No, It's Dylan Gould, but maybe in Japan he's named mr.cruel?

Some sites have the tendency to mistranslate Japanese kana rather badly, so I wouldn't think too much into it. So far Japan has kept all American names.

Here is hoping for:

1: HA TOPSPIN
2: HA SIDEWAYS
3: HA QUE "WHEELJACK"
4: Leaderclass BLACKOUT
5: Voyager SCRAPPER
6: Voyager OVERLOAD
7: Voyager HIGHTOWER

8: A bigger combining DEVASTATOR that can do all 3 modes

9: Voyager BONECRUSHER
10: Leaderclass Ratchet
11: A decent JETFIRE

Off the top of my head those are all musts... ill let you know if i think of something else...

PS - Why wasnt the FALLEN that Stealth Bomber we saw concept pictures for... that would have been sick. Cybertronian modes suck... outside SHOCKWAVE

Look, your preaching to the quire bud, but hasbro won't turn out a quarter of that stuff you just mentioned.
I wan't a PROPER third bike sister to combine with the other two, all constructicons as well, pretty much EVERYTHING you mentioned, plus that quadraped dumpster trash truck dude from DOTM, as a sizable voyager.

Can't see much but what i can make out looks nice.

I don't get the HA Soundwave, why a Cruel something figure? There are enough characters in the movie that they can include why must they create one?

I'd rather see them include Patrick Dempsey's character.

I can't wait to get this guy, and also I'm waiting for HA Leadfoot to get to my local Target!

Anyway, that armored prime looks leader sized. If so, we may (Crosses fingers) Be looking at this line's leader prime. so far we have sentinel, bee, and ironhide, megatron and shockwave are on the way, so prime needs a new leader release in the us, but with that new vehicle mold, it may be easier to transform, for those who complained.
I see it happening, but with that, we might have to say tata to a US Released jetwing....
All just speculation.

We already know its a leader, but as of right now its a Japan Exclusive, but it is still not confirmed, so lets hope fora US release.

LET IT BE KNOWN THAT IT IS PATRICK DEMPSEY'S CHARACTER, DYLAN GOULD!

its ashame too... instead we will keep getting new molds labeled as from the movie verse but that werent even in the movie. Look Hasbro i understand if you want to make Spacecase, Bludgeon, and others... but dont label them as Dark of the Moon or other movie verse lines... it irritates me because actual transformers in the movies(Scrapper) dont get toys. stick them in another line then or something. and those turd bots from the HA alliance basics line... save the plastic.

i dont want to leave this post on such a negative note. i will leave you with some epic wins from the new movie toyline:

1: Leaderclass Sentinel Prime
2: Voyager Shockwave
3: HA Roadbuster

Oh how I can't wait to see these figs in stores

It's not uncommon for Hasbro to make figures of transformers that weren't in the shows or movies. They've been doing it for as long as I can remember, even back in G1, though some of those ones, instead of show/movie apperances, made comic appearances. It's part of the line.

lol

i can't make out the alt mode of striker prime without it blurry-ing, buut looks pretty cool.

That isn't the alt mode that's actually the Stealth Force made! That mode still looks amazing either way!

I understand that... but my point is Hasbro should focus on movie characters that are actually IN the movies first.

so is this striker optimus prime another frickin deluxe or a voyager?i hope its a leader.

HA Leadfoot and HA Soundwave look amazing. Can't wait for either of them. Que/Wheeljack, we'll see. He is afterall my favorite Autobot so it would seem silly not to pick him up. Don't care for another Leader Prime- Ultimate is all I need

On a side note though I really am crossing my fingers for Leader Shockwave. This MUST happen!!!

My only intrest is wheeljack (cuz he's my favorite character of all time!) and I like the deluxe leadfoot but I didn't buy the other wreckers so I'm gonna have to pass, but I think he's the best deluxe wrecker.. (the worst is roadbuster cuz his veichle mode is not weaponized like he is in the movie.) so if I was gonna get a deluxe wrecker my choice would be leadfoot hands down!! But the only robot I want from the dark of the moon toy line is wheeljack..

White repaint= GREY'S ANATOMY ACTION FIGURE

I really hope that the Striker Prime can still mount up with the Jetpack unit from the Jetwings Prime.

, Are the photos really that small? it's obviously the leader figure.
