    I wouldn't mind if Hasbro did the IDW1 Cybertronian Superion design as a set of 5 Aerialbots in Legacy. That would fit in well with these new Gamer Edition stuff.

    Also I can't post a pic rn but the IDW1 Cybertronian Superion design is how he looks like before he gets fatally damaged and eventually upgraded by Wheeljack into the CW design.

    While I love the idea of the removable arms to create the game-style weapons, it'd be amazing if they could have made the figures even more modular so we could make our abominations from multiplayer modes.

    Bruticus is something I could see myself buying, especially if the FOC Combaticons were bigger than their original toys.

    Hope that means they’ll be in Canada soon too! I’m really excited to get my hands on Bumblebee and Barricade.

    Even if they're not bigger, I really just want them to be built more solidly, and with no compromising scramble city function. Give me the Big Bad Dudicus 12 year old me dreamed of in plastic form and I'll pay any amount.

    Yeah I think back then Warpath was my number one wish, but I'll always buy Wheeljack.

    Has/Tak did it better over 10 years ago. You need to stop making excuses for garbage engineering.

    So...

    I got a feeling Ratchet/Ironhide will be one of the next figures we get since they are an easy repaint to get the other but distance from the 86 ones. Also since Ratchet is one of the first 3 Autobots we meet and can play as in the game.

    I still have the originals packed away... some where...

    Prime is instant bought on sight! Barricade is fine, I'll have to see it in hand before I can make a decision on him. As for Bee, I'm perfectly happy with the OG, however is it wrong to just want the new Bee for the extra weapons and just leave him in vehicle mode?

    It is a beautiful vehicle mode so I would say no, not really.

    I'm seriously falling out of love with OP and Bee. Not that they aren't good figures, I just don't have a real place on the shelf. I may drop the preorders and wait for a sale.

    Just found out something really interesting

    Bumblebee doesn't use the plasma cannon from the game

    Nice catch! I thought it looked a little different, seems the designers looked at the trailer quite a bit considering the different modes for Prime’s axe.
