Now that's not true, Skywarp could do it!

I really like the look of the figure. I can forgive things like kibble since it's basically a Scout sized figure. However, I'm most impressed by the apparent range of articulation. It's rare for TF figures to be able to strike a wide legged stance as shown in one of the photos.

I have no idea what the hell you are talking about. When did Skywarp ever put out fires :???:

In the last few minutes of the third episode of More Than Meets The Eye in the G1 series. :-B

I think this guy looks great. Yeah, seeing the head in alt mode is kind of a let down, but there have been plenty of other robo-parts visible in alt mode, even amongst the movie toys which are supposed to be more realistic than anything realistic could possibly even dream of being. The blue connector ports are kinda bogus too, but if they changed the paint of those, they wouldn't be all that bad. Looking forward to this line for sure.

I like how he's not a big fire truck, but more like an auxiliary vehicle or a fire-chief's car. I see his alt mode fitting in well with some of the other TF fire-engines, and it's a disguise I've always had a fondness for.
The blue connector ports and lack of 10% of a vehicle mode are a bit disappointing however.

I am super excited for this line. Unusual alt modes? Check. Lots of customisability? Check. Gestalts who won't take up too much space in my tiny apartment? Check.

These guys are looking better every time we see them.

A decepticon firetruck is just as awesome as a decepticon police cruiser was. Position yourself as the sort of relief bringing authority figure people expect to see at an accident... only to turn out to be a big evil robot. Some decepticons get a kick out of that sort of moral crushing moment.

"Here comes the fire department! We're save--OH **** ITS ONE OF THEM! WE'RE DOOMED!"

Ehehe. Thinking like that makes me want one just for an evil counterpart to Inferno and Red Alert....

I don't think he can. I think they'll always be visible. Whoever chooses colours for TFs is a moron.

I'd like to say it may be still early enough in the stage that the connectors may not be painted in their regular color just yet, but I know that's false. Other than the connectors I think the paint looks real nice, but yeah, such a visible part shouldn't be that color. But, there's the chance that that blue goes with the paint scheme of the gestalt mode, but again, that's probably false as well.
