    That Purple Chrome is just...well, bad. If it were closer in color to the actual purple, maybe.

    Wow, Chromia and Windblade look a lot better than they did in stock photos.

    Nice photos. Hasbro also sent my outlet these, I haven't had time to take my middling photos but I was more impressed with the fembots and with Dev in person (as well as the Kreon set, so fun) than I was in preview photos.

    My SDCC Dev had 2 right hands, I have terrible luck with these things.


    Ha! Her smile is incongruous with that giant weapon.

    Do sites like HST, TFS, and BBTS usually sell SDCC exclusives?

    Hmm. I really like that black and Arcee, but I'm not a huge fan of the others.

    That Arcee is horrible. It looks like G1 Arcee trying to cosplay IDW Arcee. That smile completely ruins it.

    Assassin Azalea is already very close to this deco for Arcee, sadly it was an exclusive and the time to get is long passed. I think MMC actually put out this deco before it showed up in the comics...

    They make a great posse.

    I agree completely.

    With that smile and that face paint....definitely.

    The more I see these, the more I want them. Hoping someone brings them to TFCon so I don't have to deal with HTS.

    Great photo shoot! Nice work with the poses, angles, lighting, and that stand really helped, too.

    The paint apps on the femme trio look decent, the colors are great, somehow this Chromia's paint apps help her look less like a stocky butch woman, and overall the set looks great together. The giant weapons really work well as a scale juxtaposition with the figures, and overall it will be a big seller.

    I think I'll pass on it, primarily because Windblade's and Arcee's alt modes look terrible (also, Chromia's back kibble is of epic proportions) and while I'd likely display them robot mode, I don't really have any need or use for three femmebots. They don't really go with the rest of my collection.

    Yeah, I still hate that paint job on Chromia, with her hideous tribal tattoo design on her bike mode and her Ultimate Warrior face paint.

    I like the Arcee and Windblade paint jobs, though as others have said Arcee's face spoils it somewhat. G1 Arcee displaying as IDW Arcee indeed.

    I hope the Combiner Hunters aren't too hard to get a hold of online and for a reasonable price.

    Haha, Lego Ice planet rocks. Her transparent bits need to be more orange though ... and she needs an orange transparent chainsaw.
