Airwave: my favorite reveal, I love it. That robot mode is a cross of IDW Ironfist, Guzzle, and Broadside maybe, and i adore it.
Alicon looks OK, but that beast mode isn't very good to me. Will still buy.
Megatron: see Smokescreen.
Doubledealer: that is the good stuff right there, wonderful. Buy on sight.
Sky Lynx: perfection, I love it! Everything about him is fantastic.
Scorponok: a wonderful end to the main city bots, he looks really good
1. Okay, first off,
Armada Smokescreen wouldn't work for that mold
Second, he's likely going to be more accessible than the SIEGE Selects version (Which he largely improves on deco-wise) so there's that. Hm.. Now that you've got me thinking about the Unicron Trilogy (which is not very difficult, considering that
Cybertron's theme song is etched into my brain), maybe instead of rehashing all the Datsuns with this mold they'll do a Crosswise homage. If they do rehash the other SIEGE Datsuns, then I hope that two of them get relegated to an exclusive two-pack while only one gets a retail release (not sure if Bluestreak or Barricade would be better).
2. Yeah, Airwave looks fun.
3. We've only seen one shot of the Allicon's beast mode yet, so it might be better than that one pic makes it look
4. Megatron needs to either be given a new color scheme to make him interesting, or given the boot.
5. Yeah, Doubledealer looks excellent. I'd like to see a Clouder redeco, but I'm not sure they'd bother given that
Masterforce's animators screwed up royally and used the US toy's colors.
6. Scorponok is SHUT UP AND TAKE MY MONEY.
