This latest wallpaper really isn't that flattering for the Kight Morpher... It puts a little too much emphasis on the sholders. But it's of no concern seeing as how good the gallery already made it look. Still, I love the way he's reloading the six-shooter / Gatling gun: the cylinder molding on the gun is a detail I hadn't even realized was there before!
Lucky you! And yes, you are right: in my earlier post regarding the comparison with a lighter, I mentioned him looking as big as a Deluxe, but when I thought about the size copmparison later, I also realized I should have said Voyager or even an Ultra. Even more comparison shots would be nice though! Can't wait for the Seibertron review...

Add the trailer, and you do have an Ultra class figure. I was lucky and got to see a prototype in person two months ago. Also had classics voyager prime with me at the time, so I did the height comparison.

Optimus Prime only appears in two panels in issue 1. He his alt mode looks like a Brachiosaurus. The only image in train mode is this image:
As you can see the toy is extremely accurate to that picture. He never speaks. The only Autobots to feature are Bumblebee, Prowl, Ratchet and Ironhide. A couple of other Autobots are in the background. Prowl, Ratchet and Ironhide turn into box cars so there is an opportunity for more in this line. The Decepticons look much better in that comic though. I would kill for a Megatron, Shockwave or Starscream toy.

Funny thing about this guy, I want it. I have it ordered. I think it looks great. I thought everything but the first couple pages of the comic were crap. Just my opinion. Like I said, funny.

One of these days I need to read the "Hearts of Steel" comic series, but there was no way I was going to pass up on this. I'd love to see more characters. Still not sure where in my collection he's going, but he's been on my pre-order for a while now... Looking forward to his arrival.

Your opinion is very absolutely correct.
HoS was garbage.
The toy however...is PiMp.

Yeah, HoS was pretty bad...so much so that when I lent the TPB to a friend and he returned it damaged, I didn't mind so much. A lot of wasted potential with that one.

Completely agree the comic was rubbish. On the other hand, the designs for the transformers was absolutely amazing. Some more toys to back up Optimus Prime. Maybe Bumblebee:
Shockwave:
or Starscream:

Why do people always capitalize the k? Oh well...
Anyways, I meant I want to see the Insectitrain as a figure. I have the art saved

But...I thought for sure IDW did a color concept art for him, and there were no red wheels.

Wow. I wish I ordered one when it was cheaper. I hop they make toys out of all the HoS characters.

I don't think the price has changed... Not sure how RD got his, but I don't think it's even seen a general release yet.

yeah, the transformation is rather simple. Abt the same as g1 prime. But with more articulation and playability.
Will put down my thought soon

Bummer...that's a bit of a hard pill to swallow at $85 + shipping considering what I look for in a TF. Why does it have to look so damn cool? I'm conflicted...

Well, is pretty comic accurate.... And from the IDW design, transformation arent that complicated.
And i think Henkei/Classic prime transformation is simple as well.....
