A member of ACtoys has posted an image of the Dune Buggy Human Alliance figure from the upcoming DOTM line. Click here to view the image. Looks to be about Scout size based on the comparison to the laptop he's positioned on.

I want wheelchair-mode pics!

He's a far lighter shade of green than that promo pic, he won't echo his human partner's uniform now.

I admit my interest is piqued by this figure. I may get it, I may not.

Either way the human's getting tossed.

Looks like somebody got their hands on the old M.A.S.K. figure molds and re-purposed them. Can't say as I see the logic in making a mode that has an SRM six-pack parked under the pilots rear end and has the potential of taking his boots (and the feet inside them) off when the top two rounds are fired. Aside from that minor technical flaw, I'm actually a bit intrigued by this bot. Like some of the rest of the folks though, I'm really not interested in the pilot aspect of this whole thing. This is Transformers, not Robotech. If these guys are going to have human partners then bring back the Head/Target/Power Masters with updated articulation.

Since it's a movie figure I guess Bay designed it himself..If you want to be mad at someone be mad at Aaron Archer.. I know g1 fans Hate bay but he is not the source of all evil in the universe..just some of it :P

I'll admit it though..that thing is really ,really,really ridiculously hideous..

I'd buy the heck outta him if he were Joe-scale.

As it is, it falls into the 'neat but no thanks' category.




...I want more Resolute stuff, dangit.

I don't know about you guys, but I am SERIOUSLY underwhelmed by the DOTM figures thus far.

The only one that piques my interest thus far is Megatron, and that's not saying too much...

For all our sakes, I hope I'm wrong.

I agree...and I'm okay with it. I wanted to scale back on the movie figs the last go around, but so many sales led to so many purchases. This time around I think I might succeed. Most of these look like serious ess aitch eye tea. This particular fig I could probably take or leave, but I'm guessing it'll probably be overpriced like the rest of the HA line which will probably lead to a pass.

This may be the first DotM figure I'm actually slightly interested in.

Make that three figures from the DOTM line that are actually good (the others being Ironhide and Megatron. Optimus is crap on a stick). :D

The "wheelchair" mode kind of looks like it should be the torso/head area of a combiner team. The part in the front looks like it flips down and becomes the front of the stomach.

If it doesn't do that... Then what's the point of that mode. It looks silly otherwise.

Hopefully we'll see more images of other bots and their modes soon.

it's sad when this nameless character is the only one who has elicited more than a wtf from me. Seriously he is so far the only one i would even consider buying. Mostly based on his altmode which isnt seen much out of scout size. There may have been one deluxe dune buggy, but im not sure
