It would be really cool if Fracture's mini bot could ride Fracture in hover bike mode.

so this is the new version of the FOC Data Disc dudes? Technically same universe family and all.
One thing I do like is that the accessory sprue is the shape of the faction symbols. That was a cool idea.

I'm liking those little guys. When they are pegged on the sprue, it looks as if there are coursing with energy during transformation.

Can't help but notice that other fan sites drop those pics from their news threads.

They.. they looked at me. They demanded to be seen.
They will it so. I comply. We all comply.

I was also looking forward to him. Hopefully Hasbro or takara will correct this in later releases. I wont buy him till he is on deep discount simply to not be disappointed in my purchase. The transformation looks great though!

Still can't tell if these are Deluxe or Voyager class robot height toys?
If Fracture is a Voyager class robot, Then i'll buy it. Like the design and colors. Hover bike is very original.
Don't like the Drift design or colors. regardless of size i'm not interested. Robot doesn't seem too articulated. Robot Sculpt and colors remind me of a Power Rangers Zord toy.
The minicons do look interesting in sculpt and gimmick but not very articulated.

Yeah, the minicons definitely look better than the actual deployers themselves. I hope I can get all the minicons individually and not have to buy the bigger two packs to complete the mystery figure you can make with all the clear plastic accessories.
Also, I dont think these are deluxes or voyagers, these are more akin to the megas of the beast war era (like Inferno and Polarclaw).
Also, stop bashing that kid, he's cute and not that creepy (it's the older kids that creep me out). Kudos to him landing this modelling gig and being paid more than any of us for an hour of his time (when he gets work, of course).
And lastly, while sideswipe may not be great, there is a whole bunch of paint and clear plastic usage, reminding me of the previous RID (2001) figures (in a good way). Someone said that Takara's Groove couldnt have been made by Hasbro due to using clear plastic in the deluxe class. Well, with Sideswipe here, I don't think that specific part of the argument holds water anymore.

The deployers look good but I'm disappointed that Drift and Fracture don't come with weapons for themselves.

These seem smaller than I remember seeing at Toy Fair. Actually kind of relieved, because then they wont take up as much realestate on the shelf.

Not trying to be a wisenhiemer, but one could argue that their deployers ARE their weapons. That said, I agree. Whats Drift without his swords?chuckdawg1999 wrote:The deployers look good but I'm disappointed that Drift and Fracture don't come with weapons for themselves.

Please if your going to post this, clarify that I didn't say it. Others might think it was me bashing the kid.
I didn't bash this kid.
Think it might have been best to quote and reply to others who bashed the kid.

You mean quote you like this?
Just joking. I didnt quote you saying anything wrong about the kid because you didnt in the post I did quote. I just didnt want to make a post too long. by quoting everyone. Anyone with half a brain could realize you didnt say anything wrong, you're a good guy with an endearing writing style.

Found Jazz today. He is real cool. Like Miles Davis cool.
His transformation is so awesomely akin to his G1 self. Real intuitive and smooth. Proof again that the Jazz/Datsun transformation is a classic that's withstood the test of time. Really like how the arms form the front end of the car. He has some hollowness, but I think he looks pretty good. Maybe because he's mostly white helps his lack of paint not be so jarring. The paint he does have is applied nicely.
Solid figure, fun transform, decent articulation, and cool alt mode.
Plus, now I got my own Carytheone action figure.
