Oh these will be mine. The Orochi is such a nice looking car.
I like the designs and the robot modes do evoke a very 'aerial' theme with minimal obvious car kibble adding to that effect. If the quality is anything like Bumblebee and Cliffjumper then you are looking at some very good grade toys.
However car seekers are not very appealing to me as a concept despite the very good quality of these designs so I will not get them.
They've got a bit of BT Tracks going on there with the shoulder things. The robot mode looks tall and skinny, I hope they size up well with the other alternities.
Not really keen on the chunky chibi looking arm blasters though.
At first i thought the doors were supposed to be flip up style, like this pic:
But turns out that's the roadster, thankfully! These are looking great! Seems they resorted to a fake chest in the style of the bonnet to achieve the look of the sketch we saw earlier. Is it his seats over his shoulders? And the dash/steering wheel behind the back? Looks to be a pretty interesting transformation.
Wow - Skywarp is one scary-looking toy. Not sure he's as Skywarpy as he could be, but still - colour me impressed. If there was some sort of sensible canon behind this franchise, I'd be completely sold on that one.
I dunno mebbe its just me, but the carmode looks to me like its melting. I know its based on a real car, but well, doesnt work for me....interesting that they didnt go for the same headmold.

Surprisingly, I quite like the look of Skywarp. Not sure if I'll pull the trigger, but it's the first Alternity that grabs my eye.
Eagerly waiting for Masterpiece Meister
