Well, technically Oil Pan and Tuner Skids are the two that we have never seen before. Really liking Oil Pan. As for the rest,

I'm pumped for these new figures. I especially like that that made Dark Mount a deluxe. I thought for certain he would be a voyager.

Typo: "Constructicons" should be "Destructicons".

So are they going to make an original mode of Elita-1 in the future???

Or is this it??

Can all 3 finally combine as one big robot with 2 Chromia modes and 1 Arcee??

Definately love the new Sideswipe and Optimus! But when I get Sideswipe, Im gonna paint him all gray. I know he was red in G1, but that just doesnt work well for the movie Sideswipe to have red flames.

I think this is it. Took them long enough to even consider making a repaint. Would've been better if they at least mirrored the Chromia mold though, but whatever, now the Arcee team is complete :p

I wouldn't be so sure. It's true the bikes can connect with the folding out puzzle-like pieces, but what bothers me is the name Flareup, which came before Elita-1. What is up with that? Replaced name, name of a new bike, name of the combined form?

Horribly small pictures

I'm liking Oil Pan's colourscheme. I think he's the only one we haven't seen yet.

Love them all. I can't wait for Staxus and Mindset (Hailstorm) and the Wave 2 PCC figures most. Also Breacher looks great! I can't wait to pair him up with Seaspray and have both of them duke it out with Mindwipe and SkyStalker.

The power cores are an easy pass and the repaints too. The rest, WILL GET!

Hailstorm and "DarkMount" look amazing, DarkMount may even look movie enough for me to buy him! then I could have some Cybertronian Empire/Movie future story or something.
I don't even care about HailStorm's out of scale'd ness, he is too cool to pass up(and how can they say he's a MindSet reference? NO resemblance...).
Scout Insecticon's also on my to-get list, it looks quite awesome indeed....
Elita-1....I'd rather just repaint the in-scale HA Bike into her...not that I can paint(yet)...
By the way...Destructicons? They stole my Combiner team name....

You kiddin'? This ain't the first time they've used ther term "Destructicon".

Yeah but that wasn't a Combiner name, so I uh...used it anyways...
Plus it seemed more random as it was random Decepticons....

A concept design for the movie character of Flareup appeared here a while back when a name was finally given to the third female bike-bot. She was purple and her robot form was different from Arcee and Chromia, making me think that she would eventually be released as a figure. Unfortunately, there's not been a posting here (that I'm aware of) of the concept art for a Flareup action figure that would confirm the possibility of the action figure to be created and released.

But I seem to remember a while back when questions were presented to Hasbro concerning the third female bike-bot and someone asked if she would be released and whether the three bikes would combine... if I remember correctly, the answer was yes, she would be released and it was hinted at that if the three combine, instructions would be with third one to aid with combining. Of course, I could be remembering incorrectly and remembering only what I want to remember.
