Those Deluxes look great! First-gen F-body TF FTW!!

And Evasion Mode Optimus? Cool! Sounds like a plot device.

Didn't see a name for the Argosy truck, was there one? Actually, I think I put it together with the description in the first post. Great work guys, keep it up.

Holy crap! All that worrying and panic button pushing for nothing. On first glance, these figures actually look rather decent, cool even. I just hope that they managed to pull those off without much transformation cheating.

Ingenious how they used the curves of the car's hood for Crosshair's coattails. Drift looks great, if a little too bulky. Can't wait to see the robot mode on that leader Grimlock.

So, are these the ones that are coming out in under the Generations line? If not, will there be another set of figures that will be even more complex/collector-oriented than these ones?

Amongst all the awesome Generations reveals, I'm super disappointed at that Mr. Potato Head Grimlock. The first pictures we were shown had him with blue G1 style eyes. This prototype shows him with derp eyes. I was so excited, but if Grimlock has those derp eyes on the production version, there's no situation in which I'd buy it.
Also, these collector versions of the AOE deluxe toys. They look like a substantial size, and I would anticipate them being expensive for that reason. Don't be surprised if their price approaches $20

The Age of Extinction line has the simpler stuff and the Generations stuff. The latter is the more complex, collector geared line. :D

What we see here, other than the ones that look like shellformers and FABs, are the Movie Generations.

Everything look great, especially our fan favourite Sky-Byte. Hey, I wonder if his bio will be written in a haiku like they said they would for Universe :lol:
The resident Rewind... well, half of one :lol:

Looking for:
- TR Furos (Hardhead's head) and Crashbash (lost him :()
- PotP Punch head
- TR Galvatron right arm (the gun one)
- CW Brake-Neck/UW Wildrider, CW Offroad
- TR Twinferno & Grotusque
- Greenlight, Lancer and PotP Elita-1 (plus repro Victorion hands and feet?)

That would be Galvatron, yeah! Which also visually confirms the slicing bot from the trailer.

And yeah, that does not look like Nightbeat. :-?

That grey car would be Crosscut. I don't see the light blue Nightbeat made from either Jazz or Bumblebee anywhere though. Maybe they didn't have a sample ready?

Well sh.... Mother f.... GODDAMNIT!

I was going to skip the movie line! Why in the hell do these have to look awesome!

I was telling myself to skip the movie line because, after having seen the first edition Optimus, I thought it would be horrible! I figured I'd get Grimlock and MAYBE Crosshairs, but they all look awesome! That's not fair! My wallet can't repel want of this magnitude!

**EDIT**

Also: I am *SOOOOOOO* glad I didn't go through with my plan to buy the Ruination version of the Wreckers since it looks like we'll be getting Generations versions of all of them! Just need Impactor, Twintwist, Topspin, Wrack n' Ruin, and Broadside now! :D
