Although I really only want it for the Prime. Don't really care about G2 Jazz or the Mini-Motormaster and Tinycracker.

I don't like him because he looks meh
Jazz isn't that bad but the Reprolabels G2 Jazz upgrade sticker set when applied to him looks better than this version but still quite good.
With the legands I'm not bothered because I've got one of them allready.

These will display wonderfully with that G2 Botcon set. Not to mention, this makes a great stand in for Diaclone Convoy.

Prime is almost okay, again, as usual with this mold and repaints of it, they get 87% of the way there, then screw something up. It's not actually the G1/G2 logo clash that puts me off, but the horrible teal. Doesn't go well at all.

They are not supposed to be in scale being as they are two different size classes of figures. Prime and Jazz are deluxe while Motorbreath and Thundercracker are legends.

No love for the 1989 rifle? You can clip the speakers onto it to make it bigger.

meh jazz is an officer so he should have a smg type weapon at the least....he wouldn't look right with a bfg like optimus has though, but no way does that pistol work, at least for me.

As for that Prime... like I know with the name and colours he's SUPPOSED to resemble that unreleased G2 Hero Prime... but I can't look at him without thinking of Armada Powerlinx Optimus Prime

Same, but this mold with the BTS Battle Tanker kit is pretty awesome, albeit expensive ($104.99 at the usual spots.)

ReproLabels made an awesome sticker kit for Battle Tanker. Even cooler if they made a few different ones for the redeco's.

while the Legends size guys i am not that interested in, the dlxs intrigue me quite a bit.
at least with WM, i have a shot of getting this for a decent price.

it's 2012, we're supposed to have hoverboards (hell, Hasbro advertised in the 80s that they'd be on sale by at least 2005!)
so the scale thing isn't a huge problem...mostly because I'd just forget about those little guys.

But actually, loving it. Wanted some more G2 bots to put with the Botcon set. Bravo.

Lol at FOC Optimus Prime on the front. I can see the meeting now: "Um...we should add something to this box...hey, how about that? That's Fall of Cybertron Optimus Prime, that makes no sense....you know what, fine, its 5:00, lets print and get to Vegas"

And it may be just me but on the in-box pic, it looks like CH Prime is looking at FOC Prime thinking "WTF is he doing here?"

Those Decepticons are Halo Reach opponent tier
