Official Images of Transformers Siege Prowl, Sixgun and Pteraxadon

I was going to write off that Prowl for the basic robot form, but wow is that car striking.

⠀

So, it turns out Sixgun is not only not a retool of Cog but his altmode is some spaceship/chopper hybrid and not a ground vehicle like the other two weaponizers. Hot damn I'm glad I was proven wrong on all count for this guy.

Yeah, I feel the same. I knew he'd have Cybertronian glyphs on him instead of English, like Red Alert (I hope Toyhax/Reprolabels makes some stickers), but I'm not happy with a few of the paint apps. Why did they make his crotch triangle yellow? It's always been red. They use red for the head crest, so why not use some down there? There's enough superfluous yellow elsewhere on the figure, like those arm stripes (that don't need to be there) and the on the sides of the pelvis (which should be gray). I also don't like how the Autobot tampograph is off center on the hood either. It could have been centered just fine, even if it had to be a bit smaller. Finally, are his thighs and abdomen just a very dark gunmetal gray? I can't be certain, as the monitor I'm using right now doesn't have the greatest color contrast, but it looks to be the same black as his paint apps, which is also not accurate. Otherwise, the sculpt is great. It's a shame, though, since Sideswipe and Red Alert came out pretty much as perfect as I could hope with their paint apps. Maybe future Bluestreak and Smokescreen repaints (if they happen) will have better, more accurate detailing.

Sixgun looks great, Prowl is nice, and Pteraxadon isn't half bad.

Prowls a definite no for me, could be interesting to see it repainted as something else. Sixgun on the other hand is a definite buy. Glad this line Is saving me some money for the most part though its going to be hard to resist being a completionist.

Siege as a whole doesn't look too Cybertronian either. I like it though, it's a nice futuristic concept.

Not seeing the futuristic part of it sorry.

No, it more looks like a futuristic car, like Siege Sideswipe and Hound. I'm fine with that, honestly. It makes him work all the better as a replacement for Universe/Henkei Prowl. Interestingly, it looks like his wheels are clear plastic, like the windows. I wish they had gone for a smokier gray color for the clear plastic, though. It would have helped the lower legs look a little more interesting and the wheels pass a little more as rubber "Earth" tires. After getting a chance to look at the official renders, it does seem like Prowls got dark gray thighs to contrast with his black parts, which is a relief. I hope the abdomen gets the same treatment, but it's still so hard to tell. We need good in-hand pics already! Also of note, Prowl seems to have very minimal "battle damage" at all. It appears to be entirely relegated to some paint scratching on the black paint of his car hood. That will, of course, make it a lot harder to potentially remove those paint apps, as they are right on top of a different coat of paint that you'd want to retain. At least he doesn't look like he's coming down with a case of cosmic rust like Megatron with his dirty mud "splotches."

Anyone else notice those square holes on either side of Prowl's head? Those might be for missiles that might come with a redeco or just used for weaponizers.
