Those look utterly fantastic.
I want them, but it makes me want the real deal even more.

With the G1 Dinobots unlikely to be reissued & the originals being expensive the WSD's are the next best thing for many collectors and the last 2 look like finishing off the set in style.

Nice, although I'd find a finished one more atractive
Looks good but prices probably are gonna be high.

From TFsource:
"Set Price: WST Jungle Warrior + Mystery Figure Set - $41.90"
About the price of a movie Voyager in my country. I don't think that's too bad.

I just pre-ordered mine yesterday. Just a couple of hours before they posted these images. I can't wait for them to finally release them, my others are lonely.

Well, Justitoys did another good job on these. My finished collection is going to look great. Too bad Takara/Tomy isn't getting the hint...

Wow. Just wow. Swoop is absolutely gorgeous. Guess I know what I'll be asking my wife to get me for Christmas now!

The Justitoys micro dinobots might look a little off scale compared to your G1 bots... but come.... you just "gotta" pose them with Unicron.

Indeed. But in this case tiny=awesome.

I hope they have a set for sale that has all the swords & missile launchers.....then I would have them all in one nice package! These look really great, I just wish they'd have painted Swoop's chest the Dialone blue instead of red.....I can always fix that though!

I think that's still in the realm of possibility. These are prototype images after all.

I have the real Diaclone Swoop, and I can tell you the pointed beak instead of the rounded one is inspired by the Diaclone version. The legs are definitely based on the Transformers version though (the Diaclone Swoop doesn't have an iron bar between the legs).
I fully expect the final versions of these to be cartoon acurate, since all their previous releases were. Already have the others, and they're great.

Those are gorgeous, and make me wish I had money; even though I do only have two WSTs anyway.
I just noticed something, though. I don't recall my G1 Sludge having a movable head. Do these WSDs actually have
more articulation than the originals..?

Hmm...I think I'll re-paint my G1 Swoop. I'm not one to care about value after all these years, all I care about is cartoon accuracy, so a Diaclone Swoop I shall have! (Plus real Diaclone Swoops would cost me a fortune......)
