very G1 looking Computron but I much prefer the maketoys version - If only the maketoys version was this scale...
Big.
MakeToys for me though.

+2, I echo these sentiments as well, even having Computron as my favorite combiner growing upQuote:

The first Warbotron figure looks pretty awesome and the engineering looks okay/passable, but the lack of ratchets in the legs (which will be bruticus' elbow) may hinder posing with weapons. If that 'no-ratchet' thing keeps up, it'll be "no dice" on my end.
I have Warbotron pre-ordered so I think that I might have to get this one
Very impressive. What a monster! Would look damn amazing on display.
Impressive but way too large to be practical, even for MP. I'll stick with Maketoys.
Booooooo. Practicalityyyyy. Hssssssssss. We're collectors! We relish in the absurd and the unique! [insert comment about 'being a man' and 'bigger is better' phallic joke here]Quote:

Afterburner is apparently being released next month

I can't keep up with all this! :o
Way too many 3P products and they all look great and cost a bomb to own!
Afterburner looks the part but Scattershot's head appears a little off the mark imo...
Maybe with some color it'll look better.
Scatershots head has big ears, I think that's why it looks odd, as otherwise he looks about right/
These look pretty damn good so far, and I'd be tempted if not for competing products.
While I'm not a 100% certain that Maketoys version will end up being better, I'm going to go with there's just because after Giant I want to see what they can do.
So it would seem that Warbotron is going with a "Pat Lee" aesthetic with this Computron? :confused: - Like many others have mentioned, I'm sticking with the MakeToys offering too. ;):)
