Powerglide looks like a nice redeco, but Bee looks like another "Hey, look kids! Bumblebee looks super cool now! He's all stealthy and stuff! Buy it!" scheme. Optimus Prime has little to no changes, as does Sideswipe (but it is a bit more obvious that he has some more paint on him). Crowbar is, well, decent.

One decepticon? Wow, Crowbar is f**ked. I might just get this, only because I don't have any of these and I want that Optimus.

How many of those preview Optimus figures did Hasbro make? Stores have been giving it away now for months and now it's been repackaged in a set. :BANG_HEAD:

I don't know how Hasbro interprets "Bumblebee is a popular character" as "Bumblebee should be included in some form in every bundle we sell".

I have 3 legends class Bayformer Bumblebees, and I don't even collect Bayformers.

Maybe the next gift set will have 4 Decepticons and 1 Autobots.

I'd love to see an Ultimate set be more like the 3 dreads (crowbar, Hatchet, and Crankcase) vs the 3 wreckers. I'd buy that one Hasbro

How does 1 Decepticon vs 4 autobots equal an ultimate Gift set? Should be more like the ultimate about to get your a%& kicked set.

An idea that probably would have sold better would have been the ultimate autobot set, getting rid of Crank case for Ironhide.

Oh, they got me. This is the perfect gift for my 3 year old! All in one package, figures I don't care about getting destroyed, but ones he will love. It's a buy. Not for collecting, but for finding under the couch next May with 5 missing pieces. :lol:

There's a good few of us who've been advocating those names since the repaints were revealed. Apparently no-one at Hasbro heard us ;)

Joking aside though, I'm reckon it could be in Hasbro's benefit to have one of their employees spend a few hours scouring the major forums every now and again...

There's always repurposing ;) "Sky Shadow? He looks like a green Powerglide! FAIL"

Again, joking aside, I'm tempted, largely by the fact I actually don't have but one of these molds, and that one's been repainted in the set.

There IS always repurposing, but it'd be nicer to be able to go:

"Sky Shadow? Ah! Because he's got the colours of the Beast Wars Fuzor and the alt-mode of the Mini-con and Energon Superion component... Nice triple-homage Hasbro. Nice."

I agree, and it might just be me but that sideswipe looks a Sidearm Sideswipe repaint. But Optimus and Bumblebee are wwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwaaaaaaaaaaaayyyyyyyyyyyy to overused. just the movie trilogy we've gotten 9 Optimus molds not with repaints and god knows how many more Bumblebees. Hasbro should find better people to make. :BANG_HEAD: :BOOM:

Considering Hasbro stock is over 12% higher now then when the first movie came out in 2007 I would advise them to ignore all the business advice being offered here.

Powerglide = Sky Shadow
Crowbar = Eradicon
Sideswipe = Mach 5

Anyways, didn't we already see these pics before? I kinda remember seeing Optimus fallen over like that.
