Li'l Hound looks in good scale with Silverbolt and Powerglide.

:tflaugh

the target exclusive of movie jazz (in g1 colors) or the animated jazz would both fit in the classics shelf nicely

Looks like I'm going to have to start planning that gold heist that's going to help me afford all of this Transformer goodness. I'm especially digging Ironhide. I always thought he should have been made a bit better than his original G1 appearance (which, btw, was my very first Transformer).

I'm a bit disappointed with Jazz, though. I thought he was getting the deluxe treatment instead of the Legends one. I might still pick him up anyways.

Looks at 25th Prime :zzz Haven't there been enough reissues of the original Prime? I was hoping for a new mold, with a trailer (unlike most new G1 Primes we get). Even Classics Voyager Prime with a newly-designed trailer would have been preferable. But this is a definite pass for me.

Roadbuster looks more like springer than he does roadbuster, JMO.

I think that's partially due to armored Cyb. Hot Rod's Springer-y head.

The colors don't help to confuse though, either.

So that's the new G2 Megs, huh? :tflaugh :emo

I could feel your heart breaking from here...although that doesn't seem to be the Hound they discussed (no Ravage or guns) so maybe there bigger molds to come for all of them...maybe.

s'okay... he'll fit better in my limited shelf space that way

(providing, of course, that you're willing to ignore the scale).

"I KNEW something was f*cking heavy back there!"

Man. The photographer can get obscene close ups of half the toys, but is completely unable to get a decent shot of Ratbat. Anyhow, I'll be picking up Ratbat v. Springer... but not Dirge v. Roadbuster. It's amazing. I want both those molds, and I like both those characters, but neither of them interest me enough to get them. The colors don't work on those molds, in my opinion.

Oh boy! shotastic Powerglide is already in line to get a redeco!

I'm really interested in these 25th Anniversary Universe Deluxes. Firstly, Cyclonus? Hell, I'd be happy if it's a reissue of his G1 toy. Secondly... Hound? And RAVAGE? Pants = tight. I fail to understand the pairing, but I look forward to an updated Ravage. I'm almost sure that the Ravage with Hound will be the Titanium Ravage from (the cancelled) Soundblaster, seeing as we're seeing a bunch of Titaniums we never thought we'd see.

I am inordinately excited for G2 Megs. Now I don't need to get a Legedns Brawl and give him purple stripes. Or I can, and say that's G2 Brawl!

Actually, I'm guessing it's Energon Ravage and Energon Strongarm/Fallback, packaged together as a Deluxe Hound vs. Ravage set.

It's been confirmed that they're both brand new molds and that the Ravage turns into a G1 Soundwave mold compatible cassette.

The pairing is based on an episode of G1, where Ravage sneaks into the Autobot headquarters in Hound, and supposedly you can attach the two together to recreate the moment (providing, of course, that you're willing to ignore the scale).
