I see what you did there.
Core is great though. If nothing else, we can expect a transformation that's unusually interesting for the size.
In scale to G1 though.
Since when has Hasbro cared about scale regarding their Beast Machines toys?
Cheetor is in core class to make the currently unrevealed Micromaster class Tankor look all the more hilarious.
And now that they've done Nemesis, the board is clear for Titan class Nightscream.
Pics aren't mine.
Okay, I am seriously impressed here.
I thought Orion Pax was just a simple recolor/remold from Hound, but to turn from a green jeep into a red and blue robot? Now that is some genius engineering! You can't even see the other mode's colors in either form!
With his design? A core class BM Cheetor will probably look eye-to-eye with Legacy Galvatron.
So can we have a commander class Rattrap from BM where he has that battle suit? We could have Megatron as the drone as a voyager class!
Pics aren't mine and the original set didn't seem to feature the correct alt mode either.

So I picked up Armada Megatron today. It's a great figure overall. Shoulders should probably be locked into place in robot mode, but it's honestly not too bad.
What I find myself loving/being frustrated by is that he's such a faithful sculpt of the original, and I LOVED that original toy. So when I'm holding him my muscle memory of the original kicks in and I end up trying to activate features this new guy just doesn't have. And on one hand that's fine. He's a different figure trying to do completely different stuff. And he pulls off what he sets out to do well. He's a full-sized transforming Armada Megatron who can pose in ways the original never could. And I'm not expecting firing weapons really, but the lack of spring loaded bits, including his knife hand, just leave me feeling like something was lost in all of this.

I blame the joyless grumpy people who derided Armada back in the day. People actually complained about the knife not being very impressive looking.
Being impressive wasn't the point. The point was that Armada Megatron never runs out of weapons. Just when you think he's out of ammo- *stab*

Armada Megs was a great toy and the knife was perfect. The final scene between him and OP in the show more than justified it as-is.
Honestly? I would have taken Armada Megs But With Knees. Which is sort of what we got? I'm happy for it, but I miss all the fun stuff we lost.
Armada was brilliant. It's still my favorite Prime and Megatron designs ever.
Only thing to come close since was Titans Return.
Seeing it in action, this is pretty clever: this one, single Jolt isn't too yellow for Hot Shot, and not too red for Powerlinx Hot Shot, since he falls in the middle.From the front page!

And I don't say that just because I love orange.
Idk, much as I like having Jolt in an all new color, I still would've preferred getting two Jolts (one red, one yellow) packed in, even if it meant not getting the guns and blast effects. That might have gotten me to backtrack and get regular Hot Shot.
