Scattershot is pretty suspect too.

Strafe's alt mode looks like the G1 toy design, no issue with it here. Not as sleek as the MT one, but that's also far and away the best limb bot MT has ever done imo so hard to compete.

Scattershot looks fantastic in all four modes. Potentially some coloring issues but it's also not final, and the steps taken so far as compared to the original shots shown have all been big improvements.

Just like WB-01 , WB-03 also comes with a little friend to play with

A Legends sized Grimlock in kit form?

Neat. I'll likely buy this even if nothing else. I just hope they've done a better job on him than poor Shockwave...

Strafe is being delivered today. Very excited to have this one done. Here's to being one step closer to being done with expensive combiners!

May take some nice pictures of this at some point, but here's some lazy cell phone camera shots of the whole crew. I really, really like this set and I'm glad I was patient and opted for this version.

Meh, I don't like him. I like bits of him (Afterburner especially) but the rest of him is just a bit iffy, and the combined mode looks weirdly...bloated?

Quantron for me. Or failing that, the UW release (if Takara makes him).

It's definitely got that TFC-esque chunky, blocky feel to it. That's an aesthetic that's fallen out of favor over recent years, but I think it fits the original feel of the "Classics" style line very well. Not for everyone though, and that's ok.
