Though now it's pretty definite that his weapon is meant to fit over his noggin.

I guess he looks OK. It's impossible for me not to compare him to RotF Lockdown, and as unfair as that is AoE Lockdown just doesn't seem impressive in comparison.
Is that clear plastic being used in his joints? That doesn't seem wise...
Also, I wonder how well he can balance with the gun plugged onto his head. His feet are really tiny.

Him and Optimus can have a great exchange:
O - "Give me your face!"
L - "Sure." *hands gun*
O - "No, your actual face!"
L - "I just did."
O - "That's a gun."
L - "Transformers, changing things into things.. that's my face."
O - "..."
L - *smiles up from OP's hands*

No comparison, really. RotF Lockdown is amazing.

To start off, here are the images of the One Step Changers giftset, comprised of Lockdown, Drift, Slug, Grimlock, with Silver Knight Optimus Prime being included as an exclusive bonus.
Next up on the agenda is the Titan Bumblebee figure, which is based on his 2014 Camaro design and comes equipped with a plain black weapon.
Also revealed are Hero Masher figures of Soundwave and Slag Slug, who takes after Grimlock and is based on his dinosaur alternate form.
And to wrap things up, we have some official images of package variants of Power Battlers Optimus Prime.

According to other sources, Lockdown will be with the 2014 Camaro Bumblebee and "Hot Shot", who is speculated as being Shane's rally car.

Shockwave7--I may be reading your context wrong, and if that's so, my apologies. But this comment reads in such a way that there is a definite undertone of racism, and we really don't want to get down that road. So let's keep the topic of Lockdown's appearance to just that, and avoid speculations that are racially offensive in tone.

I am being completely honest and think that UT and Prime had some good designs while thinking prime should had a season 4 unless you count the 2015 series as season 4

Yeah I'll be honest, I don't see minstrel show, I actually see Transformer vladimir putin, the Sagging mammaries formed from carparts, the "Hairline" formed by the the helmet pulled back, the no nonsense characterization, i'm just making things up for the fun of it now

This. A majority of Age of Extinction (nay, a majority of decisions the new team's making, i.e oddly colored Sunstorm) toys in a nutshell.

No it don't. Far from it. The dinobots alone are amazing. The cars are very great too! There's lots of paints aps, the figures dont feel as cheap as the early Generations FOC deluxes, and they even are getting bigger!
I just don't understand what the hell you guys are whining about. The fawk do you want? Tiny MPs for 9$?!
Good grief.

Let's be fair, the Hero Mashers don't have to transform, so they can basically look however they dang well please. Decent sculpts, I guess, but not my thing. I might pick up the Bulkhead one, but other than that, nah.
Lockdown seems... Adequate, I guess? There' nothing there that really seems any worse than the average movie toy, but at the same time, there's nothing that really captures my interest, either. It's a fairly standard moviebot design.
I do kinda like the looks of that one-step Slug. I'll probably go for it once it's released on its own, but I'm not particularly interested in any of the others in that set (except Grimlock, who I have already).
Power Battler Optimus has four arms. Weird.
...And does ANYONE actually want those Titan Hero/Titan Guardian figures? I mean, if they're going to be making non-transforming Transformers toys, they can at least put some effort into it. The Robot Replicas figures from the first two movie toylines are a case in point, as is the Power Bots Bumblebee from the Animated toyline.

Looks good. Has gun face. He's a Lambo. And I can probably get him for $10. I'm happy.

Well some people like it more detailed and complex and some easy and cheap! I don't know which cars you're referring as "great" with lots of paint apps.I haven't seen those anywhere! And all recently released AoE toys are very cheap looking compare to the first two movie figures.Starting with scout all the way to leader class!
Just my opinion!

I don't understand folks who make blanket statements like "these AOE toys look cheap and don't even compare to the first Movie Trilogy" - that's willfully ignoring a lot of missteps throughout the 7 years of movie toys we've gotten. DOTM was as bad as ROTF/HFTD was great. For every Battle Blade Bumblebee, you're going to have a handful of Rampages.
Given Hasbro's goal of simplifying the toys to make parents & kids less frustrated, and what we thought that would mean for us, I have to give Hasbro a lot of credit for not leaving collectors in the dust. So far, the dinobots have exceeded my expectations, the voyagers have generally bene very, very well done, and the Leaders to be, though smaller, very nice overall.
None of the figures are perfect by any means, but I am very excited for Deluxe & Voyager Drift, and Lockdown, too. I just hope I'm as impressed with the movie, but that might be a longer shot.

The voice of reason!
I'm just tired of the one who scream FIRE when they smell toasts baking.

This. I'd also really like some proper new Cyberverses but the AoE line is trying something new with all those instant-change lines. Whatcha gonna do...
So far, the only thing I truly hate are those "dollar store" action figures that are mainly unpainted, unposable bricks. WHO BUY THAT?! Those horrible hunk of plastics sell for a premium too!

They don't seem to like making expensive Decepticon toys any more, other than in the Masterpiece and Platinum lines. The only Decepticon larger than a Voyager in the Dark of the Moon line was Human Alliance Soundwave, and that saw a somewhat limited release (I know it was never released stateside, but I'm not sure what other countries were intended to get him but wound up not getting him). Likewise, the entirety of the Transformers Prime toyline had not a single Decepticon larger than a Voyager (unless you count Predaking, but he's a Predacon so I count him separate). Not to rain on your parade, but I highly doubt a Leader class Lockdown is forthcoming.

It's disappointing how little the villains of the movies are regarded, in both the films and in the toylines. The Big Four went down like nothing in the last movie, especially Megatron who was barely in it. They gave Skids, Mudflap and Jolt DOTM toy updates, but Soundwave got NOTHING domestically.
And now, Stinger is going to be a repaint, Galvatron is only a voyager, and Lockdown (the advertised villain) is a deluxe going up against 2 Leader heroes and an army of Dinobots. I'm worried we're going to get another Shockwave; all hype with minimal activity, screentime, or payoff.

Overquoting to say YEAH, WHERE THE HELL ARE MY TOYS?! So far, only Lockdown and Galvatron are announced. That's fwaking it.
By the way, for a voyager carformer, or , they should bring back the Human Alliance back. This is the only way this could work. As for now, the HA line is pretty much gone and show no signs of coming back.
HASBRO, Y U HAET SO MUCH?
Seriously.

He's not brown on the figure, either. All that plastic is the same color. The picture of car mode is the best representation of the color, but the robot mode picture shows that the chest and other bot parts are made of the same plastic color as the visible car kibble.
