    Yeah, I guess we’ll see. I’d really appreciate Trumpeter kits of the Terrorcons as well. I’m hoping to track down the SS version of Battletrap, but after seeing the recent movie stills compared to the figure, the CGI design definitely has a more athletic silhouette than the figure (although it still looks great)

    It’s sad they haven’t been done yet 5 years later and still nothing (did Arcee before either). 3P company is the only one trying to do one. Also shocked no Starscream still since they had Blitzwing.
    I wish the SS figure was as bulky limb wise as the film mode is. Because the SS in comparison to the film is lanky. Obviously what they had at the time is what they had but still.

    Does Prime have a Matrix opening feature? I'd imagine a piece as this would have one

    Since they didn't show it off on the video, probably not.

    Yeah, share the same feelings. Not taking anything away from what we're seeing of the robot as it looks like it could be an absolute classic, but I had high hopes we might see beasts in the DLX line.

    If I were collecting these, I dare say that there'd be solid market for ThreeZero to be able to sell highly articulated versions of both the bot and beast modes of the beast characters. That way one could display extremely clean and detailed versions of both modes without the compromises transforming figures have to make.

    So, unless they specifically said they weren't doing it, I think they may investigate the possibility of making beast mode figures provided the movie is a success and sales are strong of the existing efforts.

    These guys did a BB blitzwing in G1 colours right? Would be really cool if they do Primal in OG Beast Wars toon colours.

    It’s really ironic how Hasbro always makes thin characters way too wide, but with battletrap who is beefy and wide, they made him too thin.

    Primal looks amazing so far. The money in my wallet is getting warm just thinking about it. I'd love to see a gorilla mode release as well.

    Give me other beasts as well, either robot mode or beast mode!

    ‘WhY wUd AnY1 CoLlEcT nOn-TrAnSfOrMiNg tRaNsFoRmErS?!’

    This is why.

    Thought I was done with collecting movie- verse bots (until 3Zero make DOTM Shockwave) but that Bee and Primal are dragging me back.
    I may have to get all the Beast Wars guys simply to show my support and then pray for a sequel that gives us Rattrap and Dinobot (& Tigatron) to complete the OG Maximal crew.

    Beast mode versions would be awesome, especially for Primal and Cheetor so I’ll keep my fingers crossed.

    Honestly, Optimus primal is probably the only one that is probably gonna go into my collection. From the looks of it, his shoulders are gonna have actual hair, so I\'m excited to see how it will look in the final product.

    I got Battletrap back in feb when he first popped up on Pulse. He's a pretty good figure, but yeah, nowhere near the peak perfection of his movie model. Plus, the arm kibble is pretty bad, visible hands in alt mode, and the bed of the truck doesn't connect to the cab for some reason. Good figure, but not worth full price, imo. I haven't gone in on Trumpeter's kits yet, but the second they announce Battletrap or Nightbird, I'm in.

    Beasts modes would be amazing.
    If Trumpeter does Arcee, I think I'm in and will use that as my SS replacement.

    @decemberist I know this is a DLX thread but are you guys planning on making Optimus Prime & Bumblebee in Premium scale?

    I can only really discuss what has already been announced – just Premium Primal has been announced so far

    Ok, well if they aren't planned can you suggest them to the design team? :)
