I see it as the inverse of that. People cannot say anything about what they have seen but now that hasbro themselves have leaked it by mistake, they can share what they know. What I find interesting is the various interpretations.
Anyway it's a bold move to do these guys but I welcome it if it's getting done correctly. This means not just one stand-alone figure, folks around for Energon can tell you how this guy warmed shelves
In my neck of the woods, I never saw Alpha Quintesson at any normal retail stores, only ever seeing it one time at Once Upon A Toy in Downtown Disney (now known as Disney Springs).blackeyedprime wrote:ScottyP wrote:Bingo.william-james88 wrote:AcademyofDrX wrote:IF Hasbro decided to release a Quintessons figure, especially in a Generations line, I would expect rotating faces at a minimum.

Yup, shelf warmed real bad when it wasn't released in the UK, was hard to get and still kind of pricey on the after market today.

In Demand Toys has the same images, plus Soundbarrier, the Hot Rod Patrol Trip-Up and Daddy-O aka Big Daddy, and finally shots of the Military Patrol Bombshock and Growl. The latter Patrol is quite interesting as they show how far the part sharing has come, as they use Topshot and Flak parts:
- Growl uses Flak's chest and 5mm peg, and Topshot's upper legs
- Bombshock uses Flak's legs, and Topshot's cannon
In other words, most of their grey parts are recycled. The magic of gang-molding

That's oddly worded too.

We should be able to figure out now exactly how tall the Cliffjumper figure is! With this in-box picture, we just need to figure out the ratio using the known size of a Deluxe Class Earthrise box, which should be the same as a Siege Deluxe Class box. I'll be happy if he's no more than 2 or 3 mm taller than Titans Return Bumblebee.
