$40 you say? Hmmmmm... *checks wallet* Some Non-CGI pics would definitely seal the deal & I hope it's engineered via the same means as a TF (rather than a Roadbot...)

 

Great that these guys are finally getting this thing out but if you're gonna make a transforming robot and you start with a brick/bus you better come up with a pretty damn good robot mode.

I also have to say that scale is gonna make my decision for me. I have a hard enough time putting the RID trains in my display and IMO they are pretty sweet robots

 

Godammit I know it's simplistic, but why does that CG transformation make me more excited than any onscreen transformation in Michael Bay's movies?

Oh because the camera wasn't moving all over the place and the transformation wasn't overly complex and as an audience member you can enjoy seeing where each bus piece ends up in robot mode. Transformers 101, these bus guys get it. Bay does not.

This looks like it will be an amazing toy! Hope we see actual prototypes soon  

 

It's 11 inches long in alt mode and 8 inches high in robot mode. Get a ruler and check again! Deluxe size? Pah. He'll be longer than the RID train brothers. But in scale with smaller figures because of the size of his alt. This is why I'm excited!

For some relevance, he'll at least come up to the top of Classic Jetfire's upper wing, and he'll be at least 3 scout Cyb. Armorhides long at 11 inches in alt mode.

 

Nice! That's a great scale IMHO  

 

i preordered a year ago on the official website. wonder should i cancel and go through bbts? anyone else doing the same?

 

Hm, went ahead an preordered it. Worst comes to worst and I just cancel it if I don't like how the real product pictures look.

Besides, I have enough stuff preordered through BBTS. Might as well add some more to the pile.

 

Looks very cool. I'll probably wait to read initial reviews once its released to see what the quality is like but I'm definitely interested!

 

I suppose the novelty of a segmented bus transformers is worth a spot in my PoL.

 

i lol'd

xD

nice!

 

its Autobus in figure form!  

 

Interested but I want to see how articulated it is before I put any money aside for it.

 

Definitely considering this guy. They've started advertising the guy over here so, that's pretty rad. (I'm in Germany, FYI).

Did anyone else notice that the transforming noises in the video are from RobotJox?

 

Hmmmm....Interesting but probably not a buy for me.

 

A brick shaped vehicle that turns into a brick shaped robot? Unacceptable!

Also, seekers shouldn't have wings in robot mode.

 

what was the address for that flash game?

nevermind, got it.

for anyone interested it's really fun and here's the address: http://www.twk-kl.de/irj/portalapps/robobuz/index.htm

 

already preordered this from robobuz website

cost around £21 and about 9-10 euros shipping and handlind expenses (£8)

altogether about £30 which is pretty good for a bus

 

Vorsprung durch Technik! Pre-ordered.  

 

Yep when you look at the size and compare it to Hasbro figures of the same size then $40 really isn't all that high. Throw in the that other dealers might offer for a price lower than that and it's a nice deal if the figure is Hasbro quality or better.
