    Default Power Core Combiners

    What do you think of them?

    I think it's a neat idea, especially as it gives the mini-cons a far greater role than in Armada, although I don't think I will buy many. The only one of the PCCs shown at Toy Fair that looked interesting to me was Icepick, mainly because I like blue translucent plastic.

    Combining Armada and Energon and giving us an entirely new line? HOW COULD I NOT LOVE THAT?!

    Armada is one of my all-time favourite TF lines. It's a miracle of TF toys... and Hasbro is BRINGING IT BACK IN A BIG WAY?! How could I not love that?

    Auto-Transforming limbs that can be shared with craploads of different central robots? Scramble City taken to the nth degree? HOW COULD I NOT LOVE THAT?!

    Basically -- Power Core COmbiners is everything I love about Transformers. I'm looking forwards to it massively.

    There need to be an option between "I think they are fantastic! I will likely buy lots of them." & "It's an interesting concept, and I may get one just to see." I think they are a nifty idea and will buy several, but saying they're fantastic is probably overstating my anticipation. Still I voted for fantastic.

    Christ that was long winded of me! Its looks like a fun gimmick.

    Huffer, Searchlight and Icepick look pretty sweet.

    I think they are alright. They have a Machine Wars sort of feel to them.

    However the Gestalts seem rather disappointing with the 'drone' limb concept.

    If there is good fiction associated with Powercore Combiners, I may be motivated to buy some.

    I was not expecting the "gestalts" to have drone limbs, it kinda takes away from the whole point of gestalts, the limbs are more armour/padding than anything else.

    I'm interested in the line, the lack of a television show may hurt sales, but the whole concept is interesting, I expect to grab a few.

    I wonder if they'll rerelease Energon Prime? He'd fit right in.

    Anyway I think it's far too early for me (having not seen any of these in person) to answer any this poll.

    Ditto. I am intrigued, but I will have to wait on seeing more photos, or holding them in my hands.

    I'm interested that decepticon emergency vehicle especially. I'm also interested in seeing how the 5 pack figures look combined with the commander figure and mini-con.

    I may get one or two, but aestheticly I prefer TF's rooted in either G1 or Movie style more than the more Energon like look of these new guys.
