I totally like 'Hotshots' facedesign. THE GOGGLES, THEY DO NOTHING.

So what's this (no doubt it will be) lame gimmick all about?

Okay this "Hot Shot" head design makes me feel allot better about bumblebee being a straight up movie homage. This just looks like... suck. Unless of course those goggles move in which case I could see why it would be Hotshot.

TOO MANY TOYS HASBLOW!!!

Seriously though are these "revealers" just little gimmicky automorphs? Where the heck is that Vehicon's kibble?

The description on the website mentions:

"They introduces[sic] an innovation in transformation - simply scan your Powerizer with your Smart Phone and see the power of Transformation!"

I know it says Powerizer but this description is on both the Powerizer and Revealer listings. What it means, I haven't a clue. Maybe this is Hasbro's latest attempt to go environmentally friendly. No more paper instructions. Instead you get the instructions on your phone.

As far as the Vehicon's kibble goes, it's impressive if they've come up with a new figure of the same character and managed to stow it all away.

i want the energon drill. reminds me of the drill shedder uses in tmnt back in the 1990's but i never get to buy.

New Vehicon looks dope.

Definitely lends itself to a runamuck/runabout custom paintjob for both vehicons moulds.

COPYRIGHTed IDEA!

This will be hilarious if the Vehicon is the one good figure in the entire mainline. :lol:

But also sad... :-(

They're supposed to light up, aren't they? One of the previously shown newsbits about this was a light up Optimus.

Other than that, I can't see a reason for translucent plastics. As doofy as it is, it better light up. Better get something out of it.

Ugh, I hate Transluscent plastic on my TF's. Crap...this feels like Beast Machines all over again.. :SICK:

On a lighter note, at least Voyager Megatron looks good. I can understand him having a few Transluscent purple parts due to his having absorbed dark energon. The new Voyager Prime doesn't look as good as the 1st edition one though. However, the Vehicon looks a lot better without all the kibble that the first edition one has hanging off the back.

I was excited about TF Prime toys, but Hasbro is going totally the wrong direction with these in my books. I don't want inexplicable clear parts and stupid gimmicks. I just want show accurate, well designed figures. I want this line to be another Transformers Animated, totally perfect.

Am I the only one who doesnt want these ??? (except vechicon since he is unique)

I cleared our our local Argos (1 toy in stock - Cliffjumper) and then the nearest Argos Extra (2 toys in stock - Bumblebee and Soundwave).

Bee you've seen before (and he's a disapointment), Rockjumper, sorry Cliffjumper, has been seen before, but as Soundwaveseems to be a UK before US release we thought we through some images and information up.

Goodpoints - nice sculpting
Badpoints - horrid lack of knee movement

Japanese version with paintn should look better, but my favorite Transformers Prime toy so far.

I will be buying every last one of these. Except maybe that ROTF Legends Sideways repaint. I love translucent pieces.

Posted by dinogeist on January 21st, 2012 @ 9:34am CST

I really like the new mold vechicon. the robot mode looks leaps & bounds better than the first version.

I think it was clever recoloring the bumblebee mold blue & calling it hotshot. I guess hotshot will be using his 2005 cybertron toy line blue colors in TF Prime.

I'm kinda happy their is another voyager new mold in the TF Prime toy line. I think voyager megatron looks decent.

I gonna guess the TF Prime,Driller,is the thing the Vechicons use to dig out the energon in the earth. I think the driller things looks a bit like the "Collossus thing that shockwave used to destroy all those building on earth in the DOTM Movie.

I love the "toy fair" weeks. i'm hoping their is more reveals like more voyagers new molds for TF Prime & generations. more leader sized new molds for TF Prime & generations in 2012. more supreme new molds for TF Prime & Generations in 2012.

I find that kind of funny, cause the unique one, is the one that's got the most army building potential.

it does look good though

Rated X your not alone dude and if you haven't seen the show you are not missing much IMO. Even though the majority seems to really dig this latest TF series doesn't deviate from the fact that most of these figs are lame. Gundam-it Classics/Generations where are you? :BANG_HEAD:

It makes sense that Hot Shot would be based on Bumblebee, but for me that's a reason not to buy it. Maybe if they had remolded the vehicle mode I would have bitten, but as it is, no. I'm glad I don't have to go back and buy a bunch of Hot Shots now. This guy's not cool enough to be worth it. I don't need a Bumblebee in a blue suit and goggles. :p

Voyager Megatron looks cool but I'm really worried about that left hand. I REALLY hope that thing is removeable. I'll probably buy it even if it's not, but I won't be happy about it.

Vehicon looks good. I also wonder where all the kibble is. But it's another buy. I probably will get both Vehicon molds if I can.

Some weapons will light up, making the translucent parts light up too.

Disappointed that Evac is the only non-repaint Movieverse figure we've seen so far.

I doubt they'd put something as vital as instructions in a completely unrelated product, at least as the only source for it. Including a set of instructions with the toy itself AND having the ability to get another set of instructions by scanning the toy with a smart phone would be more likely, and actually pretty useful.

We do know that there are printed instruction sheets.

from http://www.transformertoys.co.uk/resources/review/transformers+prime/+soundwave+/4096/3.

I would find it quite insulting if they were wupporting Smartphones against other stuff, but I do also think it would be nice to avoid all the printing. Maybe an online set of instructions instead..?

In any case, has anyone found out what the 'power of transformation' gimmick is?

I actually love the show. I recently got hold of the whole season one (screw SOPA) And I really do enjoy TF Prime. But I need to control my spending habits since I spent so much last year on 3rd party stuff. So TF prime figures are off my list as well as most new movie stuff. I like vechicon but I dont plan to use him as a troop builder. He is going to be a cybertronian decepticon with Shockwaves army on my classics shelf.

Guys, The first edition Vehicon, whas he in stores in the US?
The guy is ultra expensive on ebay and can't find him anywhere else. Brrrr, I like him the most of the FE Prime figures and I think I missed out on the big release.
