Bludgeon is just a retool of Megatronus
& Stealth Force Bee, Sideswipe & Strongarm......why? why use this gimmick again that was already used before with the Bayformer toyline(& i don't think that it was well received back then either).

Agreed there. At least the combined robot mode is pretty cool
That would be the one I get out of all of the combiner force guys, he looks really good. Reminds me of Star Sabre.
In the video when the jet legs are combined with the prime torso I got an Armada Jet Prime vibe.
Wondering if there's a boj to combine all 6 ala Landcross.....

It's very likely we won't be seeing warrior molds of either of these guys. Sorry psj, it's based on popularity with kids and Autobots always win in that arena, or at least the executives and designers think so.
I gotta say, I'm really loving Stormshot. I don't know why, but I really want him.

And I'm psyched about the eventual Bludgeon figure from Blastwave!

UPDATED with images for the second version of Bumblebee and Strongarm, Optimus Prime, plus new character Skysledge, Stormhammer and a sample of combinations!

I can't believe Ironhide is a mini-con

Hasbro's been all over that guy recently. It's not a bad thing, but it is mighty confusing.

Same. I don't need more renders of Combiner Force to know they're terrible, gimme Stormshot!

I am not sold on stormshot though. While Starscream had a nice levelof complexity to his transformation, this guy seems very basic, reminding me almost of a combiner wars jet.

Maybe... but he still looks cool.

Robot mode looks good, I wont deny it.
And to be frank, jet mode looks pretty good. I like the reference to real life jets.

I just dont like how unoriginal that transformation is and that plays a big factor for me.

But I expect what you see is all there is going to be - and they will vanish like the Minicon compatible scout sized ones.
Oh and the seem to have renamed One-steps I notice.
But regardless what they call them did we really need 3 Bumblebee & 3 Optimus One Step Moulds ?
I like all the new Autobot Jets - if they'd not got so greedy and actually just made Bludgeon I'd have been interested - but the chances of RID being around long enough to actually release a Bludgeon toy seems slim - perhaps Takara might do it though. - And would it have offended some Toy god of something to have at least pre-paint it as Banzai-tron instead of a very inappropriate Autobot.
