Wreck-Gar's nice, I guess, show accurate and all, I think he has an action feature somewhere. Lugnut... eh, didn't need a repaint. WASPINATOR? OHSHIT I WANT ONE.

Samurai Prowl's good, too, I think I may get rid of my normal prowl for him.

I was already getting Prowl, I suppose.

Waspy is 'so cool.'

Wreck-Gar's vehicle mode looks...dare I say it...PLAYSKOOLISH.

Pass on Lugnut.

I'd rather have a Leader Class Lugnut than a repaint that may or may not be in the show.

Waspy...rocks!!!!

Prowl isn't too bad.

Wreck Gar does look a bit playskoolish, but I want ot know where his faction symbol is. It's dumb if he doesn't get one since he used both in the episode, but then again these are the same people who threw a decpticon logo on Lockdown.

Ehh, marketing.

Atomic Lugnut's a neat idea for a repaint, but that's not a mould that needed one, so I'ma pass there.

Wreck-Gar's really nifty, had been waiting for that one. Love the robot mode, strange looking gimmick tho'.

Samurai Prowl's the favourite here, I'd been waiting on this over regular flavour Prowl, and am I ever glad I did.

I kinda like the Atomic Lugnut just for name and theme. Atomic sounds a lot cooler than "Powerlinx". Besides, that's a pretty decent new paintjob. Might be sold.

Prowl, Waspy, and Wreck-Gar, though, all of them I'll probably need.

I'm kinda glad I got regular Prowl while I could, since I remain unconvinced that this new version can assume the unarmored look, though I'll likely get it regardless. Waspinator doesn't grab me like he seems to be doing with everyone else, but maybe that'll change when I see him in-package (I'm still completely confounded by his name situation, and the new body doesn't help that). Wreck-Gar's been Want for a while now, and seeing him there only increases that desire. Face sculpt looks great. Atomic Lugnut...eh, I like the toy, and character, and that's a nice repaint, but I don't know if I want TWO Lugnuts who are only the proper size to fight Voyager Bulkhead.

Stand Atomic Lugnut on top of regular Lugnut. That should be about the right size...

Overall I really haven't cared for any of the Animated toys. Just not a fan of the style. But I have to say I love the look of that Waspinator figure. And I like the bulk Prowl's samurai armor adds to the figure, although the face still looks weird to me because his head is so oblong.

I'm digging all of these in one way or another. But yes, Wreck-gar's truck mode is a little Playskoolish, though I dig the heck out of his bot mode. Does Waspinator remind anyone else of BM Buzzsaw? But better?

I agree, actually, the wings look worryingly fragile and he has Movie Jazz hands.

Heh. Jazz hands.
