Pure awesomeness. I love Transformer news.

A G1 Redco Voyager movie Prime!

The animated figures look good, although a little squat in alt mode. Still, Bumblebee and Black Arachnia especially look good.

ELECTRONIC GUITAR SOUNDWAVE!!!!!! Must have that!

by **Mr. Xanis** » Sat Jul 28, 2007 4:33 pm

Animated ones arn't as good as I thought they would be... Megatron is another unknown jet it seems. The G1 Optimus (First Strike) looks awesome. Movie figures look awesome.

Wow for some reason my fears about the Animated show have been lifted! Theose figures look actually kind of cool! I had no idea how they were going to pull off these figures from the aniamted show since theyare going with such a odd aniamtion style, but I have to give it to Hasbro....they have pulled it off quite nicely! Damn i'm drooling...can't wait!

I was kinda disappointed that there weren't any pics of Galvatron but I love the look of the animated figures and I am glad to finally have some more Dinobots....

Wow, I guess I wrote my thread at the same time as this one. Cool.

OH GOD YES!

Those three classics are worth the wait. Sunstreaker looks very similar to Sideswipe, but I'm happy. They both look gorgeous. Octane looks excellent too!

But Animated, oh my god no! Why must they look deformed, with body's to small for their limbs, and SS's giant chin? WHY!?
Well, as long as Hasbro keep churning out Classics, they can do what the bloody like with Animated, and I will have no part in it.

I really want some of these new movie figures too. They look brill.

by **Talous** » Sat Jul 28, 2007 4:43 pm

The animatewd figures look intresting but I agree with L.O.R. they do look a litte squashed.

by **kendragon** » Sat Jul 28, 2007 4:45 pm

I was wondering when we were going to get a sector seven buggy... that landmine looks pretty cool.

by **Dispensor** » Sat Jul 28, 2007 4:45 pm

What the hell is with the translucent blue on Brawl? That looks **** horrible!

EDIT:
Oh god, the Animated toys suck!

EDIT:
Hey, is that a S7 car? Looks like they're Transformerizing a lot of movie vehicles!

Second, the only animated figure that looks half decent is Starscream. Is it just me or do most of the animated figures look like they wont be out of place in a Fischer Price line?

As for those new classics. they're awesome especially Sunstreaker and Sideswipe seeing as they are still Lamborginis.

I also like the G1 redeco of Voyager movie Prime, but why do we have to get another cliffjumper repaint, just how many times do Hasbro have to hock movie Bumblebee(although Ultimite Bumblebee is really good looking and nearly as big as Primus BTW).

That's supposed to be the Allspark, all of the new movie figures are going to have it.

by **RatchetMD** » Sat Jul 28, 2007 4:49 pm

I do not dislike The Animated toys as much as I thought I would. I actually like the Prowl and Prime designs a little more after seeing them in toy form. Ratchet doesn't look as accurate as the other Autobots though.

I applaud hasbro for trying something new with transformers animated. I would never have been able to do something like that if I were in charge, and the end result will probably be great for kids. However I'm not interested in any of them, except prime. For him the weirder he gets the cooler it adds to the collection, since there are already an absurd amount of regular primes.

The classics figures weren't actually shown right? All I saw were concept pics that really just look like comic artwork and not really like toys. If they were shown someone please direct link me!

Classics Line=AWESOME!
New TF Movie toys=AWESOME!
Animated show toys+not so much.

Not too fond of the toys from the tv show, but I'm just glad that TF are still going. I might not like them, but I'm sure some do, as well as, kids.

Well I like both the classics 2.0 designs that showed as well as some of the animated show stuff. But I will wait untill I see it in the stores to make my final judgement.

by **Slumble B** » Sat Jul 28, 2007 4:59 pm

I liked the new movie stuff and the new classics stuff ruled, but the animated stuf...eh...not so much.

Oh well, just more money in my pocket.

I can't wait to see the new movie and classics stuff get released. They will look great in my collection.

I actually like that design of Animated Bumblebee. Not really so much the others though.

And I am definitley looking forward to the Classics 2.0 line.

Landmine looks awsome. Incinerator is cool but the hands are crap, Stockade is cool i think he would make a good trailbreaker, Cliffjumper is ok. I may keep him in the box same with G1 prime, Evac is crap as is brawl, Hell yeah sunstreaker and Octane! About frikin time, I dont like the cartoon toys at all. Bumblebee looks ok in bot mode but the car is crap. So far i only like the bike guy,Grimlock, Megs and screamer. The rest are crap. This show better have a really good story other wise im not interested. Come on New Classics!!!!!!!
