Please clarify Alternators Movie figures. They've got the articulation, detail and complexity already. Upsizing the Deluxe figures to Voyager size isn't going to change much IMO. If anything, car TFs (excluding pickups, trucks etc) should remain Deluxe or Basic, anything bigger is just weird compared to jets and helicopters.

Really, you could just repaint a Alternator Grimlock. The Alt Modes are identical, the robot modes are close enough, and the heads are somewhat similar.

I do find that hard to believe, seeing as how.. different the movie figures heads are.

They should have integrated their movie line into their exisitng brands like Masterpiece or Alternators. I just want Jazz or Bumblebee redone as an alternator. With more heft and more room for movie accurate detailing.

Koko Beware vs The Iron Shiek with Paul Stanley as the guest referee in a two story cage match over a bed of tacks is a good idea.

More Alternators? not so much...

Oh don't get me wrong, I'd love to see voyagers as alternators and leaders as masterpiece, but i don't think hasbro would decide to cancel alternators only to jump back into it just for movie figs.. though they would be AMAZING.

Definitely. He and 2008 BB would be great next to 20th Anniversary Prime. Old meets new.
