Just Finished My Robot Heroes Movie Line Today With Megatron and Ratchet and Was Wondering If They Plan on Having Ironhide and Starscream?

I Mean I Thought Having Frenzy Was Weird and Kinda Though Starscream Would Have Been A Better Choice.

Thankfully, the whole movie cast will be getting the robot heroes treatment. No word on a release date yet though.

See all the images of the prototypes displayed at Botcon '07 by clicking here.

Oh Screamer looks sweet. I wish I could see all of that Brawl as well. Wonder who he'll be packed with? :-?

You should have followed the link in my post, it's for a gallery of all the wave 2 prototypes. See them all by clicking here, and don't forget to click on "full-size" to see all the detail

These will be perfect for recreating movie scenes! These guys are just so much fun!!!

Thanks for sharin' the images, Skowl.

Very cool... I think I like the new ones even better than Wave 1.
Brawl looks like a Bada$$!!

Any word on more G1 (specific characters)????

Yeah, the next wave looks awesome! Glad to finally see Bonecrusher getting some attention, and yeah, Brawl is badass, he's my favourite of the bunch.

I think the movie designs work fine in Robot Heroes form. They are simplified as much as they can be, but still retain all the charateristics that make the Movie TFs look the way they do.

Hope they expand the line, and do the non-movie "Movie" characters, like Wreckage, Dropkick, Longarm, Arcee and the drones... there is a whole other wave of toys right there!

I had to come back and check out those pix again...
Really, I think they all look amazing.
It almost seems like these new/post wave 1 characters have more detail to each sculpt.
Brawl and Bonecrusher look incredible!!

I hear what you guys are saying about non-movie "movie" characters,
but I really hope they do some more G1ers first.
And I gotta say this idea one more time--

I'd LOVE to see some Gestalts,
where they are sculpted using the same amount of plastic as 2-3 reg. characters,
and packaged individually.
I know they could stylize them with details just as well as what we're seeing in this thread,
which means they would sell like hotcakes!!
Maybe make each wave 3 sets (reg. figures) and 1 gestalt...
Can you guys imagine seeing Devastator, Omega Supreme,
Bruticus, Superion, Menasor, etc.?!?!
If they were 3 times bigger than the reg. characters,
I'd easily pay $10-$12 for each.

These guys are alright, not a patch on the originals though! :P

Ironhide, Scorponok and Bonecrusher's detailing is spectacular, I hope none of it gets lost once the paint has been applied.
