Wouldn't that mean that the upcoming figure is, at least, similar to the art? It'd be a little silly if he looked nothing like the big display they have set up.

I am curious how they will do a figure that's a tall as Metroplex while having Trypticon's bodyshape. That's a lot of plastic. I have a bad feeling he's going to be smaller (maybe Devastator's height)

Considering that they used the legends art for all of the cw releases (where relevant) I'd say, not neccesarily, and hopefully not at any rate, if they go that G1, I'm out >:oP

The Decepticons look awesome as always. Planning on getting some but I'm unsure about Soundwave. Though I have nothing against the figure it's just that I have a lot of Soundwaves already.

Great galleries! I really like Stripes. Hopefully they'll come out with a Nightstalker.

Pass on all of these. I do like Mindwipe's bat head but the rest of the toy doesn't work for me. I'd only get Wirewolf if I found him cheap cos the wolf mode disappoints me. Pass on Soundwave cos he's too big and I'm so sick of him and Blaster sharing molds. And his minions just look crappy. Astrotrain is the best one here and looks a lot better than Sentinel so if I was to buy that mold I'd definitely go with Astro.

Don't worry mate, he's getting a new toy. Hasbro put out a poll asking which should be the next character to get the Titan Class treatment; Trypticon won.

They've shared molds twice...in 30 years. Fall of cybertron and the cybertron Soundwave mold...just twice.

We are getting wax trypticon but it's not official product it's by third party company same company who made wfc omega surpreamme I have go to work don't have time look for link and pictures for that figure

They could be transformed incorrectly. Also, I'm betting they're tooled to have God Bomber shoes!! :-D

Ya, I'm perplexed by those feet. :-?
Not as wowed as I had hoped to be, and not sure I'm excited by the G1y retool of the truck cab.
Color layout looks really nice though.
Are they overlooking the city mode?

For me, Soundwave, Alpha Trion, and Astrotrain are the big standouts. I'm not that into any of the deluxe figures. Probably because I don't really know any of them. :???:
What series are these characters coming from? Keep in mind I've only seen G1 up through the movie

I don't think they are. They're the same in the prototype and when was the last time we saw anything mistransformed by Takara. Official or prototype.

Probably is for God bomber MAYBE but since the Yen is up I am not spending $80-90 on a leader class.

The rest does look lovely though

It's just a couple pictures. I'm sure we'll see some city mode picture from TFYUKI once it gets closer to release. They just released city mode pics of skull cruncher and Galvatron and they don't even have city modes

I can totally see this getting a Platinum release eventually. Won't hold out hope but I imagine hasbro seeing this and saying "yeah we should find a way to put this out somehow in a year or two. They've done that before.

Thanks.

To transform him that way, basically, put him in cannon mode but don't rotate the panels the arms are attached to. Leave them as they'd be in robot mode. Fold the forearms up to the shoulders. Move the cockpit down a bit to act as a handle.

Fairly simple, but looks good.
