Both look nice. The bot modes of both could use some stickers or applications though.

Ahh.... no green upper arms on Hench, wow that's killlin me... man.

Still keeping the pre-order though...

These look pretty sweet.

If Hasbro released them I'd buy them but I'm not paying 3rd party prices, especially not with Brawn's short thighs. Shame, they look great (apart from the short thighs).

$35.00 is hardly "third party prices". That's less that a Takara deluxe figure and both together are in the same range as the Takara scout 2 packs Frenzy/Runble and Windcharger/Wipeout.

Brawn is perfect. Cosmos is 98% perfect minus the stupid buzz lightyear helmet. I wish they had made it removable for those who dont want a comic book Cosmos. Im still getting both anyways.

I believe the dome for UFO is removable.

One thing they have kept out of the spotlight is the fact that Cosmos's waist stick out (down) in alt mode. I have noticed it in a couple pictures. It's the reason why there are any pictures of him in alt mode resting on a table.

still on the fence about Brawn. the move up to Scout/Prime RID Deluxe size is still a bit annoying, since their Huffer is great, and I've got loads of other minibots at that size. However, it does look like a good toy, although, maybe a tad too green? (Brawn was more of an olive kind of colour, right?)

Cosmos is an easy pass. I don't give a damn about the character and this toy isn't anywhere near good enough to make me change my mind on that. Looks pretty good for what it is.

Suppose I'll see what money I have nearer the time. If they're supposed to be out in September, I'll maybe pre-order at the end of that month.

Bring on Gears and Beachcomber! And the Sharkticons too for that matter.

Outback and Whatshisname Outback don't interest me at all, though.
