Yes. But. Sideswipe and Hound are smaller Deluxes. So, even though I, personally, see Prime Wars as a soft reboot of CHUG, I think we may be seeing a new standard in terms of size classes.
But I may be getting ahead of myself by considering Studio Series in this too.

They’re just basing everyone off the old scale guide as close as they can.

Just looking at Trailbreakers knees make my knees hurt. Ankle tilts are wonderful. Knee tilts are painful.

Still better than anything currently on CN, Nick, and most of Disney XD....

My local Walmart got rid of their Transformers section completely about a week after getting in some of the Siege line.

Ultra Magnus looks good with that rocket launcher hammer, I'm still dying for good hammer for Siege Ultra Magnus and that might just do it. I plan to give my Ironhide the Cannons from Prime search account and would it be compression guns from the CW helicopter bold talking like to serve as his liquid nitrogen gun. So even if I don't let him keep his rocket launcher Hammer, my Ironhide is still going to be very well-armed

I think you're forgetting how large the Titans Retun deluxes are, Case in point here's Siege Sideswipe stood next to some Combiner Wars jet deluxes:

I disagree. You're comparing deluxe from 2 different lines. You should compare Siege to Siege. And going by the pics, Ironhide is a large deluxe, he stands a head above Sideswipe.william-james88 wrote:also, this proves that unlike what people were thinking, Ironhide is not a big deluxe, he is merely standard size

I choose not to since the name Deluxe has not changed from line to line. I am looking at Deluxe as a class in general.

Yes, but even by that measure wasn't TR Kup on the taller side of the deluxe class?

I thought the big deluxes were more along the lines of TR Wop Spin and Twin Twist. But if Kup is along the bigger ones, then sure I dont mind conceding.

Can confirm, Kup is among the tallest deluxes in TR, alongside Topspin/Twin Twist; most of the others are at least a good half-inch shorter.

Yeah, Kup is tall but skinny. The Jumpstarters are tall and beefy.

Of course, there's still space between the upper limit of one Class and the lower limit of the next, but it's smaller than we might be used to. I wonder, rather than calculating and budgeting per figure, if Hasbro now just goes by the total for each Class, and distributes parts of it according to a figure's needs...

Gotta admit one of the best and brutal scenes in the G1 movie.

Loopaza just posted some Prototype images (TakaraTomy update) for Brunt and Jetfire (Ignore the Megatron MP one.)

Hasbro has been budgetting per class since the days of Aaron Archer (what was said was "per wave" then but the waves now are different than waves then).

The Autobots conducting a smaller heist type Siege against a Decepticon base with a smaller amount but important host of Decepticons, or a big Decepticon raid type Siege against an Autobot city or something and the Autobots from the Siege line are the last of the base/city so no Autotroopers or other backup.
Guys from other toy lines are not involved in this battle so no Bumblebee, Battletrap or Bludgeon unless those characters are introduce in this line later, so yeah this can include any characters who haven't been announced yet, I'll add Skywarp since his toy is confirmed to be an exclusive via toy listings.
So Autobots would be:
Regular Troops: Optimus, Ultra Magnus, Jetfire, Prowl, Ironhide, Chromia, Impactor, Springer, Mirage, Hound, Sideswipe, Red Alert, Bluestreak (If that 30'th anniversary series counts), Six Gun, Cog, Greenlight, Omega Supreme.
Micromasters: Countdown, Roadhandler, Swindler, Topshot, Flak, Red Heat, Stakeout, Highjump, Powertrain.
Battle Masters: Firedrive, Lionizer, Pteraxadon, Smashdown, Dazlestrike
Decepticons would be this including generic Seekers to pad out the Cons since either way the Cons are meant to outnumber the Bots here:
Regular Troops: Megatron, Shockwave, Soundwave, Starscream, Thundercracker, Skywarp, Redwing (If Select series listing real), Refraktor (Spectro and Spyglass too), Skytread, Barricade, Brunt and maybe Combat Hero Megatron as his own character in terms of someone like Archforce.
Micromasters: Laserbeak, Ravage, Storm Cloud, Visper, Blackjack, Hyperdrive
Battle Masters: Blowpipe, Aimless, Caliburst
This is just for fun and was wondering what type of battle would people think most fitting, maybe even a scenario with none of the Battlemasters and Micromasters, or maybe the Micromasters are full sized Transformers themselves and ignore the toy scale, maybe everyone dies.

Does anyone else think that the recent Rid Bludgeon could make for a good Seige stand in figure minus the lack of Battle damage?
The non human looking tank works as a Cybertronian tank and he might be short compared to say Megatron or Soundwave from the line but I think short can work for Bludgeon as a lighting fast tank which would translate to the whole fast samurai sword skills thing.

For my part, I plan to mix the Classics seekers into my Siege-heavy CHUG display in place of the tetrajets. Hopefully the size and style differences won't clash too much.

Also, the side panel flaps on his legs like to pop off every time you breath near him.
As you can see in the picture, the one on his right leg doesn't even tab in. Seriously, the last time I had a figure with pieces that popped off this easy was Alternators Grimlock's doors.

The side panels on mine pop off easily too but other than that mine is solid. Everything is nice and tight.

Unless the Firestormer Sideswipe uses the CW Breakdown mold, then no. That's not even a rumor, just a hope some people (including me) have with the two Sideswipes and the use of Firestormer as both a group name and a combiner name.
