Can't wait to see the rest of the line.

Thanks for the credit, BTW. -_-

I don't like the edges on the packaging, it should be more like the first movie packaging, mechanical and brighter.

As for Superion being in there, this is just a packaging mock-up. They threw in a random figure to see what it would look like.

I think you mean bottom left. And no, it's a totally different figure. That's Energon Starscream and this is a different mold but is this colour because it's Air Raid.

Has anyone noticed the colors for the A-10's? I mean come on, pink and brown?! *sigh* Guess im better off with the original...

And the first ROTF figure we've seen is a repaint of a figure thats 4 years old? Wow hasbro...wow.

So Superion is in the movie? Hey, it's a possibility!~

Mock-up packaging people, they just put a random figure in there.

it looks alright, not digging the wavy lines on the side though.

It's fun to finally see some official source actually recognizing the fact that this movie is actually being made - but a box doesn't have quite the same punch as a poster or teaser trailer...

HINT HINT.

I feel the same way. Seems like an unnecessary use of the budget to make the wavy lines.

But the colors, hieroglyphics, and "face" look cool.

Right.... And that's why they went to the trouble of putting new headshot art on the box, adding in the correct text, throwing on a Target Exclusive sticker and doing a different vac mold for the figures inside....

My thoughts exactly.

i dunno, makes me think of a "legos" box. The color scheme of gold and bright reds, kind of turns me off. I think i would prefer a darker color scheme t offset the the figure.
I dont think the "face at the top is actually a face *squints eyes*

Gaah! still with the lack of hands and feet! It was a bad idea the first time, infact I didn't buy the ENERGON version because of that, so why not hold some atatchable hands for this one?! :sad:

According to TFW05's insider the eyes at the top of the packaging belong to the Fallen.

The face at the top of the package reminded me of the leaked Soundwave figure's face.

Anyway, all the Target, WalMart, and TRU exclusives from the first movie were repaints from previous lines--I'm sure the 2nd movie will be no different.
