Was on 4chan and saw these. Anyhoo thought I'd copy and share for those who are interested.

The only two I'm interested in are Swerve and Megatron, though I do wish they had given Megatron the purple camo. I can deal with Megs looking samurai-like since he looks a lot like his Alternity counterpart. Swerve's color scheme and sword are just kickass though. I MAY get Hotspot (big maybe there) but he doesn't look nearly as good as I imagined. His blue should be a few shades lighter.

The others don't really look that good. I dig Wheelie's slingshot, but the mold doesn't fit the character. Springer looks good, but still doesn't beat the Fansproject version. And those two FE Prime molds will never fit in with any classics collection. Brawn's tiny head looks horrible, and while Cliffjumper isn't bad looking, the Prime aesthetic just doesn't seem to translate well in the Classics Universe... It's a shame too, since it really does look good, but I don't need it since I already have the FE version.

Swerve still has Kup's musket rifle Springer has the sword, and that made him go up from "No way" to "maybe" on my list. Hot Spot looks more like Defensor, surprisingly, but he's still a must get, as well as Megatron.

And poor Motormaster can't catch a break, can he? First the indignity of becoming an Optimus Prime repaint like so many others, now his name had to be changed (trademarks, you know?) to Motorbreath of all names. Still, can't beat Trenchmouth.

Nice. Pretty much everything above Legends Class is a purchase for me. Only ones I don't see getting are Laserbeak and Megatron.

hmmm. looks like someone went mad with photoshop. sort of glad that none of these are particularly exciting for me, there are a few characters I'd like, but not looking like that. at least i'll save some money.

Really? That's a GUN? I honestly can't tell. It's probably a combination of blurry pics and the fact that my glasses are in the other room. Either way, Swerve still looks good.

Maybe overstock will come over, or be offered on HTS. More likely Europe will eventually import them cheap.

Liking Hot Spot a lot. The rest are okay, to not needed.
