I wouldn't mind that BB mode as , say Glyph (or another "unreleased" character) and the seeker as Sunstorm.I REALLY like this Bumblebees alt mode. The Baja Buggy just looks really fun. His robot mode looks ok. Better on the back of the package than in the straight on toy pics.
Starscream looks pretty decent in both modes. Not world shaking but decent.
If they were sold separately I would probably buy the BB and might pass on the Screamer... together I don't know. Might be too rich for my blood.
-ZacWilliam, what I like most about these two toys is that it's a StarScream and Bumblebee that are the G1 characters but are not trying to match the G1 cartoon designs. It's been too long since we got new designs and alt modes for the classic guys, rather than just a new iteration of the basic default.
To each their own. To me it's pretty much what I want out of a G1 Seeker. This take on 'Screamer is pretty cool because he's G1 Starscream after an update. I dig it, but it's also a spicy update, and not what I'd want as the main representation of the character in my collection.I've always hated the Classics/ER torso. It's boxy without even having the dignity of being a complete box. It's just the front and back panels of a box. No depth.
I'd love to see that Bumblebee mold with a new head used as an update of the Buggy-type Mini Spy
Ractivate Optimus Prime’s toy has leaked, with full in hand photos. Looks like they reused a a LOT of Siege design work, but it still works VERY well.
I like a lot of the elements here, it’s a nice mix of G1, Authentics with a splash of the current movie styling. He’s also surprisingly beefy for a Voyager, and the accessories are nicely done. He still retains elements of that “field repair” look, but I appreciate they opted not to make him as patchwork as Starscream.
About the only significant negative I have at the moment is that he is rumored to come with a deluxe Soundwave. Which just doesn’t excite me.
That looks perfectly fine but in no way something I even remotely need.
-ZacWilliam, which is great, good for them.
Agreed. It's definitely a good-looking G1-ish Prime, but I'm well stocked on those already. Released in an interesting color scheme as like a Shattered Glass or even Nightwatch type colors, and I might bite.
That's what I was thinking. Prime and Megatron are the two bots I'm happy to have multiple iterations for but this one is just too similar to the recent live film versions and has come out after quite a few other Prime's recently.Agreed. It's definitely a good-looking G1-ish Prime, but I'm well stocked on those already. Released in an interesting color scheme as like a Shattered Glass or even Nightwatch type colors, and I might bite.
