And once we have Devastator to for Bumblebee to be the same size as...YES, wave 3 totally needs ReAction Unicron! And Spike.

I wont even be a little bit surprised if/when that happens. To their credit Bumblebee is a little smaller than everyone else, as I'm sure Rumble will be as well.

I'd be more down for this is they had elbow and knee articulation. I know they have standard reaction articulation, but still.

Only 5 points of articulation
They remind me of those ones I saw at Wal-Mart
That look real cheap with less articulation
I thought these would have the cell shaded look
And have the ability for dynamic poses
I am very disappointed with these

The ReAction logo is styled after Kenner's... Huh, neat.

Just like Action Masters, but with less articulation and detail.

Nope.

Maybe a homage to the Action Masters?

Indeed.

Will get an Optimus to add to my horde of Prime's - Mostly because I can't find my original Action Master.

But other than that, I don't see the appeal, especially at the price point that they are selling at. I can get a nice transforming KO for that money.

Thanks to tee bizz on Youtube, we have our first in hands look at Super7's ReAction Transformers! For those not aware, ReAction is Super7's line of retro-style action figures, usually with five points of articulation at 3.75" scale. Think of them like Action Masters, but with less articulation. Each figure comes with a weapon accessory (including Starscream who comes with a gun Megatron) except for Megatron who's canon is certainly large enough. The review covers Megatron, Starscream and Jazz.

The entire first wave consists of Optimus Prime, Jazz, Bumblebee, Megatron, Starscream, and Soundwave. Next will be an even more ambitious set for February made up of Alpha Trion, Skyfire, Mirage, Grimlock, Shockwave, Rumble, Shrapnel, and Devastator. The suggested price is $15 though most retailers seem to be more comfortable $18.

What do you think? Do Transformers need to transform or are you all in for the cartoon accuracy? Or are you just here for the retro vibes? Sound off in the comments below and let us know what you think!

I wish Megatron had a swivel to allow him to fire his Fusion Cannon
