    I’m very much falling in love with the looks of these guys. The only thing holding me back is, the articulation hasn’t been well shown off.
    Like, I can see it has some, but the promo shots just aren’t showing how much they’re capable of.

    Welp,
    I broke down and preordered them both l.
    Lol,
    I suppose if it comes out that they’re not well articulated I can still cancel,
    But gosh do they look nice.

    I can't recall ever seeing Hot Rod's design either, just Rodimus Prime's. Does anyone know if it existed before or if it was created for this? Definitely has a cartoon based head with a lot of toy detailing.

    Hopefully we will get an Optimus in this line. I loved the one they released some years ago but it was huge and out of my budget.

    Definitely in for both of them the Studio Ox aesthetic has always spoke to me.

    That's about as close to transforming as a non-transforming toy can be. Matrix-activated shoulder extensions!

    This looks so chunky and fun. I hate that I want this and hate that I am almost certainly going to get it.

    The question is do I also want Galvatron?

    Definitely, closest looking Rodimus Prime to the Studio Ox art so far. Neat gimmicks and more articulation than expected. Roddy looks pretty much ready to go. gimme.

    I skimmed this thread and didn't see anything, but are these up for preorder yet? They're 2nd quarter so end of summer-ish?
