I was interested in this a few months back, but with some of the new stuff that's been leaked in recent days, this looks rather dull in comparison. To be honest, I'm far more interested in the new Animated Bumblebee and upcoming figures for ROTF.
It's perfectly acceptable, for what it is, but let's not fool ourselves, most of the other Universe figures looked better. The colours here are cheap and nasty, and the overall figure just looks dated. In that one picture next to Sideswipe, Hot Shot looks like junk in comparison.
But I was never an Armada fan, so it's not really for me to judge. Any ideas if they'll do anything better for repaints? The mold would probably be alright with less gaudy colours. The Henkei looks a little better.

JAaM!
This mold actually looks pretty cool, the alt mold reminds me of an Audi TT.
I want to see comparison shots between this and the Henkei though.
I'd love it if the mold got a Stunticon Dead End repaint.

interesting transformation. I'm gonna look foolish for asking, but what is the significance of 'JaAm'?

I'm thoroughly impressed. The license plate is a really nice nod to the fans.
The transformation though, that's what sold me. It's handled quite nicely.
He's a definite must buy in my book.

When I saw the prototype images I thought he looked awesome. In these colours I'm very unimpressed. I shall be needing some paints for this figure!

Once again the fandom gets something just for them included in a figure, Hot Shot's JaAm plate makes an already awesome figure just that extra bit more epic.

I like the mold, but don't care for the color scheme. (But that's what repaints are for, right?)

Well without fans they wouldn't make sales so...
I don't really mind the figure, not a great fan in these colours and I've got no attachment to the cartoon but I can see its a nice remake.

is anyone else getting bandwidth exceeded when trying to view the pics, or is it just me?
My vote for the HOF goes to my favorite Transformer, Kup, to the Headmasters (who still need new figures that aren't just the characters without their master components) and to seibertron.com for for being the ultimate TF resource.
