I agree that complex transformations are not necessarily a good thing, as I'd been advocating simpler transformations for a few years now. But within a whole series, the size-classes should roughly equate to their difficulty level.... these two make it look like a whole new size-class and design, which makes them stand out a bit from the rest of the BH toyline.
I'm not so sure if that's true. Certainly Hasbro have always encouraged the idea that the larger toys were more complex, like with Energon Omega Supreme being labelled as "advanced", but that always seemed more to me like a marketing move. It's always seemed to me that the most complex toys have been spread across the size classes, and often they're deluxes. Possibly a side effect of trying to cram a lot of functionality into a small toy.

Anyway, if you want to offload that Optimus Prime give me a shout!
