EVERYTHING IN THIS LINE IS AMAZING

You can say that again.

Why you crapping so badly on the line Will? This line looks amazing (minus Optimus), and with Grimlock, that fake head is basically seamless, dunno why it's getting such a hard time from you.

And TLK had some great molds. Barricade was a good toy, not overly lackluster, and the voyagers killed it, and there is no real indication that they are gonna drop in quality except for the above mentioned Optimus. TLK killed it with many figures, and Hasbro seems to be going strong again here.

Lockdown and Jazz are really cool! Except for some smaller feet, Jazz continues to look perfect. Love Lockdowns weapons. And if the thing about the saw is true for Starscream, I'll wait for his tattooed self to get the saw.

I'm hoping Megs does end up silver, but he is a buy either way.

There's been a noticeable amount of salt floating around here since toy fair, not sure why though, but, this line has me so seriously stoked for movie toys, I'm pretty nostalgic for them too, would love a great movie jazz and lockdown, as their first versions were pretty lackluster, gonna get everything probably 'cept the leaders

Mostly in other threads, I think it was the one-two punch of potp ending earlier than we wanted (and with only one(?) new deluxe) and predaking being super anticlimactic, on top of the super s****y cyberverse line lowering the bar even further being fresh on peoples minds. I personally think this toy fair did a number on our morale as collectors, I guess it's more something I'm sensing from people's comments than anything, but I'm in that group too...

I'm honestly really happy that this line is receiving near universal praise and excitement from people, but I guess that could be from it not being leaked and being the only great thing to come from the toy fair this year

As a movie lover, this line is my dream. I'm so stoked we are getting all these new figures, and I am going to love this. If Battletrap isn't my figure of the year this year, I think one of these will definitely be it

Yeah, sad to not see a perfect deluxe barricade yet, but the dotm one is pretty perfect

General warning to you guys: apparently, Baltmatrix got his wave 1 deluxes and broke his Bee pretty fast. Not surprised considering he seems to break figures regularly and is not exactly a good reference for quality on figures, especially movie ones, but worth noting to you guys

Baltmatrix's video review of the highly anticipated Bee!



I CANT WAIT TO OWN IT!

Only figure that doesn't look good is that Optimus, where all the other figures seem to use their v-mode parts to create their bot-mode looks, Prime just gets faux-parts and less flames. He'll be a definite pass as far as this line goes.

"All it takes is one, bad, day"

The quality did a nose dive on that Bumblebee. Parts popping off, loose joints... That doesn't bode well.
