    It’s like how certain people were wary about getting SS Ironhide in store because they saw the right eye and thought all the figures were damaged lol

    Those look like Hasbro photoshoots rather than actual in hand fan photos.

    Was this true? I know people were unaware oh his asymmetry, but at least it was obvious on Megatron in the movie lol

    True, but I guess they might also be pandering to the causal consumer/ parent (do parents still buy these for their kids?) who see a screen accurate wound as unattractive and won’t buy the figure

    Megatron coming with a Igor oddly reminds me of the old Ninja Turtles toys and how almost every figure after a certain time would come with a little sidekick guy.

    I'm sold on Megatron, Jetfire, and Barricade. Pass on the rest of these.

    Man that jetfire prime actually looks pretty good. I don’t think I’ll get it but it seems nice. I just really want Megatron and WW2 Bumblebee.

    Jetfire's robot mode looks ok (the face is rather disturbing, though), but there seems to be a lot of kibble under that jet mode. More so, it seems, than the original Leader version.
    The combined mode with Optimus looks promising, though.

    DOTM Megatron looks decent, but doesn't seem that there's ant articulation between the truck and trailer, unlike the original Voyager. If so, that would be disappointing.
    I hope I'm wrong about that.

    They look really close using the box and Blackout as a rough reference. Plus with how bendy the legs are with these Megatrons they'll line up perfectly no matter what.

    Good thing I'm buying Jetfire for the combined mode and my love of SR-71's. That face looks like Treebeard and Odin had a love child that was Borgified.

    And I feel like it's judging me. o_O

    Despite the robot bits hanging under Jetfire, that figure looks so good in jet mode.
