Aww, I slept through helping with the official images posts.
Going to start off with
Generations:
Totally dig Nightbeat from Bumblebee. So glad that I couldn't find Goldfire. I was going to get him for the sake of owning at least one version of the mold, but seeing Nightbeat, I'll make sure to pick him up.
Windblade looks nice when she's transformed properly. Probably will pick her up.
I wish they had done a G2-accurate deco for Jhiaxus. For those who say that the deco would look wonky, the deco on the retail versions of the
Fall of Cybertron Combaticons were pretty wonky themselves.
I'm liking Roadbuster. Pretty much poops on Fansproject's (sorry Mkall).
There's only two things that bug me with Sky-Byte; his claw/fin arm and his legs. I feel like the arm should be larger, and I do not like the looks of his legs.
Jetfire is perfect. I like how his Macross Valkyrie head is actually a straight-up mask, and his cartoon-accurate head is the real deal.
I'll be anxiously awaiting more
Generations reveals. So far, it and other
Classics-affiliated figures are a big part of my collection.
On to the
Age of Extinction figures:
I'm happy to see the
Age of Extinction toys to be properly transformed. They look much more appealing than the galleries implied.
I'm torn on the Dinobots. I'll probably pick up at least some of them, mainly Slug and Strafe. Scorn looks cool, but Slash has got some issues with stabbing himself with his knees. I don't know which version of Grimlock I like least; Voyager looks the best, but it's too small. Leader is the best size, but the T-Rex mode looks disproportional. I'll wait for some in-hand images to make a final decision.
Even though we didn't get official images for him and Bumblebee for whatever reason, Crosshairs looks awesome, will probably be picking him up.
Drift's deco still befuddles me. If he's primarily black with teal accents in the film, then where did the blue come from?
I mean, he looks cool, but his deco bothers me as much as
Generations Jhiaxus.
Hound looks great, but I don't like the accordions that are his arms. I doubt he'll have sprongy punchy arms in the film.
Galvatron looks... generic. That's all I can say. If he had more color on him, I'd bite some more. Really, it depends on how he's characterized in the film before I make a final decision.
Can't wait to see more reveals in the coming months! Hopefully we'll see more Decepticons, as all we've seen in the collector-oriented line is Galvatron.
I might even buy some of the better ones at full price. Lockdown and Hound look particularly appealing. I think Hasbro is doing much better with Construct-bots this time around. Also that red dino from the simplified line looks happy to see me
at last movie figures with actual guns & melee weapons
