Breast Hunters, eh? Emerje

Actually it says "Existing tooling with new character DECO" not design. Means all of these figures, like Twinstrike, will be sold at retail in different colors, but it's the Target exclusive that will be in G1 colors. But now that Cyberverse Commanders run around $10.50 at Walmart I can't forgive it at the price. Emerje

Looking at the truck mode it seems like you can make a mini "white Prime" out of the truck cab. Emerje

Whoa, I thought he was around Voyager scale. Figure is huge, $135 sounds like a much better deal now compared to third party figures half its size going for $100. Emerje

There's your RTS Optimus Prime repaint for Botcon 2013. Emerje

I think the red and white head and guns are supposed to be candy cane colored for people who did the BBTS and TFSource special pre-orders for Toys for Tots/Salvation Army. There was no mention of it being an exclusive, but it's the only thing that makes sense. Emerje

Wow, how badly did they screw up the game for it to go from an MMORPG to something similar to the online mode of Fall of Cybertron? I'm no fan of shooters so my interest in this went from around a 7 to a 0. It would be like taking Street Fighter and downgrading it from a fighting game to a game where you destroy cars. Taking an MMORPG and stripping it of everything but it's PvP component is just insane. Hasbro made a huge mistake letting Jagex handle this. Emerje

Now that we can see the silhouettes it doesn't seem like they're really hinting at any possible figures aside from maybe RtS G2 Prime for MW Prime. Soundwave, Starscream, and Megatron are all in their MW forms, not updated. Galvatron is just G1 Galvatron, not even Generations Galvatron. I think it was done just to show that the MW characters aren't on a side, we probably shouldn't read too much into it. Emerje

Don't forget, this is about likeness, not scale. I'm sure they'll use the Thunderwing mold again with a new head and chest for Starscream. If they're really basing this on the Machine Wars likenesses then Megatron will probably be the Seeker Jet mold. Optimus will probably be the lone Voyager (being the only Autobot mentioned), likely a repaint of Classics Optimus. If not then Soundwave could be the Cybertron Defense Scattorshot mold since it was reused Universe twice and for Flak for Botcon 2009. If they did go with CD Red Alert for Soundwave it won't be part of the box. Galvatron might just

Of course they're bigger, the height has been known for a while. The GT figs are 22cm/8.66" tall with an MSRP of 10,000jpy/$122.60. The original Alternity figures were 18cm/7.09" tall with an MSRP of 4,500yen/$55.17. The GT line is the same size as Binaltech/Alternators, but cost twice as much. Emerje

Meh. Toy companies have been blaming technology and video games for 15 years now, it's an easy excuse, but nothing more than a theory. You don't see them bragging about how they overcame video games when profits are up. The economy is a little easier to swallow, but still an easy excuse. Last I checked the economy was looking better (not great, just better) than it was a few years ago and I'm pretty sure Hasbro has had some good years since 2008 so that isn't holding much water. But something every toy company has done this year is let the prices climb. Sad thing is Hasbro doesn't even seem to

That was the first and only thing that came to mind when I saw that one. People are seriously over thinking this. Emerje
