    They look fantastic for Earthrise. It’s aesthetic is too earth based. I too am hoping that it’s compatible

    They won't fit Earthrise, the shoulder part is completely different. The smoke stake and half the peghole is molded on one side of the arm, and the rest of the peg hole is molded on the other side. It's not a flap like Siege. Also Earthrise is pinned verse being screwed on the Seige figure.

    I hope they make a set for Earthrise Prime. The ports on the stacks look hideous.

    IMO, of course.

    A set that extended so you can have long stacks in vehicle mode and shorter ones in robot mode would be nice to have.

    Same here. Just some things about the ER that don't look as good as Siege one to me. I plan to see if it's possbile to do some "parts" swapping.

    Match the reds and I may have to give this kit a second look;) .

    It looks a bit off to me as well.

    Other than that, these are.....okay, I guess. Personally, I find them rather unnecessary and I don't feel they add anything to the figure. Most people seem to want something as close to Sunbow G1 Optimus as possible, and hey, I love that design too, but I actually like the Siege design for the differences rather than in spite of them. I think the more compact exhaust pipes suit Siege OP better. Guess I'm just weird that way. :)

    Honestly for what is just a small detail, I really like how these look. I especially like them more than the plug-on smokestacks that you can get with the Toyhax labels.

    Shockwave should create flip covers for all the titans return figures... there are plenty to do for forearms to legs, and in some cases the body that does not affect transformation.
