AmiAmi- New images of Transformers Revenge of the Fallen Human Alliance figure sets have been shared on the Japanese website AmiAmi.

You can see the original posting of HA Sideswipe and Epps here, and HA Skids, Mikaela and Arcee here. The images are shared below and be sure to check out Seibertron.com's comprehensive gallery of Human Alliance Bumblebee, as well.

The Human Alliance Revenge of the Fallen movie toys team-up a heroic Autobot and a human ally from the movie. The robot has many interactive points for the human to sit, stand, and 'fire' weaponry to assist the robot in his/her battle with the Decepticons. Human Alliance figures are larger than a voyager in size, and have very accurate alt modes.

Hmm... I actually like the deluxe Sideswipe better. This one's too stubby-looking when you consider the lean, acrobatic Sideswipe from the movie. Skids looks good though.

I honestly don't know what to make of Arcee.

I'm skipping all the regular line figures and just getting these.

Arcee is just plain fugly no matter how accurate she is (in bot mode anyway).

Echoing the above comment, I'm gonna have to see Sideswipe in person to make a final decision, but those red calipers on the brakes almost seal the deal alone. Too cool.

For the people who make GIJoe, you'd think Hasbro could make a decent looking Human toy to accompany their Transformers.

Arcee related to Demolishor?

Sideswipe is lookin' kinda fat there...

Cookieswipe or Burgerswipe maybe more appropriate.

Given Skids umm, rather interesting dialogue choices in the film, I don't think Mikaela being able to 'ride' his arm is a good choice. Other than that I'm really thinking I need to get these.

I believe is the back pack thing the make it look fat... Hopefully there is someway to rearrange it.

Arcee looks like ****. She looks like what would happen if Demolisher raped Arcee, she decided to keep the baby anyways, so Demolisher punched her in the stomach, and this poor retarded offspring was the result. Just wanna get that out of the way first. Although I know the only reason she's in this box with Mikaela and Skids is for the extra plastic to justify the price.

Skids looks good, but I just don't like Skids design to begin with.

Mikaela looks great, except for the face. But then again it is difficult to get a face right on a toy, especially one this small. It's hilarious seeing her straddle Skids gun. I'll probably get this set just for that.

Sideswipe, like other have said and I agree, looks very squat. He looks like he's been eating too many energon donuts and pies. But I'll still get this one too, just for my man Epps. Left cheek!


So that's 2 buys from me. Although these look like the typical Hasbro photoshop pictures. So the actually figures will probably look like ****.

I don't even want to start with what that makes me think off......

"Ride that gun bitch!"

Oh sh*t here we go.....


I love these HA, but why does Sideswipe look so out of proportion?

These all suck(Some of the pictures are entertaining though). Deluxe Sideswipe is way better. This one is to stumpy and fat, Arcee is horrible. The deluxe version looks better and i just hate Skids in what ever form hes in. This figure looks like it may be cool (minus the head) but i dont like Skids so im not getting it. They are all a pass for me. Are we going to see come Decepticon one? Instead of humans you could have Alice or Frenzy.

Frenzy is coming in a set with Barricade.

Remember, these are just preliminary pics, the lighting, angles and all that could be making them look worse than they are.

And they fact that the Alternators line broke into the movie is just beyond awesome. It's like we're getting Masterpiece type figures for the movie.

Sadly, Sideswipe seems to be the only one with a SENSIBLE place for a human to be sitting. On his shoulders, with guns to blow things up while he's speeding around slicing and dicing the hell out of them.

Human Alliance in general seems to be a good idea .... but the follow thru keeps falling short. Most of the figures are good, but there's not much human in the HA because they look like second thought tag-on.

The thing is from what I've seen till now, all HA figures let their partners sit on their arm and shoulder.

Alright, Alright.. let's keep it clean people, remember we got kiddies who browse the forums..from 11 year olds on up..(not my kids, I wouldn't trust them around you bunch, LOL Might scar them for life!)

I think that the Skids looks good, movie accurate, and the Arcee is OK.. the Sideswipe, regardless of being a bit chunky, is still cool.

but does anyone notice how the Skids figure went from a metallic minty green to a base plant leaf green in the final pic??

I might get these, might not. got HA Bumblebee, wish the back of his taillights weren't in the front. but.... eh. BB is cool, love the battlemask. Hate the front cab parts that are supposed to be pulled out and rotated around (they keep on snapping back in) But all in all think he's cool so... I might get the other HA figs.

Well, Sideswipe still looks rather chubby but he's got quite a nice paint job and extra details that the better-proportioned deluxe version lacks and the shoulder-cannons are the deal-makers for me. Skids should have his door-wings rotated out of sight (he makes a poor Bumblebee imitator) but is otherwise quite nice. Chromia-gone-red looks crappy, but you have to consider how big the human alliance figures are, making her possibly Micromasters or Minicon-sized so I won't mind the skewed robot mode.

It's simple, really (at least this is how I think it gets done in the most logical manner);

Step 1: Prototype of highest quality is selected.
Step 2: Hasbro gets an employee to painstakingly paint prototype with all sorts of high-quality paint.
Step 3: Painted prototype is posed in white backdrop and photos taken.
Step 4: Behoooold, the magic of photoshop! Now with extra shinyness!

Result: Super-shiny and extra pretty stock photographs that do a poor job at depicting the actual toy shown which may even have gimmicks removed to cost-cut, damn the 'product may vary from image' clause.

Dangit...that Sideswipe looks pretty good. But I already have the deluxe and I don't want to start collecting Human Alliance figs because they don't fit in with the rest of my collection.

Anyway, I like Skids, but Arcee is crap, and Sideswipe looks like his Powerbot figure.

meh - mildly disappointed with these - after the awesomeness of HA Bumblebee, these look pretty crappy - the deluxe versions of these two look way better - and don't even get me started on Arcee - quite like the bike bots - picked up Chromia the other day and she's really grown on me.. - you'd have thought with Arcee being a larger size (i'm guessing), they'd have put a bit more detail in - this 'effort' looks like an oversized legends class.....

Now I know it: Arcee is a shapeshifter!

I share the chubby Sideswipe sentiment. I'll stick with my deluxe version. Although, this HA version looks like it might actually be capable of standing up without assistance. Whoever made the comment about the humans not looking as good as they should, I totally agree. I know they're tiny figures and all, but without them we might as well buy the regular figures. At least give us a bit more bang for a our buck.

And why is this one Mikaela figure wearing more clothes than the character did in both movies combined?
Where's Mini-Skirt Mikaela?

There is just so much wrong with the bikes.
