With that in mind, if these "not-Constructicons" are Deluxe Class or even Voyager Class, then each one will most likely be $75.00 to $100.00 each, respectively. So when all is said and done and shipping is calculated in, I'll be surprised if this complete set sells for less than $1000.00.
My concern based on green/purple figures picture, I hope the characters don't each come in a different shade of green and purple. I hope all characters share the same shade of neon green and same shade of dark purple.
Regardless, I think this is going to be a sweet set to have and a must-have for the G1 collector, especially those of us that lived it.

Haha, just like Voltron. I was never able to complete it when I was younger.

There are indeed advantages for both a staggered release and a grouped release. Not sure which I prefer but either way I sure hope TFClub won't expect punters to put down the cash until we've seen the entire set. Ideally I'd like them to get some early completed sets out to Optibotimus, peaugh and Vange1us for them to review to help prove that it'll be worth SUCH an investment. I'm sure those three will agree with me, lol.

This is by far their most ambitious outing. Hopefully it will be available through the regular online retailers, BBTS, TFsource, etc.

Or send them here... A certain established third party has been doing it for their past two major releases..

judging by the size of their legs and distance apart they look like they can stand on their own
with out aid from the tails unless their tails are too heavy then we have a problem
WeatherManNX01 wrote:Yeah, my fear is that their backpacks are going to make them so backheavy as to require the tails. If one, maybe two did that, I think it'd be forgivable - I can overlook one or two of six. But that we've already seen two of them that appear to have tails does not bode well for the rest. We shall see...

Ooo! What if TFClub sent a different bot to each of them and a few other big names (say, this one) and they'd all have to work together to make the gestalt at botcon. The final reveal would be a big event!
ALSO, I found on TFW2005 this image with their coverage:

On the shelf above happens to be Grindcore without his gun. A deluxe from the TF Cybertron line. I don't own this dude, but I'll say they're going to be a bit larger.
