DOTM Toy Anticipation Discussion

[SkyWarp91]

Post away what you think of this upcoming toyline.

I'm kind of on the disappointed side - not so because of the appearance of the toys, but moreso because of their current sizes. It's inconsistent with the last 2 movies. I was hoping for a new Leader Class Megatron or Optimus and The Purple Tank guy but they're all voyagers. I guess I can wait and hope for Leader releases later. I'm not so fussed with the Dreads, Bumblebee or even Barricade.

What do you think?

Besides Shockwave, everything so far is 'meh'

Having said that though, unless Hasbro releases a whole pile of Classicverse toys, I'll probably end up buying some of the DOTM toys only because I've got nothing else to buy.

My anticipation is low. I haven't liked any of the new versions of old characters i've seen. I was hoping that because ROTF's Leader Class Prime was Lightyears ahead of the first movie's Leader Class Prime the same would happen with DOTM. I haven't seen the version that comes with the trailer yet and really, really hoping it's just Battle Blades Prime with a trailer as the Mechtech voyager looks like garbage.

So far Shockwave and Dreads and some of those piloted bots.... ubt still subject to if it looks good in person kinda thing before I buy....

Only Shockwave has interested me. I am keen to get better looks at the wreckers toys as well. Nothing else has me excited yet.

Thus far I'm liking the new Ironhide, Shockwave, the green Wrecker (we've seen the deluxe robot mode - looks kind of like a green movie-ised Cybertron Crosswise), Megatron, and Dread. Especially Dread - he looks like absolute evil (in a good way) and I can dig the predator style dreadlocks.

I'm not a fan of the legends size class so I'm not anticipating them, I never really bought into the HA craze (the only good one is Jazz imo) so I don't really care about those. Starscream (deluxe) looks very underwhelming, even transformed properly. Don't even get me started on voyager Optimus.

I want to see more of Barricade before I make my mind up - I've got both the first run 2007 deluxe and the HA so I'm probably not going to get the new one unless they do something new and radical with the transformation.

I'd also like to see what they're doing with the Scout size class. The RotF family of lines gave us some of the best scouts today - intricate and well constructed.

Give me Megatruck in black and I'll be a happy camper, otherwise I'm kinda meh, "Dreads" looks alright, probably get a Shocky, just because its Shocky.

Shockwave is the only one that looks interesting to me... but it's only half interesting (ie bot mode only). So, coupled with everything else, I'm pretty 'meh' about the whole line thus far!
