    I was thinking it was toys... and then my wallet hurt me--thought I needed a trip to the hospital, but now glad it was just a game.

    Wow, I like most of these. Would definitely get toy versions of Soundwave and Devastator (of course).

    I actually dig that Hot Rod design, mainly for having an alt-mode that resembles a heavily stylized 4th-gen Trans-Am or Camaro. Close in concept to an actual \"hottod\" vs just a high end supercar with flames on the hood. 

    Jazz... I dunno. Seems a bit overly bulky for him.
     I always picture Jazz as more long and lean, like a runner\'s build as opposed to a hulking bruiser.

     I really like that Hound!

    These look great. I'm especially pleased to see a number of fembot designs, and hey! they're not all motorcycles!

    I think that bot design is a bit too beefy for G1 Hound, but I'd love to see it reused for someone like Roadbuster (Wreck n Rule capsule line, season 2?), especially as a WfC-/Legacy-style direct homage is unlikely with Bandai owning the rights to the original Takatoku Mugen Calibur toy design. It could also work well (p)retooled as "Prime Universe" Breakdown and/or IDW Roadmaster.

    And those Roulette and Shadow Striker designs are wonderful!

    I like some of these designs but I do not lament the game's cancellation.

    The AR segments looked neat, the rest did not.

    They chonky.

    I like it. There's something nostalgically pleasing about it with their blocky robo limbs and all.

    A great modernization of the classic block bot designs. Seeing more of this aesthetic would be wonderful.

    My favourite designs are Megatron, Optimus Prime, Devastator, Blurr and Hound.

    Designs are nice. Definitely an update over several previous designs too bad the game was cancelled otherwise we could have gotten toys

    Seeing a Wheeljack-esque head wandering about is trippy as hell after that RotB WJ reveal.

    There's a lot of great designs here, but oh lordy, I badly want figures of that Roulette and Shadow Striker.

    Oooo, I like that minicon bird bot. It looks like it was heavily inspired by Cybertron Laserbeak/Buzzsaw.
