    I like that Primal is now considered mainstream enough to receive a "kiddy" toy just like Prime, Bee, Grimlock etc. Progress!

    These look like a lot of fun. Good sign for BW fans if Hasbro is integrating them with the intro line.

    Also love the rockets in gorilla mode.

    You say this literally every time someone mentions the word "mold"

    I dont know if you think it's just such a funny joke that you have to repeat it dozens of times, or you legitimately don't understand what everyone else means by "mold".

    I really like the look of the Classic Heroes Team figures. I think these show that kiddy gimmick figures can be done well, or at least look appealing (to be fair I haven't played with them myself). Sure they're overly simple, but they look appealing in terms of proportions and whatnot, and look sturdy to play with. Not sure I'd buy them as an adult, but they definitely seem like the sort of thing I'd have had a ton of fun with as a kid had I gotten ahold of them. In hindsight, I actually wish I had more of this sort of simple Transformers figure growing up.

    The Titan Changer figures, on the other hand, just look awful to me. Awkward proportions, ugly sculpts, way too lanky, way too big and clunky to handle, and too simplistic for their size. Sure I'm not the target audience, but...do kids even like these? Or are they solely intended to be bought by naïve grandmas who are shopping for gifts at Dollar General? I dunno, these sort of figures always feel off to me. I can imagine a kid legitimately loving the Heroes Team figures (or at least having a good playtime or two with them), whereas these feel like the sort of thing you'd pretend to be excited about, then promptly throw in the garage.

    I might just have to get Optimus Primal even though I don't collect Rescue Bots or Rescue Bots academy figures,for some reason just seeing Optimus Primal in a line that's meant for younger kids is so cool and also younger generations get to experience Beast Wars characters.

    That's generally how packaging works, yes.
