Prime's truck mode is a bit lacking...and it looks like there will be some kind of trailer for him?

BB looks great. He's gonna be one of the first figures I buy from this line.

No, Hound, that's the cybertronian version of Prime, Deluxe sized, it has no trailer. The Earth mode version is voyager-sized and has a 'trailer' that transforms into Prime's axe.

Did you notice how this is a different Bumblebee then the one we saw at Botcon this year? That one had separate cone-shaped guns in his arms, while this one's are half-cones that join into one weapon. Since we saw BB use separate guns in the trailer, I wonder whether this'll be a sort of upgraded BB...

At any rate, both look cool. Prime has some elements of TWW Prime in him (wheels on shoulders).

Terrible. Prime actually looks worse than Energon. Is this just going to be like a goof that won't last too long? I hope they're not going to waste too much time with this.

Prowl:

Lockdown

Bulkhead

In the beginning I was dubious about Bulkhead but he sort of grew on me. Prowl is ACE, one of the best motorcycle TFs since G2 Road Rocket. And Lockdown is probably the closest thing we are ever gonna get to a Death's Head toy. I see kitbashes coming... :)
