Cannonball looks pretty good to me, I never got the original or the Botcon figure so I'll make an attempt at getting him.

Happy to see new(ish) characters getting toys, this is Filch's first full on transforming toy after only getting a Tiny Titan after 9 years.

What should surprise no one, a leaked sample of United Animated Prime featuring a face plate has surfaced.

Legacy United Voyager Animated Optimus Prime Alternate Faceplate Head Possible First Look

An interesting discovery has come our way courtesy of TFW member Goldprime. He has posted a Legacy United Voyager Animated Optimus Prime prototype with what looks to be an alternate faceplate head sculpt. Check out the images and speculate as to what it could mean for possible future...

I'm still banking on some sort of exclusive, probably a Jetwing Optimus Prime

Jetwing Optimus would be fun. When I purged my collection a few years ago and got rid of most of my animated, that was the Optimus I kept.

I’m liking this line a lot.

Cannonball looks good. Not great, but he hits all the piratical spots.
Filch looks good. Lot of remolding to make her distinctive.
Lockdown I like a lot more than I thought I would. Yeah he’s not lean, mean Animated/ROTFLockdown. But as a retail, he works a beefy, brutal merc.
Ferak I really like. Mostly because the Cyclonus mold is so good! The retooling is neat too.

I feel Cannonball is missing something by not having the whole-ass skeleton on the sides of the vehicle mode and the giant skull on his roof.

I mean I'll still get him because Cannonball is awesome but it's just you know.

Maybe this represents a younger, less experienced Cannonball who just took the name.

That would be neat and, since Thundertron is around, it also kinda works. I mean, you can’t have two Captains of the Star Raiders (Seekers) at the same time. :)

Of all the characters where it kinda makes sense to have different incarnations next to each other, Cannonball is up there.

Every so often the retired ones hold a Cannonball reunion.

In fact, I like the idea that each Cannonball looks a little different from the others. The new crew (if we're going by the implied Princess Bride rules) wouldn't know the difference, and the new look still matches existing descriptions.

Cannonball is neat. Ferak's a nobody, so I'll pass. Filch's base mold isn't all that good and is fragile. Lockdown doesn't fit very well. I pictured him as more of a sleek, streamlined type of bounty hunter who does his job stylishly and the mold's a bit too clunky-looking for that image

Sandstorm is certainly more G1 accurate than his Thrilling 30 counterpart. However, it is tough to beat the Thrilling 30 mold. I will probably be sticking with that one instead of this new one. I do like it though.
