    I mentioned back on page 5 that I think the red makes him look just like Malbro Wheeljack. But he's not the same colour as the one that comes with his ship that is mostly white.

    As I said on Page 5 I hope that they still include his swords with him and that likewise Knockout has his staff if he gets slightly repainted and sold as a single carded item. But looking at The picture I can't even see a way for the swords to attach so I guess they be missing... (shame)

    I think the black Bumblebee on reflection is something i'd have liked to see with the Bumblebee exo-Mech-suit toy. that would have added a little interest to it to have a black bee with it.

    I f that thing really does lack any kind of head than that really does it no favours in my view - if it can combine with the other sets then it still might be worth getting I suppose.

    And I guess it's easy enough for someone to make it a head as a 3rd party item.

    Airachnid is a little underwhelming, but I'm sure it'll be great once I get it in hand.

    Legion Wheeljack's got a green booger blaster. XD The Flamewar redeco of Arcee looks interesting but not enough to warrant a buy. Bee redeco's, no thanks. As for getting Dead End to repaint into his classic colors, it's a strong possibility but I'm still annoyed we have to DIY in the first place. Maybe Reprolabels can come out with something to cover up all that horrible yellow and green.

    Are Ultra Magnus and that weird optimus Cyberverse figures?...that prime doesn't look like a deluxe.

    Airachnid looks cool, don't like the weapons though.

    Airachnid looks great. I love the Magnus design, just wish he weren't a cyberverse figure. Dead End looks like shit.

    Yeah, the bot does seem to have too much white and less kibble. But after zooming in, I have to conclude it's UMagnus as well. The bulky upper torso of UMagnus match that Mech Suit pic. The head seems to be blue as well. If that mech suit pic is accurate, maybe the cab portion is white like G1.

    Wish I could see what's happening around Airachnid's head. Is that silhouette-clashing/articulation-limiting kibble? I guess head articulation being limited by surrounding detail isn't anything new to Prime, but the silhouette thing bugs me. I'm hoping for mistransformation, because her head's shape is SO characterful and essential.

    Well, Airachid is dissappointing.

    Dead End is a tad dissappointing, seeing that Runble gets his own mold. But I'll probably buy him.

    Ultra Magnus is boss. He can deal with it.

    Based on the colors I think that's just Hot Shot.

    I LOVE Magnus & Airracchnid! I'm particular feeling her weapons! They are VERY BW BA inspired! I nice subtle nod! And If your not feeling the The "legs" I foresee somebody making/selling a set of 3 blades that "split" into 6! Personally I'm ok with em!

    I don't know about everything else but Ultra Magnus popping up in any form is a good thing. I hope we see some larger figures of him to.

    I'd buy Dead End just to get the Wheeljack mold again. Really great engineering on it. And DE's colors look pretty bitchin'.

    Airachnid (or Airracchnid, lol) looks pretty good. Hope she has the spider "stalker" mode, but it won't be a big loss to me - that toy actually looks pretty good as it is. I may call her something else because of it (maybe Flame War or somethin'), but whatever.

    That Ultra Magnus looks freakin' amazing. I hope they throw him in the show and/or make a Voyager outta him. And looking at him, he seems very similar to Optimus. Maybe he's related to Optimus/Orion Pax in some way, but unlike Orion, never became a Prime.
