    These looks pretty nice! I wonder what their price point will be? I'm kind of tired of paying the premium price tag for the smaller, no die-cast, FP stuff. Anybody think they are going to get with the program and maybe lower their prices a bit?

    I do like their designs, just the price isn't that fetching...

    Considering they're smaller and don't include the little dudes.... but they come with extra weapons... I'm gonna guess they'll be $89. If we're LUCKY they'll only be $79, but I won't get my hopes up.

    Y'know, I think takara and hasbro can learn from this. All the dinobots are dumb and male, except swoop maybe. I think if she was a touch smarter and tried to fit in witht the dinobots, and with the exceptance, and grimlock trying to except her, but realises who cares, we're all dinosaur's, and maybe with the dinobots trying to understand what love is, that'd be a great comic issue, but the toy's not for me, not g1 material.

    I really wish some third parry makers, besides mp characters and a select few chug, would make switchable face plates. I would love to have characters with more emotive faces. Looking at overlord from mmc, i not only know it is overlord, but feel it is overlord. The personality that his expression gives the character adds a whole new layer of depth to him. I would love a pissed, bloodthirsty look for these bots instead of the regular stern facing forward look/mmc azalea duck face

    I am hoping some fans / reviewers can give positive criticism to MT / FP at a convention or other event, and let them know it would be really good if they include bicep swivel and not make the elbow articulation limited. I am sure something more basic than the MMC Azalea structure could be incorporated.

    I really wish I had played more with the prototype at TFCon, and told them myself and see what could be the issue preventing this. It's just I didn't think of checking all the articulation point. And I had it in my hands too.... damn it, why didn't I check.

    Given that that these are pretty much the first figures with out it that FP has done (excluding the glacial combiner) that doesn't have it means there was a reason for it and not that they didn't want to. I'm leaning towards fragility.

    Looks like it will be the same price as FP's Grimlock

    If that's true, no way. I'll wait for a sale price. I'd buy two for $120. Not one.

    Most probably these sisters\twins will be a set that's the reason it will be as same price as FP's Grimlock

    Where are you getting this pricing info?

    You really can drop that fact without a source

    Technically as they are a complete new character they could fit into any size class.. they really have no pre-concieved scale ;)

    Thank you!

    I wasn't trolling at all, but i was wondering if they are about the same size (scale wise) as the Fanstoys's Dinobots...

    Again, since they are NOT existing characters with ANY fictional appearances, how could they SCALE with anything?

    Size-wise, they look a bit smaller than Severo...

    ^ that is an old pic for two years ago. They may have made her smaller, not sure, there were discussions on it anyways.
