I'm getting a kick out of these guys. No one was even close to what they look like. I just hope starscream has hands.

Optimus has the trademark blue antenae head, wheels on legs and windshield chest. Bumblebee doesn't even look like a transformer at all. I'd kill to see his transformation sequence in action in slow motion.

If you look at the concept art people created for Prime, they weren't even in the ballpark. Sure he has the tradmark blue head and windshield chest, but he still looks very different from anything else we've ever gotten.

I have a feeling the toy will look closer to the Classic Voyager prime the the souped up movie stills.

I like em. Nice and different from your standard formers toys. Hopefully they are pretty complicated as well.

Best Starscream we've had in 22 years - wish I could pre-order it somewhere already. Incidentally, he does have hands - you can see the tines of his claws between the barrels of his missile launchers. I also like the head design (although I'll probably barf up my popcorn if he turns out to have that godawful whiny voice from the cartoon). Interesting thing I just spotted - there's a 'rib'-like design element on his chest (just outside the pectoral plates) which has never appeared on any incarnation of SS except for Su's design in the current comics - I wonder if it's pure coincidence?

 

Blackout/Incinerator just oozes evil too - I can't wait to see a complete Megatron (hard to make a call on him with all that crap dribbling off him) if this is just how badass his followers look!

 

I'm one of the many who aren't overly impressed with flames on Prime but they're forgivable on such an awesome looking incarnation of the character.

 

Hope Bumblebee doesn't get ruined with some face design based on his G1 'toon animation model (poor B - of all the characters wrecked by the animators he came off worst) - with any luck the model in that photo is essentially finished.

 

I'm gonna have a hard time justifying spending money on Classics that I really need to be saving for these guys. This movie is shaping up to be everything I hoped for. All it needs now is a decent storyline - I guess I'll find that out when I go see it.

 

Hope something of this design aesthetic carries over into future TF toylines.

Basically, I'm happy with these. However, (As if this is new...) Starscream is in desperate need for change. Although, they may have made him squat so when he's near Autobots, he's not twice their size (Remember the whole realistic thing?). But still, change it!

i love the reversed knees on screamer, and the claw hands on all the tfs.... i really feel like i'm looking at robots and stuff.

I recall making this point like, oh say a gazillion times about the BM Vehicons

 

oh well :tflaugh

I'm not the kind of person to generally agree with everyone, but seriously, Starscream sux!

 

Longer legs, better torso, new arms, and anything to resemble G1 screamer, and it'd be better!!

i'm not reading through all 5 pages of bleh but these guys look awesome.
