Blackout is tiny

[Blitz]

I can't help but wonder if the reason for the smaller sizes of the movie toys is due to Takara not sholdering half of the R&D cost like they did for AEC. So now Hasbro must make the toys smaller in order to keep them at the same price point.

 

thats just all kinds of wrong. if anything the toys would be simple and chunky sorta armada like or basicly bigger FAB's not smaller and as complex as your averige cybertron toy a very japanese style of designing toys going by their market

 

IMO im guessing its down to black outs extras and rather odd shape pushing up the price like scorpy the fact that if he were as big as iron hide the rotors would not fit in the box

I don't see what the problem is. He looks like a $20 toy to me. At most he's in between a $15-20 range. I mean, if he were to be done in scale in terms of that particular helicopter and a hd-gmc diesel Blackout would have to be leader sized or larger to be in scale. Personally I prefer the $20 price point and size compared to what he realistically could be. I like tf's, but I don't like going uber broke to have them. If it's between me eatin a normal lunch or making tomato soup outta ketchup, I'm eating a normal lunch. And yes, I realize I went of on a tangent rant. Blah blah blah.......

Nice Group Shot.

 

So Ratchet's toy is bigger than Ironhide. Heh - my inner fanboy just went "oh noes!" LOL.

But Man - after seeing them together - without a doubt I'm buying Ironhide, Ratchet, Brawl, Barricade, and Blackout.

Starscream still hasn't sold me on his stuff.

Holy shee...that's so extremely awesome. I really, really, really, really, hope this is the future of TFs. They better look as cool on screen as these toys do.
