    Pleeease do 2007 Optimus, Megatron, Blackout, and Starscream. They are standout designs from the first movie, and you guys would absolutely crush those. They’d probably become some of my holy grail figures. Add 2007 Bee too, since he’d be an easy retool of this TLK one haha. Thanks for participating on the boards and interacting with us!

    Yeah baby! Definitely wanna see more carbot-sized figures from this line (Drift, 07 Bee, TLK Barricade, etc) as well as larger bots, but since I already have your TLK Prime in premium scale I will prioritize things that go well with him. I'm not that interested in TLK bee but since he goes well with TLK OP you have my money!

    Onboard for this and others from the older movies. Would be great to get a DOTM Shockwave.

    Not my favorite BB by far... But also not too expensive. I really would have preferred the '76 Camaro version before any thing else as we've NEVER gotten even a slightly good version of that BB.

    There are so many characters I would add to that list like Ironhide, ROTF/DOTM Megatron, 07/DOTM Optimus, Sentinel, 07 Barricade etc. but I think the best way to settle this would be through facebook polls like they used to do in the past. @decemberist are those likely to happen again? BTW, your presence here is much appreciated indeed! For now I am happy that the TLK line is happening and this time maybe TLK Barricade gets made as well. Would look so good to have him paired up with Megatron next to Bee and Prime.

    I just wish they would pay a bit more attention to scale between characters. Their premium scale is all over the place. Their deluxe scale so far is ok but still off. I'm not a scale junky but I at least like it in tha ballpark.

    Man I'd absolutely love to see a DLX 2007 Barricade figure, that design is so beautiful and it's been a fan favorite for years, please consider making it!

    Would love to see them do some older designs. Ideally at least Primes bodies. The premium scale has been too large for myself so the DLX scale is great.

    Would personally love it if they did these in DLX form.

    Blackout is probably one of the best designs from the Bayformers. Really not a fan of the AOE and TLK designs, besides Megatron & Lockdown from TLK.

    We need more TF1-3 DLX figures. Just picturing these as DLX figures with some amazing articulation and detail makes me want them even more.

    I do hope the Premium format continues too (and scaling with each other would also be nice). The ones you listed are all imposing pieces, very worthy of the premium treatment. Imagine how much more presence they would have plus the extra detail they would pack in that size.

    Am I wrong in thinking that "deluxe scale" just means that all the figures are roughly the same size and not actually in scale with each other?

    I've never broken down and paid the prices for any of these figures. But if they made a Deluxe scale Sentinel, that may very well change.

    You are correct.

    Could prob replace all the CG Bumblebee scenes with this thing so it’ll have practical effects to help it hold up over time.
    There’s a good reason Jaws & Aliens is still effective.

    At a fraction of the budget.

    Or do the next one with practical effects

    And just like that, I no longer care for the entire deluxe line.

    just look at their bumblebee movie Optimus, and Bee, they're NOT SAME in size, also can be considered IN SCALE each other

    He's barely that much taller than he should be. As a matter of fact, NONE of their Transformers figures are to correct scale with one another. Never really bothered me though since they're usually close enough for me.

    If they made Bee and Optimus the same height, then I would say it looks bad but at least Bee is smaller than Optimus. Same goes with Blitzwing.

    Yeah, the scale in this line isn't accurate but it's close enough. Basically the smaller characters will be small and the larger characters will be large. It's good enough for me personally.
