    Love those stealth force toys, I hope the concept does well and they decide to revive MASK.

    I wanted to get one of each character for the smallest RPM's, but the shoddy distribution for the last few 2-packs stateside kinda ruined that. Wait and see on these new ones, but pass on the stealth force stuff.

    Oh primus I shouldn't have clicked this thread. Stealth Force is awesome, and I even want some of the mini cars.

    WOW! the stealth force are really cool! Sometimes i buy toys for me, and sometimes i buy them for "my nephews/Kids i'll have in the future". that whole line will be bought, but now I have to decide for who.... damn choices. :) 

    And the MASK comment is a good one. makes you wonder if they're testnig the waters a bit....

    I wasn't crazy about the RPM line when it was just Hotwheels cars with robots on the bottom. But darn that Stealth Force is such a cool tribute to MASK that I've just got to collect the line. Kind of nice the way they seem to be mixing different lines into Stealth Force so if it takes off who knows what sort of cool stuff we might get out of it.

    yeha, that inferno is a really interesting take. Curious how much different vibes they are getting in here, i really love the Hound.

    Probably not actually gonna buy these, but they are interesting and look like fun toys.

    disappointingly severe lack of new molds in the main line (surprised looking at the stealth force line the don't dip into other lines, G1/Classics, RiD, AEC for some new molds), don't really get the Double Siders, and the Robot Riders are just terrible.

    Edit: that 2-pack packaging is super-snazzy BTW.

    Those Double Siders and Robot Riders are just about as ugly as toys come, but I must admit, some of those Stealth Force vehicles look pretty cool. I'm going to skip all of these though. I like my Transformers to, you know, transform.

    Profoundly unimpressed.

    Transformers that don't become robots = FAIL. They're even less extensive than M.A.S.K. and no little figures either.

    Ah man, that Inferno deco is the shizzle. All the Stealth Force toys look really cool, and it looks like Soundwave is now officially a tricked out Scion in all but the movieverse. Hopefully that will carry on into TF: Prime cos it's a really cool alt mode.
