    haha, no.

    But it's a good move by Hasbro to muscle in on Mattel's market.

    I think they look neat, so I'll be getting them, including the radio control Prime.


    As for Hasbro going after Mattel by muscling in on Hot Wheels:

    This wouldn't be the first time Transformers has tried to muscle in on Hot Wheels. The G2 Gobots were the first (which others have noted were repainted for the CR/RiD Spychangers). I have Hot Wheels launchers in my TF room that I keep for the sole purpose of launching my Spychangers.

    The Gobot/Spychanger design had a drawback in terms of limited engineering for the transformation and robot mode because of course they needed to have free-spinning axles (as their entire gimmick works on the conservation of momentum). If Hasbro are able to improve on the engineering of the old Gobot/Spychanger design and some still maintain the free-rolling gimmick then I would definitely want to collect them. So I'm voting yes based on that assumption.
