What's wrong with Hotrod's size? The 86 guys were all on the large side.

He's a Deluxe-sized Voyager like Optimus Primal (though, Primal is more of an in-between since he's the same size as Ironhide, who is already tall for a Deluxe).

He comes with a lot of accessories. Size is important, but not the end all be all. I'll be just fine with my 30.00 Hot Rod.

I'm pretty sure it's the same few people complaining about the same thing in both threads

Poor old punch/counterpunch never got called a tall deluxe but people like mentioning the size of their Iron...hide.

Twintwist/Topspin even Kup got retconned as tall deluxes but not poor ol' Punch it's like the shrinking over time chocolate bars.

I heard just as much annoyance with Hot Rod.

Tall Deluxe size, but without the large gaps and hollow spots. This is the third WFC line, we should be used to classes no longer being based on height.

Emerje

I will never be used to that.

Also, I've always been told size doesn't matter.

Seibertron got the upcoming Transformers Kingdom figures and while we have some galleries coming up, we wanted to give you certain comparisons in the meantime. Here we see that Cyclonus is your standard voyager height and he is compared to previous Cyclonus toys as well as previous sweeps. We also have Optimus Primal with many previous renditions. Let us know what you think and stay tuned for more to come!

Kewllllll

Well, that's a surpise

I thought for sure, Huffer would be a mini Prime repaint. I like the looks of him there in low res. Will there be a pipes? Probably a selects release.

According to Appolux there should be a mainline release of Pipes that looks just as accurate, but comes with two little fusion cannon like weapons

Is that dinobot I see?

Oh no thats airrazor nvm

Awesome. Thanks for the info.

Airazor looks pretty great (although I don't see the missiles Apollux mentioned, accessories are hard to track in this packaging), Ractonite's full body looks hilariously stupid and I love it, and while I have zero interest in Huffer, that should make a nice Pipes, especially with what Apollux said.

EDIT: Also, this is the EXACT same set of Deluxes as that alleged wave breakdown "leak" from 4chan, and since the only one saying it was fake was Pixelmaster, who has since soft-confirmed a bunch of the Selects in said leak (and who's credibility some people are doubting now when it comes to exact details), I feel like that leak might be right after all.

Huffer! Yes! Now he and Rattrap can complain together for eternity.

Looking at Airrazor's box, she has the same kibble hiding technique as Arcee. There's a hole cut into the box that she slips into. Whether or not this means she has a big backpack, I don't know.

If she does have kibble then it must be the wings. IMO.

I'm still probably going to get her, but I'd still like to see more images of her first.

I think all of the boxes have that space, it gives the cardboard some separation from the back of the packaging to compensate the lack of a plastic tray. But yeah, also useful to keep accessories and backpacks. If it's hiding anything in the case of Airazor, it's probably her wings.

I also thought she was Dinobot at first glance! What's up with that? Glad she isn't, though, would've been seriously lacking in blue.

Primal is looking just... well, you know the joke, I'm not making it again. He's great.

I'll be getting all of these minus the Arcee.

Glad I got the MP Primal it wins out over the Kingdom Primal though at least its a cheaper option for people.

Airrazor looks good but hard to tell, it might have cheetor like issues.

The fossiliser looks like it ate a legends figure or a duplo block. Looking forward to better images. Seems kinda reminiscent of Killpunch/guildart and the cybertron rhino guy with his bulk and if he has a hidden weapon/part for one of the other bots.

Huffer looks good and deluxe sized rather than cliffjumper. I'll still be keeping my wrecker wannabe botcon ikkle Huffer to hang with the mini bots but will likely pick up this Huffer too.

I gotta say I've never cared much for Huffer but his figure looks well done so far! Nice paint job

And im excited to see better images of airrazor, a figure that actually looks like the character for once haha

I wouldn't be so sure of huffers size, he's got more of a cardboard base and the picture has been digitally stitched together, I think he's like Cliffjumper.

Big day for Transformers Kingdom news. We have our first look at the second wave of deluxe figures. That includes Airazor, Huffer, Ractonite (the fossilizer we previously saw) and a repackages Earthrise Arcee.

It is important to note that you rate not seeing the complete figures when it comes to Airazor and Arcee since the cardboard is hiding their kibble and people who have seen the Airrazor figure did comment how the large falcon wings are present in robot mode, making a large backpack.

Also, Pipes is said to be coming as a mainline figure in a later wave.
