BAM! Optimus and Megs toys.
Optimus looks a hell of a lot better than the toy in the other image that's been circulating for the last couple of weeks. Megs' hands look a little off (right arm is mistransformed afterall), but looks great regardless.
The amazing look of these figures has pretty much ensured I'll pick up the entire line (lucky for me and my wallet it's been stated it will be a 'limited assortment'). This stuff is on par with Classics in term of my likes.
Megatron is somewhat lacking (appears to be mistransformed) but DAMN! THAT PRIME LOOKS SWEET!!!
Prime looks awsome!
Megatron looks wrong bad transformation, wheres his cannon?
What size do people think they are??? Voyager?
I must say, I like. Prime looks pretty chunky, which is cool, Megs is mistransformed, but still looks cool. Even if the game is crap, I will buy these regardless.
Meh to Megatron - I don't care too much for the look of it :(

But Prime on the other hand! OMFG! :eek:
He looks awesome, however the cynical side of me tells me that the paint apps will not be quite as glossy on the finished product :rolleyes:
But still.... pretty hot! :D

With that big gun on megatron in "vehicle" mode, why don't they just make megatron one big gun? C'mon, why havn't they thought of that before?
Well, he pretty much is really. Everything else is just whatever meat is needed to move the gun around. :)Quote:

He's so fantastic looking. I really like it.
I think Megatron needs to be in a more dynamic pose to look good like crushing Optimus under his feet then he would look a whole lot better :)
In the trailer for the game, Megs cannon seems to fold away when he has his mace out. I reckon its folded up in his right bicep, where the red is on his arm.Quote:

I too am glad this is "limited" release. I am liking what I have seens so far.
Prime looks awesome. I hope they do an Omega and Trypticon
They look pretty good - Prime's definitely better!
The problem with Megatron these days is the designers don't seem to know what exactly his alt mode should be. Should he look like his traditional self (Prime is much easier, since he's a truck who turns into a bot who has 'truck' parts on him)? Or something entirely different? Or maybe... just keep him as a Cybertron vehicle? Too many conflicting options, that are generally rolled in to one, sadly, leaving an obscure and disappointing figure/alt mode for such an iconic and popular character! Megs suffers from not being allowed to be a gun, yet having a bot mode that looks like it could turn in to one (at least, from a cartoon POV)!
There are so many homages to G1 gun Megs... colours, massive cannon, bucket head, etc... but none of them make sense unless he's turning in to a gun. Even a tank doesn't work... generally speaking, how many silver and black tanks are there on earth? I realise this is Cybertron, but it still seems like a pretty odd design, even for an alien craft!
Poor Megatron! :(
Prime does look awesome :cool:
Megs on the other hand looks mistransformed. The right hand kinda reminds me of Beast Wars Megs :rolleyes:
My verdict on Prime :eek:
Now that is how you make a Cybertron mode Prime :)
As for Megatron, will have to wait what he looks like properly transformed in robot mode. But at least this version looks like it has a fully transformable mode compared to Titanium Megs.
But dispite the Titanium Prime's and Megatron's flaws, I still like those figures. But these two in particular look promising, along with Bumblebee.
I think there's even an argument that Megatron would have worked better using Prime's alt mode...his smokestacks could convert into a fusion cannon! :eek:Quote:

I like both of these designs. Prime, as everyone has said, looks fantastic... Megs kind of reminds me of Cybertron Galvatron (bot mode only), which coincidently was one of my fav toys from that line.
Prime = Epic Win
:D
Megatron = Well...I think I'll wait for some more photos...
:confused:
Loving the lack of a "cab" in these Alternate modes.
Megatron is giving me an "animated" feel in his design, its a very meh alt mode, but a decent robot mode. Prime on the otherhand looks fantastic in both modes!

Prime does look nicer... but the colours look doctored to me... here's hoping Hasbro doesn't cheap out with any of the paints (like their notorious flat grey).
wow! Now as already stated by others these look great, i'll be buying them. but here's hoping the paint apps look as good in the released toys.
If not we can always hold out until the Takara-Tomy release :)Quote:

i could get into that he could be so freakin evil and awesome the he doesnt even need to "disguise" himself like the rest of his minions and he rocks up to a battle you know the shits gonna hit the fan :DQuote:

(with missing shield/cockpit cover of course)
That prime is great. probably the most excited ive been for a TF since city commander. I suppose its way to early to estimate when these will hit shelves/ probably a bit after the game release. I'd love an ultra mags repaint =P
Prime looks ok, Megatron looks about what I excpected after seeing the game art. Still they look ok for deluxes, any bigger though and I think they would be a definite pass.
<agrees with Gutsman Heavy & Jaydisc>
Agreed! This is Michael Bay's mistake *cough Scorponok cough Ravage cough* and Megatron's alt mode was also incidental to him!Quote:

Even taking missing parts into consideration, classics prime kicks every single bit of arse over the wfc one for sure.
I like my manly robots to have manly torsos. :p
Yeah, he looks a little... tiny!
I look forward to more pics though!
I was expecting him tiny, so I don't mind. It seems that he will be a tall deluxe.
I am more worried about those colors..
I like the way it looks so far, but I want to see the completed product.
Little pink there for you? :pQuote:
