Maybe I missed it, but was it mentioned why the big hands with Blitzwing?  I know that they are "turrets" or something in the alt modes.  Other than being just the energon gimmick?  They just seem out of place, then again he is like Voyager size...  Also, the fact that Motormaster can become an incomplete, skeletal Menasor without any of the other figures seems an odd choice.

I think they're going for the rather unique Menasor transformation from "Starscream's Brigade" which featured Motormaster becoming Menasor's "skeleton" after jumping off a cliff followed by the other 4 Stunticons attaching to Motormaster's limbs while in vehicle mode - it was a pretty cool spectacle. The transformation was quickly followed by Menasor stomping Bruticus who in turn just got done mopping up Devastator.

Most 3rd Party Menasor/Stunticon releases have featured the same transformation gimmick which has been easy to pull off by using Motormaster's trailer to provide the additional mass.

Blah.  They kind of remind me of the hands for the RID 2001 Prime/Magnus combiner.

They do!

They remind me of Armada Demolisher. But honestly with the price increase I'm done getting Transformers.

@ARHaslage It wasn't mentioned other than they are more combinable weapons and they are excited to see what fans do with them.

I think the Menasor will be success if the figure is solid and well articulated. We shall see.
