I think in general they look buyable...

When I was looking at the backs of the packages I noticed all the low intelligence scores of the Decepticons. I think that there should be more than one or two Decepticons with a high intelligence. It makes the series more interesting. It looks like in this case all these are just going to be your typical dumb chasing, blowing things up type Decepticons.

funny, I never recalled a "Wreckage" to be on the run-sheet of the movie....

That's because he's not in the movie. See my post at the top of the page.

ahh, I see. Well, thanks alot for making sence of it. I thought I was going crazy..

This sucks, I can get everything but the pictures, just have to try again later

I really like the look of Jazz and Wreckage, Brawl and Barricade look alright I guess.

Wreckage looks real good! Now I actualy got these images from elsewhere so I don't know if the BIOs posted here as well, but Jazz and Brawl, basicly make up Wreckages. And Barricade has a good one.

The only other thing I have to say about this is that Brawl looks like he has the cyber equivilant of hairy nipples.

I like all of the deluxes pictured on the back of the boxes, except Scorponok. Yuck.
I like Jazz...He's a little thicker than I would normally like (sleek sports cars really should have sleek `bot forms, too), but I'm still getting him. I'm just glad he *looks* like an Autobot. I'm getting Bumblebee too, but I'm calling him a Decepticon.

I like Brawl, but I plan on getting the voyager- and leader-sized versions.
I really like Wreckage! I *so* wish Hasbro would release a larger-sized version of him, too. Like some others have said, I like tanks and planes to be bigger than trucks, and trucks to be bigger than cars. However, I like Wreckage enough that I would get him anyway.

Can't wait to see pics of the other unknowns.

I love Jazz. Dig his head design. Really the most stylish autobot! Now I plan to collect all the autobot team!

I could care less about Frenzy, so him being that crappy skinny anorexic robot doesn't bother me one bit.

Jazz look freakin cool. My favorite Autobot from the movie line. I'm definetly going to get him first. Barricade looks great too.

Wreckage would have been even better if he was a little bigger. Still he looks pretty good.

Looks like I'm gonna be buying a couple of movie figures.

i like all except brawl. and especialy like wreckage he looks more like ratchetthen movie ratchet does

Hm I don't know what to think of Wreckage. He's cool. He's better than some of the other characters but I don't know if I really like him...I think Hasbro could have done better.

Thanks for clearing up Bonecrusher / Wreckage. Yes, it is odd that the nonmovie characters are appearing on the web before all the movie characters.

Looks like I'll be getting the non-movie characters afterall, if they're all gonna be new molds. Damn, I'm gonna be so broke. Jazz looks freakin' amazing, and Barricade is hands down my absolute favorite.

I think that's just for the toy. In the draft, Frenzy transforms into some kind of communication device that plugs into the interior dashboard console of the Barricade's car mode - like a glorified CD player. He's not part of the engine or bumper. He can also interface with other communication equipment that same way.

Skowl is right on the money about Bonecrusher/Wreckage.

Jazz = movie poster child

Now, I'm getting a little confused about which toys I've seen, because there's photos of both deluxe class and fast action battlers going around. But what interests me is that the back of these packages have pictures of six different characters (including the big picture of the figure included), and none of them have Starscream or Ratchet. For that matter, we're also missing Blackout, Bonecrusher, and Ironhide. We've also seen Ratchet in package and he has a different packaging (a box that looks better suited on a shelf than on a peg).

So first of all, there's obviously two assortments.

Second of all, there's 12 total Transformers in the movie; five Autobots and seven Decepticons. Optimus Prime and Megatron are obviously going to be in an assortment by themselves, but that leaves 10 figures to be seperated into two assortments. An odd number is awful for assortments. Thus, the mysterious inclusion of Wreckage (and I agree, he looks awesome).

But now the question is, who's the sixth member of Ratchet's assortment?

Furthermore, we've seen pictures of Blackout out of package and he comes with a mini-Scorponok. This, however, does not mean Scorponok lacks a deluxe figure (and obviously he does, although not a very pretty one). Does this mean Frenzy will have a deluxe figure in yet another assortment? Possibly with the objectformers?

Does Frenzy Transform ?

That's because the figures on the back of the box are all first-wave deluxe. The Ratchet in box and the Starscream we've seen are Voyager-class figures.

Well i like wreckage, he's cool in bot form, 2 thing bother me about him though, One is the stupid gun on top of the altmode, and 2 is the size, its way too small for a troop carrier...

Frenzy and scorponok are major disappointments fo theis series, Frenzy reminds me of a robotic stick figure "army men" with his platform foot.. and scorponok robotic form is horrid, they would have done better just to make him have actions or be robotic in some way rather then give him a bot mode.. how disappointing..

They're ok, I like Wreckage the best so far.

I do try to like them, but so far, Barracade looks ok-ish, in a LOOK AT ME, I'M SOUNDWAVE!... in car form. I am not a fan of the Bionicle meets Preditor look.

Wreckage is nice, but screams Armada Galvatron and Cybertron CD Red Alert had a love child.

Jazz... well, Jazz screams the RiD Dodge and a Kitty combined to me. Car is great. Again, I hate the Bionicle meets Preditor look.[/i]

Starscream looks more like Optimus Primal......

Best first post ever.

Welcome to Seibertron!

That one scene alone would make the movie worth seeing.

Of all the names we saw for movie robots how many do you think are going to be recolors since we know that to be Hasbro's trademark?

I was trying to figure out why I love the toys so much but hate the movie, then it dawned on me; they look nothing like their movie counter parts! With that being said Barricade needs hands, desperately.

I think Jazz looks a Combination of Cybertron Crosswise and Sideways.
