Such a strong MASK vibe from these 2, more than any of the others. I really wasn't planning on picking anything other than the Voyager Ironhide and Ultimate Prime, but these do look good.

What's wrong with that motorcycle one? It looks like it got hit with a combo attack from both the stupid AND the ugly stick.

HA Roadbuster looks great, but, uh...

MUST HAVE HUMAN ALLIANCE LEADFOOT!!!!

*ahem* That would be nice.

I agree, The HA stuff is looking good. I'm gonna have to go back and buy the previous ones now .

I'm kinda stoked that they're doing a 2 robots in 1 deal with Tailpipe and his little buddy (whom I'm calling Exhaust unless they say differently.) I hope there's other coming who follow the same design principle.

Hasbro should name the little guy Backwind.

I don't care for Roadbuster, but I do like Tailpipe! I'm pretty fond of all the "Basic" HA figures. And I'm sure that part of the appeal is that they remind me of M.A.S.K.

He's definantly a brighter green than I would have thought. I wonder though, does his guns flip in and out on the vehicle mode? if so..

After the day I have had so far I needed the laugh.. Thanks a bunch!

So, Hasbro. Buddy. Pal. Friend o'Mine. These look cool, but I have a question for you.

When are you going to, well, you know...

JUST MAKE TF vs GIJOE SETS!

Sheesh. Sorry about yelling but I've had Blue Bearings for over 20 years now and need a release. You show us a crappy cobra commander figure with a skystriker painted up like screamer, but in the end it is still a Crappy Cobra Commander figure with a poorly painted Skystriker...

Seriously. Just do it already. If you don't, some 3rd party will...

HA FTW! I'll definitely be getting HA Roadbuster versus his other forms. Kinda iffy about the other HA Basics, though. I can't say I'm disappointed they're expanding HA though, and it's going to have characters that will actually be in the film in it. With the earlier HA appearances I was afraid it was all going to be triple changers (into weapons, if that counts, or if there's a term for it) who may only be random weapons in the movie. Lol.

meh

Well, I know which version of Roadbuster i'm getting now.

I really liked the Human Alliance stuff for the last go around. I'm not feeling the Nascar fella though. Maybe after seeing the movie I might change my tune. I do think the motorcycle guys look cool but if I'm out on these, I need to be completely.

Roadbuster is looking really cool. I wonder if they're going to release the other 2 Wreckers, and if all of their vehicles are fully 'stealth forced' like Roadbuster here, I would almost definitely pick them all up. Their deluxe versions don't look bad at all either though (though Roadbuster isn't SF up), so we'll see how the other HAs look, but odds are they'll look even better.

As for Tailpipe, he actually looks really cool in my opinion. Sure he's really simple looking but he also comes with a little robot, which is pretty cool. And his weird hover bike mode looks quite interestng.

Entertainment Earth has listed new Human Alliance figures (in particular, Skids and Roadbuster) with packaging images! Awesome! ^_^

Roadbuster looks better than the deluxe version, but I probably won't get it unless it has an unarmed vehicle mode as well.

I had a feeling we'd be getting an 'attack-mode' Roadbuster as one of the HAs, there's a certain pattern Hasbro seems to be taking with the Wreckers; the Cyberverse, Deluxe, and HA each get two of the Wreckers, one clean and one with guns; and each Wrecker gets two toys, one clean and one with guns. Going by that apparent pattern, the next Wrecker toy we'll see would be a clean HA Leadfoot.

Not sure how that'd work with the giant Target logo (not that it couldn't be replaced with a fake one).

Sgt Recon and Sgt Noble ... Hasbro's really pulling out the creativity with this line!

So far it looks like the HA line will make up the majority of my DOTM purchases. The HA Roadbuster looks superior to his deluxe, and I prefer him and his Wrecker brethren to have a lot more size to them versus other TFs. I plan to get all of the HA Basic figures, Tailpipe being the latest addition to my Want List. Hopefully the HA line gets some decent distribution, because outside of new characters (Skyhammer), I'm not really liking anything outside of HA for DOTM...

Neither one of these is doing anything at all for me. So far, the best thing about this thread is Serpent 0r's sig. That made my day!

let there be 3 human alliance wreackers i hate to buy 2 deluxe figures & 1 ha figure i would like the 3 brothers be in scale with one & other looks like his missles can move in & out in car mode, front fender can move back & forth waitng for the 2 to be in ha seresi will be big win

Dude, whoever the guy above me is really needs to work on their punctuation. Anyway, It appears that Roadbuster can switch to and from Stealth Force Mode. emphasis on "appears" BUT if all of the HA Figures can do it, then I'm sold on the wreckers. BTW, wasn't there suppose to be an earth mode Soundwave HA fig? Only in product listings, no pics, yet.............

Irony is a truly wonderful thing...

I've got to have Roadbuster. Just too epic to pass up.

ok that roadbuster is a crap load more detailed and looks a lot better than his deluxe counter part. im betting he is that size of the current human alliance figures and not the human alliance basic. thats what im hoping anyway.

Totally gonna repaint Roadbusters little human alliance driver all white and call him The Stig!

Some say that his other car is an Autobot, and it has the face of a NASCAR hick... all we know is, he's called The Stig!

So they made a soldier look like a nascar driver. Come on ? I understand the whole nascar wrecker thing but they should have made him in army fatigues. After all the car doesnt look like your typical nascar, with all the weapons on it. lol. Where is hardcore eddie. He should definitely have a human alliance figure. The mini figs look a little weak on some of these. Hope they look better in the final product.

I just noticed the packaging got smaller. Anyway judging from these photos and the price point, it's safe to say Roadbuster is full-size. The little ones have a different type of packaging similar to Power Core combiners.

Are you referring to the one without guns as the deluxe one?

Such a strong MASK vibe from these 2, more than any of the others. I really wasn't planning on picking anything other than the Voyager Ironhide and Ultimate Prime, but these do look good.

I kind of had the same vibe. Say, didn't Hasbro buyout Kenner a while back?

Oh thats just freaking great! First they come out with a crappy deluxe of Roadbuster, then an AWESOME deluxe of Topspin. Then I was like, well I want my Wreckers so I guess wasting money on that boring Roadbuster for a nice shelf display wont hurt that much right? Now they come out with the most BADASS Human Alliance Ive seen so far and it looks amazing! Please be more awesome Wrecker Human Alliances please.

Now Im confused. I thought both of them were deluxe ???

Based on the pics of the packaging, I'm pretty sure this on is your regular HA size(same as BB, Sideswipe, etc.).

They look very good especially Roadbuster as human alliance I hope the other two will be the same even though the delux versions are made

I know people have complained about the movie designs looking like Bionicles, but this is rediculous. Hes so awkward looking. I guess Jazz will be my last HA figure after all.

The bike is pretty kickin rad tho.
