I have wanted a Tetrajet since the closing credits of the cartoon taunted me with it every afternoon as a child. Will buy as many of them as you make, Hasbro. Give me the classic trio at least. Oh God, its classics 1.0 seeker all over again with you.

Ok, I posted this on FB with little response.
Did anyone see the image of Omegas tank open and the Micromaster inside?? Looks exactly like Countdown from the Rocket base playset. Makes sense for him to be with Omega, but has me wondering if they are going to have the playset too, or maybe make Omegas alt mode more like the Micromaster Rocket base.

That actually makes all the sense in the world. I wonder if they could continue to pair-up similar Transformers and Micromasters and get more of them out there that way. There are going to be a lot of characters orphaned by the team 2-packs. Or just pack a Micromaster who's not included in one of the team packs with a larger guy. Perhaps even come up with a way to mount the smaller one on the bigger toy as a sort of power-up or something, possibly even activating a weapon or action feature that is otherwise inaccessible.

I'm loving Sixgun having a hovertank mode and I'm digging robot. Even in seperate components, it looks like it has a Macross/Mecha feel to it.
Pteraxadon looks fun. Just depends on if I can actually find one. The $5 class has a horrible track record being stocked in my area.
Prowl though....I'm very disappointed in. The face sculpt looks good and the alt still looks like a police cruiser but the rest of the body just is...meh. Until I see more in hand pics, I think I prefer TFU 2.0 Prowl more. Now with some different colors, a new head sculpt, the mold might look better as Barricade.

Sixgun is brillaint, and I've always wanted to see them take the Targetmaster concept further, so I'm digging Pteraxodon. But Prowl.. eeergh. Don't like. If you're gonna go Cybertron mode, go all the way with it, otherwise just make him G1 Prowl again. This thing looks like one of those stupid concept cars you see at auto shows you know will never actually be on a road anywhere.

The funny thing is with that Prowl toy, is much like the PotP Jazz toy... There's some serious potential with it... As OTHER characters. Prowl looks like he could be a great Overdrive, Jackpot or even Zoom-Zoom. It doesn't look like a BAD toy... But just a BAD Prowl.

Prowl is supposedly getting repainted as a Generations style Barricade. I'm anxious to see how well he wears this mold. Also same on what you said about Jazz. I'm still waiting on a Drench repaint.

Looks like Siege Voyagers and Deluxes are starting to hit some online retailers and the first wave of Battle Masters have been sighted in a California Target store.
And I REALLY need to stop watching video reviews. I caught one for Siege Optimus Prime. While I was initially 100% against getting it, I'm now considering it. Truck mode still looks awful and I don't like the weathering but looking closer at that robot mode, he looks like he might actually be the first Prime that would come close, if not outright, replacing my 2006 Classics voyager on my Classics shelf.
