My only real compunctions are that Bumblebee's eyes are too dark, and Megatron's eyes are neon green, when they should be a menacing red.

 

What the hell is that thing on the back of Starscream's head.  Are they going for a complete G1 transformation with the cone of the plane behind his head?  How do they expect him to be able to pose?

 

And I want to see Astrotrain's train mode damn it.

 

Also, I'm kind of skeptical of the little jet ski thing with Bumblebee...thank god it's not physically attached to him.

How are some people getting Armada reborn out of these? I have not seen a single transforming brick among the entire group. These guys are fantastic upgrades of the G1 figures. I can't wait for them to come out.

 

And I love the packaging. A good mix of old and new styles. I am just in heaven from these guys.

You really feel the armada vive coming out of bumblebee. He looks just like hot shot, except he has articulation.

so basically he's a cool version of Hot Shot

 

I'm okay with that

I wouldn't worry about the transformations...these are Hasbro product pics after all.

I'll probably get Bumblebee, if he blends in well with my Alts. in bot mode.

Starscream is definately the jewel so far...I'd really dig Bumblebee except...wtf is up with towing a jetski? Thats really rather out of place. Seriously detracts from the toy. Makes me think "Weekend at Barbie's"

Ha! Now with these official non Photoshop pics, who's still gonna pass up MP Screamer for this one?

It kind of looks like the turbines in Starscream's chest are optional?  It looks like one is out, and one is folded in.

bumblebee is armada reborn...not a good thing IMO.  I liked the older pics better...bring them back!!!

 

But ya, this really does look to be a nice looking line...and good to see Megs is Voyager class.

Bumblebee Kick Armada Hotshot's ass straight up and down. * needs to take a pic of that happening*

It also looks like his head is G1 accurate......by that I mean, immobile.

I like starscream now I will definately get him AND MP... this line isnt nearly as lame as I originally thought
