I find it irritating when "official" images are small and low quality.
I'm intrigued by this line, though. Haven't seen any in stores yet, so I'm not completely sure what I think.

Looks lame. Maybe if there was an AllSpark cube that came in the box, it would be SLIGHTLY more appealing.

Ditto on passing and the crappy official pics being so pitifully small and low quality.

Does anybody like these replica molds? You think with cutting out the need to transform they'd do a much much better job of making these things look sharp. I was expecting something a lot better, instead we get what looks like flea market knock offs or something. Cripes, why not just re-release the action master line.

I heard Hasbro had a bad second quarter because of one-time costs, but doing the "official pictures" with a 1.3 Meg camera phone is being waaaaaayyy too cheap...
w00t! 500th post!

So, I'm right in thinking these are Action Masters of 2007?

I can see how people would like the replicas, and they have great weapons, but I personanly don't like them.
As for these two, the Battle Scared Gundams beat these hands down!

1. I hate non-transforming Transformers
2. I hate battle damages on Transformers
That's two facts against these pack for me.

If that were the case, they would be far more impressive.

Looks crappy but I may pick it up once I see it close up. Pics are too small as others have mentioned.

Not even that, a 1.3 megapixel camera means a resolution of 1280x1024. That's more like 200x150.
If it can't transform, it's not a replica. Besides, I think the "unleashed" look a ton better (not that I'd buy one of those either)

Man these look ugly as hell, how can they even consider calling them replicas?
