Yup. RK sometimes got it even earlier. Btw, I prefer this Starscream over the Jetfire retool.

The fact that they are calling it a GDO series means a stateside release probably isn't planned.

The sad part?

That Cyber 11-inch Prime is the closest we'll probably ever get to an IDW-accurate Optimus. ( ._.)

So do I. I'll probably end up getting the two 11" figures and then Megs and Scream

Facebooker José Luis Santana has the Transformers Generations Cyber Battalion Series Optimus Prime, Megatron, & Starscream in hand and took some pictures! Its a more simplified line and appears to be focusing on a G1 aesthetic. They're shown in both modes and even in comparison to some Combiner Wars and Classics figure to give you a feel for scale. Have a look at the images below and stay tuned to Seibertron.com for all your Transformers News!

Those do look very good. I really like them

I like the Megatron. Can the others not bend their knees?

by **LE0KING** » Thu Jun 11, 2015 6:36 pm

Only one I want is Megatron. No knees no buy. >:oP

Bicep swivels on Megatron would've been great, but as is he's still the best of the line to me. Hopefully he'll get a U.S release though, as I don't like him enough to pay import prices on him.

Where'd that other Voyager Prime come from? It's paint layout is different than the usual Combiner Wars Prime. I thought there was only a Hasbro release.

And still is: it's a custom.

I like that Optimus(over the combiner war version and Starscream better. Megs too! Given the TT paint apps. On the otherhand, hat house is a fire trap!Is the owner a m0r0n or what? Can afford a digicam but can't fix that electric outlet?

Prime looks downright anorexic.

These don't really appeal to me, but they seem like they might be good for kids graduating from Rescue Bots or something.

by **@tr_414** » Thu Jun 11, 2015 7:10 pm

Those look terrible. They're essentially larger sized Legends figures. I won't be adding them to my collection.

by **ausbot** » Thu Jun 11, 2015 7:13 pm

I like that megatron, the others are meh!

Starscream dosent need any knees. He would never bend them to anyone anyway. [-(

Well try this: I like them. They are those titan figures done right, with some decent articulation. They also look a bit goofy, which appeals to me. They cool, my side yo

I totally agree, these are the hyerchange and titan figures done right. I would say this is more of a compliment to the rescue bots line. A step between that and generations, without having to go through the other ones.

Why you gotta make them out of two different shades of plastic? I can obviously see the different reds on Optimus. And the metallic gray on Megatron just makes the plastic gray look like absolute garbage by proximity.
