Nightglider and Dark Scream were flying squirrels too.

Secret squirrel business

Mole next?

That reminds me of an joke.
Three moles travelling in a line through their underground tunnel looking for food. The lead mole stops & says I can smell toffee. The middle mole says I can smell caramel. The mole in the rear says all I can smell is molasses.

After finally getting the Bee and Megs box to complete the set, here's my list:

4) Bumblebee. He have a fantastic bot mode and I adore the ninja motif. But his "transformation" is basically just the bot laying down and wearing a air-glider. Sad.

3) Starscream. He's great looking and I adore the falcon concept. But he's basically a variant of Kingdom Airrazor. Been there, done that.

2) Megatron is pretty damn NASTY in all the right parts. The transformation is clever albeit a bit janky. The only thing that hold him back is he feel like a premold of a possible modern version of Pretender Snarler.

1) Optimus Prime is the clear winner of this wave. He got a design that is truly, unashamedly original. An ox pulling a cart that transform into a bad-ass samurai is genius. Plus the transformation is truly something new. His only flaw is his "truck" chest in bot mode. It should have been something more "samurai" like. Appart that small detail, this Optimus knock it out of the park.
