I'm not sure about the robot mode. He looks too bulky. But, the alt mode looks really nice...

WIN! WIN! WIN! Getting very excited about these!
Now come on Mudflap and Simmons.

Also, I'm just waiting for someone to make a joke about Mikaela straddling Skids arm.

I may actually get the SKids as well. My daughter would enjoy the Mikaela and Arcee toys. She was pretty excited to see a Sam Witwicky Polly Pocket sized toy hahaha.

Is it me or does Sideswipe look like he's put on a few pounds. A few too many cyber-donuts??? And his feet, I didn't think they could do worse than the deluxe. Man I was so ready to buy this, but now, I think I'll pass unless some more flattering pics show up.

The arcee looks pretty decent considering what her regular figure looks like.

They look pretty cool. I still need to pick up BB...

It's a strange pairing though since Mikaela never interacted with Skids (or Arcee) during the movie AFAIR... Wasn't Simmons driving Skids?

Oh my god those both look amazing!

I think it's kinda weird that Skids looks like an amalgam of the toy designs of his and Mudflap's deluxe incarnations. Does that meen HA Mudflap's gonna have door-calves and no wings?

They're both 'meh' to me.

The likeness factor is very low, human-wise. At least the Sam that came with my BB looks like he's thinking "No no no no no no no no no!!!!!!!". Mikaela and Epps don't really look like themselves at all.

Character and design-wise I'm not a fan of Sideswipe or Skidz Shady.

HA Barricade and Frenzy, on the other hand, will surely rawk...can't wait to pit them against HA Sam 'n Bee.

I *LOVE* Skids, but I honestly only want to own him if we get a Mudflap to go with him.

Cheers!

I HAVE to get this Sideswipe. Wow. Just wow.

Sideswipe a must-have for me. I don't like how the top part of Skids' doors are not painted to lineup with the rear window, looks kinda awkward.

Excited. I could have done without the Arcee Transforming, But its all bonus.

I think Deluxe Sideswipe is good, but HA Sideswipe looks UGLY. HA Skid and HA Bumblebee are both awesome.

I love this line.....

Wow, these look even better than expected, especially Skids.

mikala doesnt look anything like her. gotta be tough to do though.

Strange cause you would think it would be easy to translate a plastic face to a plastic toy :p

I like that line. My only complaint ( and it's a very small one) is that the human caracters are a bit small to really be in scale with vehicle modes, but at least we finally got figurines of human caracters (I know there was kicker in Energon but he probably was the only one and was very tall to fit with the rest of the line) and they can fit in the Alternators too. A full line could be fun.
