I'll be curious to see how they do the coneheads. I don't have nearly as many grievances with the ER mold as some here, but one thing I never liked about it was how short the coneheads' heads were.

Heh, I was thinking that Amalgamous is everything I loved about the BM Vehicon toys, and Quintus is everything I hated about the BM Maximal toys. I'm curious to see how Razorclaw looks as an actual toy, but I'm thinking it'll be a pass since I already got Tigerhawk and the colors aren't wowing...

So at 5" tall in robot mode these are roughly deluxe sized, yes?

Thrilled to get Dan Mora, loved his work on Once and Future. Kirkman, I have my reservations, but we'll see how it goes.

According to this article, globally:

Nice haul! I'm suddenly nostalgic for some Spychangers... You gonna open that Shadow Striker/Roulette or leave it MIB? Bit of a shame either way since they look so good in both modes, and the package is so nice... both really nice color schemes I'd like to see used again.

Still can't tell if that's a cyber key port on the front of the motorcycle. I suspect not since it wasn't mentioned, but we shall see...

Mostly just fighting, but at least one major plot point pushes forward.

I'm glad the G2 Dinobots exist, if only for nostalgia's sake (I had green Slag and blue Grimlock, but grey Snarl). Though I won't be getting them, already got the G1 ones, good enough for me. I'll be passing on most of this I think, though I'll probably bite on a G2 Aerialbot set (or some other...

Leader-sized comics Fort Max!! Purple Soundwave!! Can't wait to complain they didn't get the shade right ;) (Also, I hope they're just 'normal' colors, didn't care much for the faux "comics shading" on the comics Grimlock and Shockwave we got.)

Question for all the MP experts... CoffeeHorse's pic here made decide to finally take the plunge and buy an MP Prowl. However, my research seems to indicate that only KOs come with two black launchers. As far as I can tell, the original Japanese release only came with one black launcher (and...

Marvel comics decos! (sob) It kinda varies on a case-by-case basis though. I think in a vacuum, generally the toy decos are more vibrant and interesting, but sometimes I do want something that looks like the cartoon. Or I even just prefer the cartoon look, as Shadewing says. Kingdom Cyclonus...

I wonder if we'll get a giant gun handle to re-enact Skybound Megatron's gun mode or if that's too risky even for 3P. Though I know there's already at least one 3D-print design out there for the Siege toy.

Grimlock's dinosaur front half looks like it fused the little T-rex arms with chonky Dinobot legs and he is rather surprised by this.

I agree with Exatron that I think the main problem is the middle portion is shorter than it should be, and the area where it's missing (red line below) got 'given' to the back end, making it longer than it should be. If the middle chunk was as big as the yellow line it would look a lot better...
