    If this has been created already, I apologize. Please merge.

    But if not, now that we have some reveals, it's time to do some PotP appreciating.

    So far we've seen:

    Leader Rodimus Prime
    Voyager Starscream
    Deluxe Dreadwind
    Deluxe Darkwing
    Deluxe Jazz
    Legends Beachcomber
    Prime Master Skullgrin

    With the exception of Starscream, I'm REALLY loving what they revealed so far. The 3rd chapter in the Prime Wars Trilogy looks like another home run by HasTak.

    Loving the play integration of both Combiner Wars and Titans Return along with a new gimmick in armoring up Deluxes, Voyagers, and Leaders in what appears to be a similar concept to Takara God Bomber/Ginrai = God Ginrai.

    Go ahead appreciate away!

    You can still appreciate the line without owning the figures.

    Also, check the date on the Titans Return Appreciation Thread. It's never too early.

    This happened with the TR thread as well. No big deal.

    Anyways. I'm getting Beachcomber, the Decepticons Powermasters, and Rodimus for sure. I'm excited for more stuff later today.

    Was there supposed to be more reveals? Because I'm stoked enough for the pics we've already seen today.

    What we've seen so far is just the preview. More stuff comes at the official panel starting in 12 mins.

    To each their own I guess, to me still seems more like a hype thread than an appreciation one at this stage in the line

    Yep. Although the panel is also for TLK, RID, and Movie Masterpiece, so it might take a little while for the pictures to go up.

    I can already appreciate this line for giving me a chance at a CHUG Jazz without having to track down the Reveal the Shield version.

    With Jazz being CW-compatible, I'm guessing they'll make a CW-style Sideswipe and Windcharger to go with CW Optimus and Mirage in order to complete the "Masquerade" combiner.

    I'm more hyped for the inevitable G1.5 retools of him.

    Dude with Beachcomber coming all I need is for an Outback out of Brawn, Hubcap, and hell I'd take a Bumper, Tap Out, & Glyph because why not. Legends scaled Minibots are just another step towards completion on the CHUG side!

    I'm on the fence about Jazz. It's still early but I like the United/RTS version better. I don't hate PotP Jazz though. I'll probably get him.

    I'm REALLY going to miss the Legends class when the Prime Wars Trilogy is over. All of them have been nothing short of amazing.

    I'm really interested in seeing how this line turns out. Looks like we may have some fun, non-intrusive gimmicks this time around. Plus, I am so glad to have trailer armour power ups back. I just hope we see that for more than just Rodimus. Oh and I am so glad that I can get a Deluxe Hod Rod that isn't a HM. I just hope it looks decent.

    The wings on Rodimus Prime turn me off a bit. I know that's actually Hot Rod in there, but they're so small when you make him into Rodimus.

    I am pretty excited, loving that they are extending the play pattern out!
