    Will the starscream be voyager sized? I really hope so as I can use it for my CHUG collection.

    I'm quite honestly considering this. I normally don't care for anything outside of MP and FP style add ons, but I'm always up for displaying more seekers with my seekers.
    I also hope it's voyager sized. As I've got Seekers in just about every scale Voyager would go well with a lot of my other Starscreams (heck I'd love to have an FOC Starscream in the same size as Galaxy Force Starscream.) I also just realized a voyager would actually make FOC Soundwave feel much less lonely and out of scale.
    WFC was one of the best Optimus figures out there for sure. That said if they up the size it might do good. Plus it's fun to see different approaches to the same design sometimes.

    WFC Optimus is indeed a perfectly fine figure. But, if the picture is to be believed, Planet X is making a figure based off of Optimus' Fall of Cybertron design. A design that IMO, deserves a much better figure than the decent but woefully under-engineered Generations figure.

    Prime... very interested. I hated the design at first but it really grew on me. I even think the deluxe mold is a fun toy to mess with!

    Voyager Seekers FTW!

    PX is really killing it lately, and I just hope they keep it up. :D

    Quietly optimistic about these. I probably wont pick up the seekers but maybe Prime. It does bode well for seeing some other characters too. With any luck we may see a Megatron and Shockwave from PX at some point. I'd love to see them tackle the insecticons.
    Is it just me or does anyone else think their Perceptor could be retooled into an IDW Guzzle?
    WFC/FOC Demolisher too please Planet-X.

    1st off That Optimus needs a matrix cavity. Second, we need a dark energon infused megatron and grimlock based off the tank from that game instead of seekers. And what about slipstream?

    Prime, yes most definitely. Id have rather they pick another character from the FOC/WFC roster instead. Ironhide or Warparth come to mind immediatly. And from the Decepticon side Bombshell and Shrapnel come to mind.

    I'd love them to tackle Bumblebee. A smaller bot to go with the rest would be nice. Cliffjumper, Silverbolt, Airraid... or even the generic decepticons!

    I'd really like it if they made a figure of Zeta Prime. He looked like he would translate well into plastic, considering his smoother edges, as opposed to the harder lines of some of the other characters (Starscream, Megatron, and Soundwave spring to mind).

    I would only be interested if the Seekers are close to voyager class. The Hasbro toys are great. But I need a good set of voyager sized seekers

    I don't have Vulcun yet, but wouldn't making these guys Voyagers make them kind of big in comparison?

    Yea they would no longer scale with PX own dinobots.

    They would all have to be deluxes

    That's what I thought. I'd much rather have them be deluxes, then.

    If Planet X's version of Optimus is around the size of a Voyager then I am completely sold.

    Though I'm a bit surprised at the Starscream announcement. The Hasbro version is pretty good on it's own and a fraction of the usual 3rd party price. Would have gone with Springer or Ratchet personally.
