Like:

HA Jazz
Insecticon

Don't like:

Optimus Prime
Yet another $%@#$%% Bumblebee
Ironhide

Please, please, please stop issuing the same characters over and over again. I have had enough of Prime and Bumblebee even though they are new molds.

I'm accepting HA Jazz because he has yet to have a cool toy and this is very cool. Insecticon because it is a brand new mold.

HA Jazz looks awesome. The only HA I have is BB, but I'll probably get Jazz.

I'm disappointed with Insecticon. The colors are boring, and the wings look dumb.

wow, I had to take a second look after your comment, I just assumed it was an unpainted prototype, if that is the actual colour application that IS boring.

too bad.

Being honest, the only reason I really want that Voyager Prime is so he can get his ass kicked by Voyager Megs, Starscream, and Blackout. I want the Bumblebee because it looks good, and I NEED to get Insecticon because I've gotten every insect transformer since Beast Wars as well as an incomplete G1 Insecticon collection, so I'd hate to break up the flow. I will also need to get 20 of him just because. :CON:

Nice figures coming up. Thinking of getting Deluxe Bumblebee and Ironhide, as well as maybe Voyager Prime. Insecticon looks alright too. HA Jazz on the other hand, I'm definitely getting. I like most of the HA figures, but in Canada they cost $50, so I tended not to get them, but for some reason I just really like Jazz.

I'll likely pick all of these up when they come out, including the V-Prime, since this mold seems to be more accurate than the one that I have from the first movie. The BB is JUST different enough to make it past my blatant repaint radar. HA Jazz is a must, though I find the mini-figs that come with HA in general to be crap. Sad, really, cause I saw a Matchbox Battle Force 5 toy at Y'All-Mart the other day and the mini-fig that came with it looked worlds better despite being considerably smaller. Ah well.

Insecticon is a decent looking figure, boring color scheme notwithstanding. He places 2nd in ROTF's most ignominious Decepticon deaths with his head getting pulled off by Sam's finger and thumb. Third was Demolisher getting capped in the head while helplessly lying beneath an overpass, and first was that protoform that slid out of its stasis sac and instantly died, which Starscream proceeded to shake around like a floppy rag doll and toss unceremoniously at Megs' feet. Now THAT figure I want...please Hasbro? :lol:

Is it just me or does the Insecticon's robot mode remind anyone of the drones in Halo 2 and 3?

The Insecticon looks like the little scout from the movie that Sam ripped in two pieces when he was hiding in the village. So again we are looking at an oversized version of the movie bot. (similar to the toaster)
