:eek

 

Some of those designs are soooo much cooler, like Vector Prime's.

And he could have had 2 swords?!?!?!?

I prefer the sleeker Snarl and actually having Backstop being a Rhino (THEN he could have been Rhinox damnit!)

Dirtboss looked soooo much better in paper......

Dirt Boss was the shiznit!  Too bad they Fisher-Priced him out so bad.

I have to to totally agree about Dirtboss.

 

Though I really like him as is it's sad to see he could've been so much better. :tdown

 

Reguarding Vector Prime and the two swords he could've have my guess is they probably decided to go with one seeing as the Upcoming Wingsaber has of almost the same identical design. Thouugh I really doubt the possibility of this being true what if Vector Prime was intentionally designed to originally combine with Optimus Prime thus giving him two swords? :schin

Hey, Vector Prime originally was supposed to look a lot more like the Autobot insignia (furthering the connection between him and "The Last Autobot" from Marvel UK comics...)? Cool..

 

Two swords is too ninja. One sword makes him more like a Knight.

A couple of those pics have Leobreaker looking so much like Cheetor. Awesome.

I prefer the sleeker Snarl and actually having Backstop being a Rhino (THEN he could have been Rhinox damnit!)

He is a rhino. And the Japanese name for this character is 'Saidos'. 'Sai' = Rhino in Japanese, so, ignoring the 'D' he's 'Rhinos'... or Rhinox, if one ignores tricky Japanese pronunciation. :D

Dont EVEN get me started on that.  Once I saw that concept drawing I lost all love for the actual fig.
