hmmm, I want Deluxe wheeljack's weapon... I'll be getting all of the cyberverse (well except for bumblebee :P) especially since theyve recoloured BUlkhead into Roadbuster - he will as such in liegeverse :D.

oooh Airachnid cyberverse ei? cute! Shame they can comeup with a new mold for Smokescreen in cyberverse but he's just a recolour in his deluxe size. :(

So far no official but you can see the unofficial NYCC images of Preadaking if you haven't already.

It hasn't been released yet, so it's not even close to being sold out. Just be patient - they'll be shelfwarming in no time.

Predaking's robot mode revealed (http://www.seibertron.com/transformers/news/transformers-prime-beast-hunters-voyager-predaking-robot-mode-revealed/26296/). A little dull looking, but the beast back legs fold away nicely. Also: tiny Predacon insignia on his left upper chest is tiny.

Thats just the voyager. The wings are articulated differently to the first photos showed of this character. I suspect that figure was a weaponiser predaking.

That reminds me of the Rescue Bot packaging, like it's aimed at a very young audience. Going to happily sit out the Beast Hunters year.

I'm still just buying up the few missing primes and fall of cybertron ones I don't have. I'd be more than happy to have the beast hunters ones pushed back a little :o

I can see some of these toys becoming interesting Botcon repaints/retools but that may require a bit of imagination and thought.

That makes this figure quite enticing, but first I'd like to see close ups of the face sculpt :)

There's close up pics of the head on seibertron.com and TFW. It sort of looks like a younger face to me for some reason. And he's got a bit of a grimace. I get a bit of an optimal optimus vibe too.

I've just had a look, and it does look quite like Primal, maybe from the raised nose and mouth makes the face gorilla-like. He does look younger too, perhaps its because we're used to seeing that face on Animated Prime (albeit, more aggressive looking). Not sure how that will work with Peter Cullen's seasoned voice.

Will definately pick up Smokescreen but like others hope the armour is separate
Some of the 'beast' figures look interesting as well

I really, REALLY like Beast Hunters Optimus. Big, chunky, armed to the teeth. And if Takara does a version with clear blue plastic I'll buy that too.

I agree, the bulky chunky look is very appealing. I see alot of potential for repaints. Also with a sword, this Optimus can fight with the FOC Grimlock :D I hope they do a Megatron as well, and with lots of bulk, plus hand weapon.

Beast Hunters Voyager Shockwave and Ultra Magnus coming soon?

Yay for Shockwave, I just hope Hasbro doesn't screw him up and that doesn't have junk all over him, if he does I hope it's removable like Smokescreens.

I quite like Optimus, but Predaking is rather disappointing. Dunno whether its his fat legs or derpy dragon mode, stupid looking weapons or munted looking hands. I think I'll pass on Predaking. Shame as I like dragon transformers

I agree, it's the weak-looking hands for. More Bayverse like rather than robotic. Add that onto the orange/black colour scheme, and you've got something that looks very far from G1 Predaking/Predacons, and much closer to ROTF orange voyager The Fallen (got that toy MISB for $18 and am still regretting it). I do like how the legs are more robotic than Cybertron Scourge.
