he very much resembles Bonecrusher with the long arms and little head

I think we are all kidding ourselves if we say we are not going to buy like every figure in this line. When do the figures get released, the end of May? We're going to humming and drumming over the toys for a month and then as soon as the movie comes out, we are going to all over them and bitching 'til this time next year over why stores cannot seem to keep these guys in stock? I admit, I am not going to be buying everyone. I really don't think I need to be buying ever Bumblebee or that craptacular Barricade with the long arm headlight things, that's just silly. But you bet I'll be buying every Constructicon and Sideswipe and the three motorcycles, Sideways, Prime & Jetfire, Megatron as a tank now(very cool... at least I cal tell what it is supposed to be this time. Not like the last movie. "Oh look he transforms into a big Cybertronian plane thing???), and the Fallen will be a must as well. And then after all the hype has cleared, I'll go back pick up a duplicate of every Constructicon and figure out a way to make the non-combining version combine!

 

Um, you just identified what it was exactly with a statement that was supposed to express how you couldn't identify it... :tfhuh

 

The Megatron and Fallen in the movie I would buy in a heartbeat, the toys are both unlikely. I especially dislike Fallen's cheesy plastic flames.

 

So real flames would be better? :lol

Interesting point. I want to see more pictures.

 

I never got Bonecrusher. I didn't like the toy. But if they'd have done him right, and at the right size (leader class) I'd have bought him in a heartbeat. Bonecrusher was probably my biggest frustration with the movie toys last time- followed by Blackout and Starscream. All three deserved toys on par with the new leader Prime we're getting.

 

I guess if Mixmaster ends up looking like a voyager version of what Bonecrusher SHOULD have been last time I'll probably end up getting him. But that first picture looks kinda awkward.

So real flames would be better? :lol

 

I was thinking maybe no flames (like most of the images we've seen of the movie character so far).

 

Also I'd like to see more layers of parts applied instead of solid molded pieces and the way his arms connect to the body looks a bit goofy to me.

Without the combination aspect, I can't enjoy them. But that's just me

 

yeah, i will just be buying devastator, i think the individual constructicons so far have been pretty lack-luster. and i can't forgive that because they don't have a limb mode to transform into.

 

so far just 3 of this line i will buy human companion bb, sidewipe, and the decepticon that looks like barricade

 

you mean no leader prime? no voyager starscream? no leader jetfire? no skids? no mudflap?

 

i think all of the above figures look really great.

Im sure not getting the twins. they just look hideous to me. I agree on the rest of the figures you listed though. They're really nice

*sigh* if only they all combined they would be the best set of TFs ever. So yeah, I do like the Dev design. Anyways, they would still look kool when placed next to each other.

I don't know why you guys are so shocked that the figures they said wouldn't combine from day one DON'T COMBINE! I mean, seriously, it's Hasbro talking to us here, not Bay.

I think most of the Constructicons are cool looking, but I don't want them if they can't combine, and I'm not pay 100 bucks for a combiner with no individual robot modes. Oh and I completely agree that Bonecrusher should have been bigger. If not Leader, def Ultra Class. Hasbro should do Ultras in every toy line btw.

Hmmm, this attempt at pointing out hypocrisy that isn't there sounds familiar. Iacon, have you come over from Bottalk to harass these people here as well?
