    Tigatron won the Kingdom vote, probably out of spite due to a lack of proper reveal.

    How did a figure that’s not out yet get the fan vote?

    Also reusing legs means they can actually deliver these guys at retail costs.

    That just needs you to have the same connector port, not the exact same legs.

    23%

    He and Inferno likely won for the same reason, people wanted Hasbro to know they want those toys.

    So, Laser Prime doesn't have the exact same legs as ER Prime.

    His shins have new sculpting.

    Love Kickback and Laser Prime, but Laser Prime's legs are easily its weakest feature.

    Conspiracy theory: this was Hasbro's roundabout way of officially announcing Tigatron finally

    Have you ever met a designer or engineer that won't futz with connector ports if they have to redesign parts?

    I mean, I voted for Tigatron as a joke because he wasn't actually announced. I assume I wasn't the only one.

    They aren't the exact same.

    They have different sculpting on the shins.

    Reusing a lot of the ER Prime legs probably freed up the budget for the battle station.

    Winners for me are Dragstrip, Kickback, and maybe Laser Prime; like, he looks good but I don't know if he's $53 good with all that unpainted gray plastic and reused legs.

    I missed Arcee so not sure how bad she really is.
