I'm surprised by how nice this looks, not used to detailed RC toys.

Hm yeah it's cute. Might buy the lil fellow when in a regular toy form. If he gets a seperate toy or is included as a tiny bonus figure with another larger TF character?

Wait until the retail version is shown before getting too excited.
The symmetric wheels are also a little strange. The arm almost looks like he stole it from someone else, especially with that huge gun on it.

Feeble attempt at a R2 or BB8 style robot thing.
And yeah what's up with that massively ripped arm?

Are you saying that Hasbro may dramatically change the design before releasing it? Usually that is expected from the figures that actually transform.

Squeeks is perhaps the most detailed and intricate design the Bayverse people have come up with yet....

Just as RID Fixit does - it may make for a fun little Legion class toy.
I didn't know the Nazi's hired Dwarves as Flamthrower troops in world war II I missed that Videogame level I guess - not that I'd put Midget Flame Thrower troopers past Medal Of Honor when it has GSD's driving Motorcycle and sidecars.

Well, judging from this:
I'd say I was right, it looks pretty bad compared to the CG. The blue is all washed out and the rust effect looks like brown spray paint. Coupled with the other weirdness from the RC design and this thing is kinda...

Courtesy of the Facebook page Planet Iacon, we have the first - leaked - images of another toy from Transformers: The Last Knight! It's a deluxe, it's a Decepticon, it's a a returning character: check out below tiny grainy photos of the new version of Barricade. Impressed? Underwhelmed? Curious? Let us know what you think in the Energon Pub!

*sniff* I never thought I'd live to see the day that we got a good-looking Barricade figure... It's beautiful.

Looks like it suffers from the same problems AoE had, no paint, backpacks that ruin the figure, overly simplistic, cheap looking, easy pass.

That's some great sculpting, but if I get it I'll probably hold out of the better looking Japanese version. Then again, if the MP ends up being this version then I'll just pass on it entirely.
