Personally I'm ok with them. They're pretty much the same, just more stylized.


They look good to me.

Im not saying I wont buy them, but Im not digging the elongated look they went for with the car and the two jets. That is definitely not the original G1 toys proportions. I cant remember if the vehicles were that way in the cartoon. Robot modes are nice though. I wish scattershot was a little smaller or his limb bots a little bigger like they did with feral rex. Not a huge fan of the bow and arrow. But I will still buy them to get Computron on my shelf. I wonder what pricing will be. Unlike TFCs defensor, I think it will probably be better to pick these guys up on the first run. Maketoys stuff sells quick.

What do you guys think of it?

I've loved the bow from the first time I saw it. I agree that it is a bit unique. (Animated Rodimus and TF: Prime Arcee are figures that have bow weapons, off the top of my head.) I remember seeing a drawing with Computron with the bow earlier in the thread, but the link appears to be dead. I'm not sure if it was art for this toy or directly from the comics. Regardless, I like it to differentiate Computron from other combiners. I find it a nice "Classics" reimagining.

Now, for the sake of my wallet and sanity, can you release these in pairs of limbs and Metalstorm on his own, MakeToys? Plus, I like to fiddle with the individual bots a bit before getting them combined up and on my shelf.

P.S. These look AWESOME!! Nice work, MakeToys. :APPLAUSE:

I want its babies! :x

wasn't too bothered by the grey proto pics, but damn does this thing shine up nice in colour!

:ic$:

Lightspeed is the worst of the bunch, but he's not terrible. Bot mode is actually pretty nice when posed and the vehicle's alright. I'm probably just down on him because he's all red, and he's a car. Fairly plain, but that's what he has to be.

Strafe is really nice in vehicle mode, a huge improvement over the G1 design actually, and I liked that a lot. Bot mode is a nice update too, and I love that he can use the guns or the wings as swords, or seemingly both together. Very cool.

Afterburner is presumably the chef of the group, going by his oven mitts, but other than that he's fantastic! Even the hands aren't too bad, just a bit unusual really. Both his modes look great (LIGHTCYCLE!) and he's got some brilliant weapon options. I like the shoulder missile pods, but reckon he'll probably be sporting the hammer if I get him.

Nosecone's lower legs don't wow me, but the rest of his body makes up for it. And the colours! Oh the colours! Really great bot mode, my favourite of the team in fact, and his alt mode is much nicer than I thought possible given what they had to work with. Wonder if the designer only had Nosecone as a kid and really loves him?

Scattershot is a serious badass in robot mode. The standard and powered-up vehicles are alright, but he does make a nice torso. The whole combined form looks awesome, actually. Wasn't sure about the bow weapon before, but I kinda love it now.

Going to have to see prices, but the somewhat "out there" designs of these guys have me really excited. I've no particular love for the source characters but these toy designs give me the same feeling as when I saw RID Magnus and Prime for the first time way back when.
assembling a Neo-G1/TF:TM cast. Please PM if you have (or know of) the following at a reasonable price: Classics or Henkei Astrotrain, Sunstreaker, Sideswipe, or 3rd Party iGear Ratchet and Ironhide.
Also looking for Universe Repugnus and Overbite, Frostbite and Longhorn and any Webdiver toys.

MakeToys states an August 2014 release date, so I'd imagine pre-orders can go up as soon as MT sets a price and gives the okay to solicit.

Maketoys may have almost hooked me, as these guys look really awesome for a team of bots I never cared for before. =P~ Hopefully seeing the price tag will knock me back to reality-land.
