I'm getting Optimus, Bumblebee and on the fence about Starscream but Soundwave's the only one of these that interests me.

You're probably right, but between glare and possibly the setting on my laptop I couldn't tell if it was TC or SW.

Joke aside, these sets look tempting and I like these small figures. How cool if Thundercracker can sit in Lego X-Wing's cockpit. Or have anybody drive the Lego Batmobile.

It would be a bonus if the larger building block project was even remotely cool looking.

My only disappointment with this is the fact that they look way to much like LEGO KOs, and if Hasbro would team up with LEGO... Awesomeness would be born, LEGO Transformers, LEGO Battleship, LEGO Monopoly... So many combinations...

We should probably make sure we have the whole story as to why they aren't teaming up with Lego on this before jumping down Hasbro's or Kre-O's throats for making "knock-offs". We have Star Wars Legos and Star Wars Transformers but there must be a good reason why we don't have official Lego Transformers. Of course that reason may prove to be more confounding than the fact that I'm actually standing up for Hasbro on this.

How do I know? I own several sets of this company's product.
The accessory sprues are the same, if you look at the blocks, there's always one with a small divot in it and there's one of those blocks in the pictures above.
My point is, yes they're quality pieces, and yes they're compatible with Lego, but it bothers me that a $3.00 building block set will cost you anywhere from $5.00 to $60.00, depending on the name slapped on it.
Knowing this, I won't be paying those prices.

There won't. Hasbro is intentionally not going to release it in order to make your Skywarp collection forever incomplete.
Seriously though, I will be buying all of these. Looks much better then the BTR stuff.

Funny, because I never had much interest for robot heroes. At least now we know why they cut off that line.... dun dun DUN.
