Hmmm, a Grimlock with a t-rex head hand? Couldn't possibly guess what that could be repurposed for. :-?

I take it that "Commander Class" is just "Cyberverse Commander" rebranding? Makes sense if those armor bits on them are Mini-con armor bits as well.

All these Minicon and deployed, and Soundwave is stuck in the negative zone. Oh, the slings and arrows of outrageous fortune!

If these are what amounts to the current generations legends class and the former cyberverse commander class, as was noted, I'll be quite interested in it. I guess we shouldn't think about the end of the series but instead appreciate what we'll still be getting from it. Poor Strongarm doesn't get a figure. Hopefully she and some Decepticons with Autobot Minicons also come along. Could be a fun little line. And Warrior Grimlock may finally be in scale.

I could go for some killer Decepticon spheres.

Of course minicon madness happens after I decide to collect 'em all.

So this guy:

Is awesome and has a hair ball problem.

And does the minicon turn into a robot chicken? Cause it looks like a chicken to me.

First hasbro has to see how the new line goes, sales wise, then, if it succeeds, it can be full steam ahead.

Funny you should say that. If the deployed stays where it is in vehicle mode, the car essentially lays a minicon egg. :lol:

I'm kind of digging Crazybolt. I also think the deployed gimmick works better for him and Overload than it did for the first two.

It just occurred to me. If Crazybolt is a nod to the Beast Wars Neo character, who was a frilled lizard, then RID Crazybolt is like a dilophosaurus that spits minicons!

Crazybolt looks rather like a toad to me.

I like that one of the Minicon sphere is a spitting image of one of the old Microchange/ Kissplayers Sparkbot / Beast Wars EggBot toys. (the bird one).

Overload looks quite good inside the parametres the line sets itself.

I will have to stroke my chin a bit about the new smaller scale main character toys - if I like them may depend on if they are the same size as Combiner Wars Legends class or bigger.

I'd actually like them to be the smaller size. Not that I dislike scouts - but the other size is more of the default size for that sort of thing than scout size is.

Over all Interesting and I'll buy some if they sell them cheaply enough.

Crazybolt's robot mode is a bit odd, but I do like the vehicle mode, the shape reminds me of the Tim Burton Batmobile. I'll definitely buy him, though the only accompanying Mini-Cons I'll get for him are the ones that appear in the show.

I like the two new deployers as well as the new mini-con shape, makes sense that they're round so they can roll. I'd be lying if I didn't add that just looking at the pics, has caused me to loose interest in the mini-cons; the same limited molds over and over. The Commander Class is where it's at for me. I've always liked smaller figures.

Those minis are looking pretty cool. At least Jetstorm is getting an individual release (in the wrong colors though) So I can get the minis without the deployer. yay!!

And some of the designs do look cool, plus the energon bits

And how about that Crazybolt? That is weird as all get out man
:BOT:

Having just looked at the new battle packs, looks like some interesting stuff. The snap on armor definitely is cool, and the molds actually look pretty good and cool. Love Optimus and that battle axe, not to mention how the Grimlock armor homages his AoE look. Overall, lookin good! :BOT:

I'm digging Crazybolt's crazy look and the new round minicons. At first blush I thought crazybolt was an Ani Lockdown repaint.

When i first saw the news post, I had no idea who the car was. then it turned out to be a frog things that spits minicons while still being a badass car. That is pretty interesting :BOT:
