That's the kind of Arcee design we should have for Generations. Kibble that is necessary to the design and doesn't make her a shellformer.

Man those designs look great!
I like how they kept the motorcycle mofit with Arcee!

I submitted days ago a video review of Soundwave and earlier today a vid review of Ratchet and neither have been posted. Don't know why,
Here's link for Ratchet https://youtu.be/ASdVQ7gPDdE
Here's link for Soundwave https://youtu.be/BwVrUJ1trLU and this one too if you want to see comparison to G1 Soundwave https://youtu.be/QYf9Fa5PTj8

I wish they had never shown us what Soundwave's alt mode was supposed to look like, makes the figure look 10x worse.

That Alt Mode of Soundwave is giving me some serious Star Wars Snow Speeder Vibes.

Something revealed in the Q&A was that ILM never created alternate modes for the Cybertronian-bodied Bumblebee movie characters who didn't transform onscreen in the movie, so Hasbro had to create these altmodes for them by themselves.

Sadly ratchets wheels are a let down compared to the concept art but he might look good with some oversized wheels.
Getting techno bots feel from arcee and she is potential buy for me.
Wheeljack alt mode is another pass and the bot mode still doesn't have his chest contours.
Can't say I like the heads on most of these tho.

https://youtu.be/BwVrUJ1trLU?t=728 looking at this video... and I don't know if anyone has the official instructions in hand yet... but if that 'canopy' for the vehicle mode can be pulled up and forward over the middle section... it'd be a lot closer to the concept material... as it is... I really don't know why they chose to transform the back the way they did considering what they were supposed to be shooting for... oh well....

Hi, it's because there's been an editorial change regarding how we at Seibertron deal with leaked figure reviews. As a compromise so we could still bring these figures to the attention of the fans, while also listening to concerns from some fans about how these toys came into the hands of these reviewers. To this end we won't be posting the link to the review anymore, and instead provide screengrabs.
For those that want the to watch the reviews, regardless of how toys were obtained then you certainly won't need our help in finding them (indeed PrimeVsPrime posts his own in the Transformers review section of these very forums).
Please continue to send the reviews into the site though, just be aware that we won't be newing the review as is anymore.

Ratchet and Brawn continue to look outstanding. Love that Brawn's drill is a 5mm accessory, I foresee fun times ahead! And Arcee, holy slag she looks great! Probably the best Arcee figure to date; the robot mode is glorious (actually looks like a feminine robot yet has a modest, neat and good looking backpack) and the vehicle mode is awesome. Gives me TRON vibes actually. I'll absolutely be picking those three up if I can.

Ok, if we are to be stuck getting G1/G1-like figures for all eternity (which seems likely anymore because, you know, imagination is kind of rare at Hasbro), THIS is what I want. That Ratchet is amazing, and Arcee is just sick. Brawn LOOKS like a Brawn- meaning he's not this little tiny thing...he's, well, brawny! Big! Bold-looking, physically imposing. I can't wait for these!

I have to admit, I kind of agree, I wouldn't mind half as much that we keep getting G1 season 1 characters over and over again, if they applied some creative licensing to their designs

I'm really exited for these BB movie figures.
For me, THESE are what the Siege designs should have been. True CYBERTRONIAN modes, no "Earth modes with gribbles" nonsense.

As for Brawn I really like his Spartan helmet.

I see that point, but at the same time I would really like updates on Robots in Disguise and the Unicron trilogy soon. Why doesn't Hasbro realize what a cash cow that would be for them?Hellscream9999 wrote:First-Aid wrote:Ok, if we are to be stuck getting G1/G1-like figures for all eternity (which seems likely anymore because, you know, imagination is kind of rare at Hasbro), THIS is what I want.

Oh, I agree, I don't want G1 season 1 every year, I just mean that if we are stuck with it, this is how I'd prefer them handle it. I really need UT updates in my life

Updating Cybertron is going to be a nightmare for the designers, because of the Cyber Key gimmicks. Choosing what to keep, what to drop, and what to homage will be a very daunting task when it happens.

I'm honestly of the opinion that most of the original Cybertron molds were as good as, if not better than, today's figures, and would be perfectly content with simple reissues of those molds rather than updates, however unlikely that is to happen.Rtron wrote:Updating Cybertron is going to be a nightmare for the designers, because of the Cyber Key gimmicks.
