Weaponizer BB loks a lot better than prime in both modes, but I wish the two barrell gun was not handheld but plugged on the arm as it should be.

Far too simple for their size class. I realise that kids like big, simple toys, and I don't have a problem with that, but it does nothing for me. Prime's truck mode has arms -- they're just there, plain as day, being arms. And half his truck mode just hangs off his back.
All that said, I think the gimmick is very cool. I just wish the rest of the toy weren't so simple. |

Dammit, they didn't paint the rest of the stripes on the front of the hood to connect with the grill. He look silly in car mode.

BB doesn't look too bad aside from all the silly fake wheels in robot mode. I love how they had to get creative to make Prime's backpack fit in the box. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/icon-fire.gif)

I had to go see for myself and aside from hating that guy for making a half hour review about a single toy... yeah, that thing is hideous from the rear of either mode.
Great for the kids though! -------------------- |

I actually kinda like the look of this Prime, but I don't think I have room for any more Leaders.

I give 'em both a solid "Meh". Looks like a pair of good kid toys, but they do nothing for me.

I was under the impression they were closer to "big Ultras" than the old leader class (partly why US MSRP was $30, IIRC) Agree with the general sentiment, they look like fun toys, but I don't have the space or money to spend money on these kinds of products. |

I'd forgotten about Bumblebee's eight wheels, and I just noticed them again. Heh, funny.

'Bee looks like every 'strong guy' from every cartoon ever, with the massive torso and toothpick legs. It makes me chuckle.

I'm looking forward to seeing reviews of these guys, especially the Bee. Aside from the fake wheels, I like the look of that Bee. The gimmick is cool and doesn't appear to be intrusive.

They both look like nice toys, but I can't say I have any enthusiasm for them.

I imagine kids will be all over these. It's a much cooler gimmick than Powerizers. I love Transformers with integrated weapons.
