Red x'd, please to be fixink!

Wasn't there a rumor that Ironhide would be the next HA fig? I'd love an IH/Lennox set.

Looks really nice. I think this while be the most effective line outside the Regular Deluxe/Voyager/Leader assortment.

That is a must have for me.

It looks kinda playskooly to me, chunky and lacking in articulation. And is that Epps with him?

I'm really starting to like this Human alliance line..
so far both figures look really cool.

Thanks for the post Kique. It's been front paged.

Sideswipe looks like he put on a little weight. He looks cool but not as cool as Human Alliance Bumblebee. I think I might stick to deluxe sideswipe for now.

Looks cool, but the coloring is kinda drab... think I'll wait for Human Alliance 'Sunstreaker,' 'Red Alert,' or maybe Sideswipe in red ;-)

in all honesty it does not look as good as the human alliance bumblebee, but still looks great and i'll be happy to add yet another sideswipe to my collection!

Can't believe nobody mentioned the G1 homage shoulder cannon.

You're right, it looks pretty cool for me, but I'll have to wait until I see a gallery of both the HA and the deluxe figure to make a decition, unfortunatley Transformers are really expensive down here in Costa Rica, can afford to have all of them :-(

I think I like the deluxe version better...

Something looks wrong with the legs.

Peace be upon all,
I really like the scale, flexibility and interactivity that this line adds. They have the most appeal to me so far in the TF2 line-up. It'd be nice to get a bad guy in the mix though :twisted:

Bot-mode looks rather... chubby. I actually prefer the scissor-blade mechanism, sleeker look and not-silver-as-rest-of-body (and gimmicked) shin guard on the deluxe-class version, I'll wait to see more features before I decide to whether or not to pick him up, but still; yeesh, all my pre-viewing-image expectations sank so ridiculously fast.

Sure there will.

Alice! XD

Seriously if they made that would it be kinda weird?

I can't see the pic at work. Can someone email it to me? Thanks

awesome looking! a bit bulky with his backpack though.

News Credits: 4 · by **typh0id** » Thu May 14, 2009 10:47 am

Not terrible but yeah, I like Bumblebee better...I will likely just get the Deluxe of Sideswipe...

Looks big.

Not really, I thought about it myself; "Alice" can come with a pretender function (tiny robot hides inside human figure that can be pulled out), and can be paired with Barricade, Sideways or Soundwave, that is if he follows the concept art of transforming into a black chevy.

This image makes me think that the HA line is going to be a tf2 version of the Kiss Players.

It's the legs.

Hope I'm wrong.

Interesting, very interesting. I was somewhat impressed by the Human Alliance Bumblebee figure, albeit not enough to buy it since I already have a movieverse BB. Sideswipe is interesting as well, I will have to wait for more pictures to decide if I will go with this one or the Deluxe. So far he's looking a bit chunky, but as we know, first pics usually don't show figures at their best.

It'll be interesting to see how this line develops.

Agreed. They're out of proportion with the more "beefed up" upper torso.
Not long enough, not built up enough. While I like how the upper half looks in terms of detail and an enhanced "robotic feel" the same effect also takes away from the lithe, nimble-ness and overall bad-ass martial artist look that the deluxe toy has. This is almost like Chris Farley and Jet Li in a head-on collision only with less gut.

I'm with you, the deluxe version is better. Although the alt. mode still looks seriously sweet. Not enough to make me shell out the extra dough, but it comes close.
