    Kinda love how Optimus Primal just cannibalizes basic class Beast Wars Megatron’s body for armor here.

    I love that Primal can have both a Skullcruncher armor and a Skullcruncher gun. I really hope they make a "core" Skullcruncher figure so it can just be alligators all the way down.

    A wolf transformer named Silverfang...wondering if anybody involved in this happens to be a Werewolf: the Apocalypse fan. Definitely thinking I might get him and Arcee and the Optimus and Chainclaw set. Add to my little cyberwolf pack.

    [RAGE MODE ON!] I'M GOING TO DUMP ON THIS MASSIVE DUMP OF A ROTB KIDDIE LINE REVEALS...... with some cash. :p 

    Most of these are actually quite interesting/functional in terms of gimmick, and they mostly look great for what they are. Hasbro's put some real effort in making these better than previous lines. That Arcee looks a lot better than the SS Core class. Damn, I can see the kids want to collect them all.

    I usually don't care for the kids lines (not in the rage-y way, just in the "not for me" way). Some of these look real fun though. Really wishing that Arcee had articulation, definitely does look better than the core class. Really hoping she gets a deluxe later on, I really like the design.

    Version for kids is very good! As an advanced collectioner I cannot accept it, unfortunately.

    I'm just mocking the real Rage-y types. They should seek help, post-haste LOL. I mean, yeah, some of their concerns are legit, but a kid line is a kid line, if the kids are interested, find some fun and made for durability & affordably, I don't see much reasons to complain.

    I\'ll get bumblebee and optimus. 1. Optimus because of how much range of articulation it has 2. Bumblebee, because of the camaro mode, it\'s not the off-road version and I don\'t know if we are gonna get a studio series version of a non off-road bumblebee without it being a remold of the original studio series bumblebee

    Can we all appreciate that Arrowstripe looks like he’s lying down and doing a sploot in crossbow mode?

    Alright toys but it would've really sold me if there was more paint.

    Do we know generally how big the target master Prime and Primal will be? Tbh I'm hoping they're more along core class, but they look like they could even be smallish deluxes

    Battle Masters (Cheetor, Rhinox, Skullcruncher): Buying all 3 of these (and whatever else gets made) for my Generations figures. For modern equivalents of Action Master partners at $6 each, I’d be crazy not to.

    Beast Weaponizers: Might get Optimus Prime and Chainclaw (it’s a chainsaw and a stupid visual pun, which I appreciate), not sure about Optimus Primal and Arrowstripe. Primal is fine, but Arrowstripe’s crossbow mode is...ehh. It looks like he’s been turned into a tiger-skin rug. I have a hard time taking it seriously.

    Beast Combiners: I wasn’t expecting Spark Armor to come back, but I’m not complaining - it was one of Cyberverse’s better gimmicks. Primal and Skullcruncher are the best of the bunch - I like the combined mode head and tail club. Arcee looks better than the Studio Series Core and her combined mode with Silverfang works surprisingly well. Bumblebee, on the other hand, has a weirdly stretched-out robot mode and an okay vehicle mode with the combined mode being the main strength of his design. If he was sold by himself, I’d skip him. Planning on buying the first two, might get Bumblebee because of Snarlsaber and the combined form.
