    Cyclonus retool? That's pretty neat. Curious to see the differences in vehicle mode.

    Assuming these are indeed real
    While I do really like Twincast's colorscheme. I'm honestly kinda disappointed that this comes with Reward and not Flipsides.
    I wan my funny pink clueless cassette girl darnit

    I could care less about the regular sized chest window thing that is really not important to me at all.

    That Metalhawk looks pretty neat though 10/10

    I was actually looking forward to Metalhawk, but with the yellowing issue still present I would be cautious of those hip and thigh parts.
    *sigh*

    Wonder if Metalhawk will have any homage to the pretender gimmick. I’m not as keen on a human face as some but so far there’s nothing beyond the inner bot

    bombburst gets a new mold and metalhawk, an actual main character, gets a retool... what on earth.

    its passable but im mostly worried about the altmode.

    Twincast is expected. Weird that it looks like no retooling to the chest to extend it. Like that rewind is clear.

    So it turns out Metalhawk is a retool. No not of Armada Starscream or Jhiaxus like predicted… but instead cyclonus?? Interesting. I look forward to seeing better images of him. Probably a pass at this point.

    I really like that Legacy metal hawk. I never got the cyclonus mold because the head looked a little strange to me so I'm excited to get this one, but I really wish they wouldn't use that milky gray plastic. That's a slight bummer.

    That blaster though.....
    Can I get marvel blaster now please?.

    I was not expecting Cyclonus to Metalhawk but the Kingdom mold is way too good for me to complain
