:tfpuke This crap for like two years.My eyes my poor eyes.Shelf.Warm.

im definatly not a fan of this mechtech gimmick.

 

only one ive seen that actually works was on the voyager megatron.

 

 

thing is transformers already have a gimmick, THEY TRANSFORM!!!

Didn't they also, like, have the ability to combine?

 

Honestly Combiners were some of the most popular things out there, and it's been forever since it's been done right. All we've had are Energon Powerlink combiners which were pretty lame, PCC which are just sad, and....don't want to say it......ROTF Devastator...

 

The G1 combiners were awesome, how is it they can't do the same thing in 2011 but with more articulation and detailing to them? :tfsad

It gets even sadder when you consider that fansproject pulled it off with the Explorer and Munitioner; I mean, sure they went quite a long way in a sense that perhaps Hasbro wouldn't dare due to how much money they would lose, but that said, it's still a real shame that the Energon combiners had those half assed 'limbs' when they could've had something much better.

 

Anyway, regarding the two figs...they look like crap...gimmick or no gimmick, deluxe or not, they look like crap.

 

Hell, the WFC deluxes and the Generations line as a whole had NO extra gimmicks and are incredibly awesome...EXACTLY for that!! Why are these movie figures so obsessed with gimmicks? Transforming high poseable and detailed robots aren't doing it anymore?

I dig the Dread. Kind of warm on Starscream. Will have to see how he looks properly transformed, but as is, they look like they're on the "might buy" list.

I guess it's just easier to make a toy commercial for 5 year olds about a big, loud, flashy gimmick than about something understated and high quality.

 

I mean can you imagine a saturday morning toy commercial that doesn't have crap-tacular "I um Obdimus Brime" lights and sounds, and probably some goldfish-bowl rocks strewn everywhere so some nonsense plastic missile can knock Megatron off a Styrofoam cliff into a waste basket or something?

TRY to imagine a toy commercial that JUST shows off how detailed, articulated and well constructed a toy is; it's impossible.

 

Granted WE would respond to something like that, but Hasbro isn't going to bank on what would appeal to more refined intellects; they wanna SELL TOYS, dang it!

And as long as that's the case, there's always the probability that we're going to git bigger, louder, easier to FILM gimmicks over the most basic and awesome gimmick of all; the one that's actually the NAME of the SERIES.

At this point, I'm really only interested in seeing Leader class Sentinel Prime and a Shockwave figure, because the rest of these things blow chunks... :puke

Holy crap. It's crap. Looks like it's just the Human Alliance toys for me.

From what I've seen so far, even the Human Alliance figures won't be bought by me. IF these are all transformed correctly, Megatron is the only one I will pick up.

who designed these toys? they look horrible, every figure from DOTM looks bad except maybe megatron. Strarscream looks anorexic and like hes wearing a brown diaper. dreads isnt too bad but his feet look bad and he seems a little cartoony, almost like the activators. i also hate the new weapon gimmick they should be sold separatly so we can have some decent toys. i hope the dont ruin shockwave, sentinel prime, or soundwave (again like rotf). ugghh why cant all figs be universe classics?
