One out of 4 isn't too bad by some standards. And Trailbreaker does look darn good. Megatron's design is fairly different to any we've had toys of before too. Shame it's clearly Voyager sized in the comics mind you.

I'm just hoping for a 2nd wave of these guys, or 3rd or 4th, and that we might get some more comics-original characters (probably get a new Drift as well) like Tarn or some of the other DJD guys. And maybe an IDW Arcee.

I'm all over Targetmaster Optimus Prime. I CANNOT wait to see more of it!

Sweet, thanks

I'm just going to assume that Optimus (or is the artwork we saw a few weeks back is actually Orion Pax?) is NOT a Voyager and is a Deluxe.

Hasbro, why must you make me sad? :sad:

The art we saw a few weeks back, the one Targetmaster Roller one I assume you're referring to? From one of the news posts earlier, it's a separate thing from the Orion Pax. I'd wager that Optimus is a deluxe too, and Orion clearly his (he's visible on the far right of one of the pictures).

Props to the Big Boss and El Duque:

Don't say I never did anything for everyone. >:oP

I think the images to come will be a better look than the video.

Sweet that megatron in alt would sit nice with rotf mindwipe and skystalker .

Latest video, courtesy of Seibertron and El Duque.

Good news: here's that Bumblebee w/ Targetmaster-esque partner (Blazemaster) I was talking about. I'm liking it.

Bad news: Optimus w/ Roller is a LEGENDS! :-(

Posted: **Sat Feb 09, 2013 8:17 pm**

I'm pleased to see these are looking pretty good. Every one of them but Bee is a buy for me. Whoever suggested the Stealth Bomber Megatron become Classics Megaplex... a curse on your grave for I'll need to buy 3 of them (unless Botcon does Megaplex first)

Posted: **Sat Feb 09, 2013 8:27 pm**

Aww, son of a-

Well I'm disappointed, I was REALLY looking forward to the Targetmaster Optimus being a deluxe...this thing is really awkwardly proportioned. Hopefully it'll get better when I see some in-hand reviews.

Bee looks great though, I'll definitely be picking him up, so the Targetmasters shown aren't a total bust. :lol:

They have 5mm hands, too, from the looks of it.

Posted: **Sat Feb 09, 2013 8:27 pm**

Ah, so that Stealth Bomber thing is Megatron? I had no idea. Interesting.

I was praying for a Voyager-scaled Optimus. :-(

I'm uber disappointed.

Same here. But I disagree on the length of their hands. It appears to be the same length as Rumble/Frenzy/Rewind/Eject, which is like 3mm I assume.

dammit! That's FOC/RID comics Bee I think. Either that or a very classics looking G1-esque bot mode, hard to tell. Either way it might be a BB that I'll buy.

Hm, perhaps you're right. They're legends/legion size right? Yeahh, probably 3mm in that case, I don't know what I was thinking. Well, yes I do, I wanted the Optimus to have SOME redeeming factor and at the very least be able to give roller to a more deserving Prime. :lol:

Another Bumblebee...hooray
