    Sentinel is awesome and I'll be shocked if the Ark doesnt transform into a bot in the movie if that's the design.

    Very impressed with a lot of the design in this film.

    Someone mentioned that Sentinel had very little movie aesthetics and I quite agree,its almost like Hasbro (and to an extent Bay) might be giving us Classic type characters to tie them in with the CHUG line.

    I also say Sentinel,The Ark,and a bunch of others are really making my mouth water to get them,AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH May can't get here fast enough,I so want these NOW,NOW,NOW,NOW,NOW.

    Probably because there wasn't a giant gold vehicle around to scan when he landed.

    And yes, frickin' awesome :D

    Sold. Must Own. Gimeh.

    When they scan a vehicle they replicate not only its shape but also its colour... In the trailer we see Sentinel prior to his arrival on earth, thus sporting his actual cybertronian colours...

    Sentinal prime looks great. My favorite DOTM toy right behind Shockwave. That shield gimmick looks unobtrusive, too. Looks like it adds a lot of playability.

    Erm...No it's not. They're completely different. The shapes don't match, movie Sentinel's helmet doesn't reach around his entire head, TFA Sentinel doesn't even have a crest in the middle...There are no similarities whatsoever. o_O

    So this is where Hasbro pumped the most of their design money lol

    Sentinal Prime looks absolutely fantastic. not 1 single complaint. He looks like a knight of the round table. Very Heroic. He's gonna be a great piece to stand next to my ROTF Leader Prime.

    I wonder if Takes Faces as trophies as well.

    The Ark looks nice as well. I feel I've seen this design before someplace.

    The robot design actually looks really nice. Nothing crazy going on with the design and other than the face he could easily pass for something like a Gundam.

    Between him and Shockwave it kind of begs the question of why the hell couldn't they do stuff like from the beginning instead of waiting until now to break away from all the weird stuff?

    The Ark has me wondering what the scale is like because if it was something that would fit with 4" figures I could see kids and collectors getting it to use with their action figure lines like Star Wars, Marvel, Thunder Cats and GI Joe, not just their Transformers stuff.

    As I understand it, it's in scale with Legends-class, so a bit on the small side for 3.75" figs.
