Ultra Magnus is the undisputed start of this show as far as I'm concerned.

Some of the Protectobots are very nice too, especially Streetwise, but Hot Spot and Blades are great too. Nothing against Rook, as he looks like a good figure, but the lack of a deluxe Groove is a big disappointment. The vehicle mode of First Aid as a rugged emergency vehicle instead of a traditional ambulance is fine, but the robot mode has an ugly backpack.

Cyclonus works in every respect expect the head design.

I'm reserving judgment on Devy. As has been mentioned, some of them have very suspect-looking elbows for such big figures. Long Haul's elbow joints appears to move sideways instead of up and down, for heaven's sake. Wish his head was black too. Not sure that size-wise there is a spot in my collection for these Constructicons.

As for RID, I know I'll be caving and getting a few of the deluxes including Jazz, Sideswipe and drift. Reckon I'll be combining Prime and RID collections and pretending they are one line.
