Thanks to HK-TF we in-hand images of several upcoming Transformers Bot Shots. We get a look at the Bumblebee/Shockwave/Skyquake set, the Cliffjumper/Brawl/Dirt Boss set, Launchers Wave 3 with G1 Optimus Prime and Bumblebee, and lastly the Super Bot Single Sunstorm. Check out the images mirrored below.

Loving the Bee head sculpt... that's obviously intended as Cliffjumper. Now if we can get them to release it in the correct colors.

It always bugs me how they won't put out the correct colors FIRST. By the time it rolls around, you have mold degradation... or the line has lost steam and you never see the nice paint scheme at all.

Strange how corporations make their odd decisions.

New Shockwave with better hands and single cannon, for the win! Perfect color along with red Ironhide, too. Bammm!

Loving just about everything except Bee's out of character "war face" and Prime's oddly bulky, dragging appendage.

Anyone else thinking these are starting to look like happy meal toys, what with the use of the cartoon looking faces and limbs?

The green jolly rancher seeker looks delicious!

Yeah, the silly faces aren't so cool but so far I like most of them. Only picking up the ones I don't already have a version of (besides OP) though, so that's probably CJ, Ironhide and Shockwave so far.

Yeah, the line has been so all-over-the-map with its character choices (and repeated characters), I'm guessing few people are trying to collect ALL of it.

For me, I've been trying to pick up the G1 characters, along with any fun sets or launchers.
