They have started implementing robot modes in HMW. Right now they are only protoforms, but I say soon we will have actual robot modes.

It would be nice if we got 4 or so botmodes made available for "testing purposes".

Oh it's so nice to see a member of the support staff not knowing what's going on.

This keeps getting more and more interesting...so, I gotta wonder:
a) Will this just be a 'gimmick' initially, where the robot mode is just for visual fun?
b) ...or will this give us DIFFERENT tactics and thus allowing for some very interesting and creative combo's of alt mode and robot mode.
(Oh PLEASE let it be B!!)

I bet it changes to the same color of your alt.

Personally I wouldn't mind seeing bot images get tied to something down the line, though precisely what yet, I don't know.
