Well, that's kinda awesome. Big Convoy is one my favorite visually striking characters and toys. I'm interested.

Lio Convoy looks like he transforms into Liger 0. If Big Convoy looks vaguely Elephanderish in altmode, they get all of my money. Zoid/TF crossover needs to happen.

From the looks of the drawings, somewhat like G1 Grimlock, Kickback or Razorclaw, with the alt-modes being robotic versions of a lion and a mammoth, respectively.

I can deal with that now. I don't know if my wallet can, though. It's an adventurous choice for PE, but if they turn out half as well as not-Reflector they should be pretty awesome.

[i]ok now tell me who dose not want these and maybe a optimus primal not from botcon one that goes with these maybe a Stasis pod with a protoform and who would not want to see a fortress maximus that comes with master sword that is pulled from console

Welcome to Seibertron but...what? I'd be much more willing to try comprehending that if it was punctuated.

Cool, Im interested. But, Whats the size going to be? Hopefully not below a deluxe size. That was why I had to pass on the Scouting Force

Like every other 3rd party item these days, call me when you have a pre-order or prototype.

They may do something along these lines for Big Convoy:

And it looks like they are using this for Lio Convoy:

Looks pretty awesome, but whatever happened to the Perfect Effect Not-Wheelie that was supposed to come out?

I'm still wanting some of this!!

Knowing PE they'll be $100 each and be the size of D batteries but come with a mountain of pistols and knives.

Not interested. Do Soundwave and finish making the cassettes instead.

Please turn into something that isn't a fusion of vehicle and beast. I'm desperate for a new Prime mold.

I think we'll get "robot lion" for Lio and a giant tank-thing for Big.

Oh, HELL yes! I love these guys! :grin:

Big Convoy in particular looks really badass, his head's like an awesome mix of Star Convoy and Galaxy Convoy!

oh hell yes! that Cybertronian Lio is one of my favourite designs in years. Almost certainly getting that. I hope they make Magmatron in his Cybertronian form as well.

They could almost do it as a "truck" with a mechanical lion head on the front, as for Big Convoy he looks very cool and could be my prayers for a toy that resembles nova prime

I REALLY hope Lio Convoy is just a robot lion.

Zoids called... they want their.. you know what.. forget it..

TBH I am game for both these. :-?

Here's to hoping they turn out in a good look & quality.
(If Leo Prime is as epic as Donnie's drawing is... I'd have to get 2, price willing.)

I think Perfect Effect is my new favourite 3rd party company.

Silly Perfect Effect, this is what Cybertronian Lio Convoy looks like.

Well, I guess he can still, kinda transform into Liger Zero.

I think Big Convoy turns into a walker with a gun like Cybertron Scrapmetal.

Oh god yes, ever since I saw the design for Big Convoy in the comic I wanted a toy off of him.
That tank he turns into is so f**king cool.

This would be so sweet. As another poster mentioned, I hope they also do Magmatron. Ever since I saw his Cybertronian bot mode in the comics, I've been wanting one. I heard someone did a custom of it long ago, but the pics aren't up any more and I've never seen it so I don't know how it turned out but the bot separated into a submarine, a plane and a tank (which makes sense given the 3 individual beast modes he's composed of).

The paws, the Mane vents. Hell, he's even got a pair of zoidcaps visible on his shoulders. Lio Convoy will transform into a not-Liger 0, I have no question about that.

I agree with the comments about still wanting Wheelie. I'd like the PE Soundwave but I can do without.

With that said I am so stoked for these, especially Big Convoy!

I have absolutly zero need for either of these figures. That said, they could potentially be so frikkin' awesome that I may have to just get them anyway.

I have just four more words for Perfect Effect;

Sound. Wave. Chop. Chop.
