MS’ though, especially the smooth lower legs. But I think if NA can get the colours right on these I’ll be happy. I may just pop the head of one of the trio for my alt mode set to avoid the weird look in camera mode.

Looks good, but is the entire frontside of the camera separate from the bots?

 

Looks like NewAge has a sense of humor.

Q. Does it come with flash and tripod?
A. They are not in the cartoon, so no.

Q. How much is it?
A. Reasonably priced.

Q. Show the back.
A. The back is too ugly to be shown.

 

Well I'm clearly a sucker for New Age product - already places my pre-order for these guys!!  

 

The fact that the feet don’t touch the ground at the inside back bugs me a little, but otherwise they look good!

 

Looks like it might be. Is reflector really that difficult to engineer? Given the miraculous things we're seeing 3Ps pull off with some of the movie bots, I'm surprised we haven't seen a miraculous reflector yet.

I think better music would have been Photograph by Def Leppard or The Camera Eye by Rush

 

The frontside of the camera look like the backpack of the figure for me

 

Neat.
These guys look pretty cool, even if I like MS's accessories better, I like the less lanky proportions on these guys.
I will likely go with whichever one is smaller.

 

yeah that is totally what is going on. but they photoshopped the line of the panel that folds down for the camera mode. but you can clearly see that the backpack has a hinge.

 

The camera is a cgi render, the seams aren't visible.

 

i was just talking about the renders where the line is gone but the hinge remains. it is clearly visible on the finished bot.
