    These look to be deluxe sized? flip out fists with no wrist swivels and the seemingly lower parts count puts this in CHUG territory. The alt modes are aces. real cars done well. They have a GTR and a race version of an audi TT from the same mold/remold. thats great.

    just want to point this out, it may go well with a lost light collection.it aint really accurate, but its a lot slimmer than most the gcreation 1, and would fit with the mtmte asthetic better

    I hadn't noticed, the artwork and prototypes don't do that and I didn't take a close enough look at the knees of the latest version.

    The old pic of prototypes on display has a 3rd car on the left in white instead of grey like the others. That might be Bluestreak, just not as far along as these two.

    Really nice looking. I'm gonna wait on a size though before I try to jump on them.

    Was thinking the same thing. Definitely fit in with the design of Alternity which I’m cool with.

    I was about to comment on that. It's a really nice, simple piece of engineering that works super well to clean up the design.

    I’m digging these, though I really wish the knees folded down as they do in the drawings.

    No, though they're stylistically similar.

    And I'm really happy they don't, because it would result (based on the drawing) on huge knee caps. Alternators Grimlock and Wheeljack had that and this would be that but bigger. It may look okay in drawing, but in real life it would be a huge bulge that would disrupt the look of the figure.

    I really hope these are deluxe. I hope that CHUG collectors will come out and support them so we can potentially get more. We have got literally nothing in the deluxe scale for a long time.
    That Prowl is so much better than the classics version.

    i like the big bulge on the kneecap, but that’s just an aesthetic difference of opinion. Nothing wrong with that. I still like the overall design, and, assuming all else is goo, will likely get these.
