    Now that I see the official pics of Giant's head, the only thing I would change (since it's apparently a prototype) is the position of the face. It looks so drawn in compared to the rest of his helmet which kind of makes it hard to see. No wonder in almost every pic of him you can't even see it. Also nice to see him in a more actiony pose. He looks pretty stable/solid.

    I love the individual bots. Hook and Mixmaster are my favorites.

    That isn't the final head. It was said at the Cherry Bomb Toy Show that that is a place holder head. They're still developing the real combiner head.

    Yes, I know. I'm just stating what I'd like changed on the final version.

    Looking surprisingly nice! Still not enough to make me want the yellow versions, but gives me added confidence that the green box set is going to look really awesome!

    I kinda like the blue eyes. It makes it diff from the Geewun version even more. blue is a nice color on yellow though. I can almost make them the "heroic" constructicons.

    Maybe the blue for Bonecrusher symbolizes something? The Concept art shows all the others w/ Red eyes.

    I wonder what it could symbolize though. Anything from mythos? I can't recall anything.

    Only thing notable about Bonecrusher was his anger problem. If I had a clue beyond that, I'd've at least mentioned it.

    They look good but don't feel like constructicons to me. I'm getting more of a buildking feel out of it.

    it appears from the concept art that the 6 bots really have 3 heights, and if the first two color bots of the same height are an indication that they'll be release as the first pack, it's possible that the 3 two-packs will be pairs with the same height.

    Guesses on the next 2 packs?

    That's the perfect way to go down. You will be hyped until the Body release because you can't even form anything until then.
