Is it just me or does it look like he's doing these reviews at work? Notice the grid style ceiling.

And his review of Prime just reinforces my hate for this figure. Maybe if they had never released BB OP last year to replace the first voyager, I wouldn't feel this way. But alas they did, and I do.

Will get Ironhide. Maybe Shockwave and the Nascar. Have to see the Nascars in person though.

Peaugh, one thing I'd like to know during the review is more what your take on the figures, beyond the explanation of them and the transformation. Do you like this line so far? Would you recommend such and such figure? These are things I'm wanting to know. Edit-He did exactly this for the Skids review. But I was more curious about the Dreads, OP, and Shockwave videos.

I'm liking the head sculpts on Megs and Crankcase. CC especially!

I'm quite pleased that they went outside of the box a bit and gave us a monstrous/demonic looking figure.

The uglier the better for me :grin:

I really like Shockwave, Megatron, Prime, and Crankcase. They are all looking pretty good! Hopefully we'll get some leaders soon, besides Sentinel Prime... And I do like how Megatron is more symmetrical this time, like the first movie, and has his fusion cannon on his arm. His face and rust may bother me though. You would think if he can fix both his arms, he could fix his face too and get rid of his rust problem. There is an abundance of steel wool on Earth and Starscream has lots of time! :lol:

I'm really starting to like these, even Optimus. He looks like he got an armor upgrade and the cannon reminds me of Samus Aran's cannon with the way it opens. I was liking Skids until I saw how HUGE his feet are and I'll pass on Ironhide because of his crappy shoulder articulation.

only ones im feeling are shockwave and megatron(in leader class) and iirc arent we getting HA versions of the wreckers im more inclined to get that than those deluxes.

I am really digging the heads on Crankcase and especially Roadbuster. They are HILARIOUS! I will probably be buying most of this line.

Anyone look at Crankcase and think Shrapnel?

While my stance on the way these figures look still stands, I can't deny the beauty of the transformations. If I happen to have any free cash at the time I'll likely pick up what I can just to play around with. I love all the moving parts, and especially chunks like the Dread's foot that flip around, collapse, and slide and whatnot. It's the back kibble that killed that figure for me.

I do feel better aout the new HA figures though, and wouldn't feel bad about collecting them now. They may just sit in a certain mode (depending on the figure - helicopter does look awesome as a gun; buggy's meh-ish in any mode).

And I'm also digging the various heads we've seen so far! LOL, I'm amused at the redneck (though tentative about the character), and love the Dread's head (reminds me of one of my fav OC heads).

I'm much more optimistic now thanks to Peaugh!

Thank you for the excellent video reviews. well done as always. :APPLAUSE:

As for the line itself I am not all that impressed. I still dont like the giant mech tech weapons, but something strikes me as even worse - What the heck did they do to the HA line? We had awesome vehicles from the previous HA line, and now they want to make these things? They dont even look like Transformers.. those vehicle modes are disgusting. :BANG_HEAD:

Shockwave looks good, Starscream looks good (for his class size). Everything else not so much... I guess time will tell, but I am already looking for wave 2.
