NEWFLASH: TRANSFORMERS AIMED TOWARDS CHILDREN, RUINS TRANSFORMERS FOREVER SINCE 1984
I also like these. I want these. Especially Smoulder. I hope he appears in animated media voiced by Dennis Bateman. This would complete the deal for me.
I'd better have a job by the time these are out, it's looking hard to chose.

Smolder's combiner head mold is the only head of any figure from PCC that looks half way decent. Huffer's combiner head mold is laughable.

I really like what we're being shown with these PCCs. I also like that they released a new Huffer toy, but he reminds me of Machine Wars Hubcap more than anything...

That's not a bad thing! I love that little guy. I've been trying to find a cheap WreckerHook for a while now.

Well, I'm going to save this for some time in the future when it will be extra funny.
It is now the Mini-Con prodigy's duty to sex up the fandom when I'm too busy to do so.

I'd be down for some neon green action. For whatever reason, translucent Mini-Cons just click with me. I don't really care for them otherwise. Backwind looks awesome as all get out to me. I'm really interested to see what kinda repaint fun and mix and match madness is possible for future releases.
Limited really. There`s going to be little or no action until Takara gets their hands on these guys. Then the hypothetical beaver dam is going to explode and we're going to see some mad repaints circa X-Dimension, Linkage, Micron Legend.
X-dimension? I have yet to find those, anywho, I smell win from your brain. Are you perhaps... a mind blowing genious ?
When it comes to anything to do with Transformers Mini-cons, I'm the damn prodigy.I want to make love to you because of that. Lol. You're my hero on 7 new levels. You're past the 4 star sabers, on my list. xD

Seconded on the pictures, these figures look better and better every time I see a picture of them. I am looking forward to them.

I can't really compare to you though. You're in the room and Armada Sureshock and Cliffjumper drop their pants.

Yeah, I understand that but it seems after every couple series of Transformers the toys seem to become worse and that's why I said they're kiddish. I mean come on it's 2010 now they should be able to do way better than this.

That's real funny. Thanks for that, it really did make me laugh.

For whatever reason my follow up to this never posted. The last sentence really pertains to the PCC line in general. I wasn't clear there. Also, shhhh Takara will hear you. Although, for THESE Mini-Cons, I might actually buy into that.

Oh, of course it's not a bad thing, Machine Wars was awesome
On a side note though, I realized I really like the placement of the underarm gun - it's reminiscent of the G1 toy with its (albeit reversed) smokestack arms.
The other ones are nice too, especially Searchlight =o

Here are some pics I took comparing PCCs with other figures.
Hope they answer some questions....
Here is smolder exchanging axes with Botcon Fallback.
Chopster in gun mode attached to the Minicon port on Armada Deluxe Optimus Prime.
Smoulder holding Over-Run in gun mode.
Armada Deluxe Optimus Prime holding Chopster. (Hopefully Chopster can be used with WFC Optimus too, so he will have an axe.)
As you can see, PCC Minicons are compatible with other figures and PCC Bots can hold other weapons without problem.
The only incompatible part is with the Energon combiners.
Here is a size comparison with TFCC Heatwave. Heatwave, being a Deluxe figure, is larger than the PCC torso bot.
The combination ports are also of different shape. Heatwave's are octagonal in shape, whereas PCC combiner ports are squarish.
Here is a size comparison with TFCC Terradive, who transforms into one of the limbs. Clearly, he is too large to be paired up with Huffer. Even if they could combine, it wouldn't look good anyway.

This really makes the PCC line make sense. Huffer and Searchlight, sick of being two of the smallest Autobots go and fashion some earth vehicles into limbs, steal some Minicons and change Alt modes, and now they're the same height as the other 'Bots. PCC limbs: Elevator shoes for Minibots and Throttlebots.
