I wish we would get that design of Optimus in promotional images. Nothing against the boxart, but I wish that head he has would either have a mouthplate, a more show accurate head, or an older face. I mean, look at that:

I thought the cards would be hand-drawn, like comic-book style. These CG renders are frankly... disappointing. Plus, they feature 3 of my least favorite characters in Prime: A) Grandpa Optimus - "Now go to bed early Autobots and fight evil!" B) Bumblebee - "I'm cool and I talk now and there are a billion of me on shelves! SCRAP!" C) Megatron - "I AM EVIL AND SCREAM A LOT BUT DON'T REALLY TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR MY ARMY OR MISSIONS! I'M LIKE YOUR ABUSIVE DAD WHO SHOWS UP JUST TO MAKE YOU FEEL LIKE CRAP WHEN SOMETHING GOES WRONG! AND I BEAT YOU! WOO!"
Words from the wise: GuyIncognito - "MetroSUplex, do you understand inflation? I'm guessing not."

And compare it to this:
Dude, your sig is too large, choose one pic and loose the rest, it's in the rules.
How are these collector cards? You can only get them in this set, and there won't be more to complete the set so what's the point or appeal to these? If they where exclusive artwork or special variants of blind packed trading cards I would see the need to call them collector's cards.

I wasnt too impressed with Predacons Rising. Although we finally did get get some new Predacons (a big 2 lol) What was the point of using Target repaints in the movie ? And why no Lazerback and Ripclaw ?

To promote the Predacons Rising toys with the Predacons Rising movie?
