This is not for the movie sequel or what not. This is showcasing the "prototypes" for the upcoming line of Transformer toys. I thought this was better to look at than some bad NSFW pics from a unmentioned person. This action figures come from the upcoming series Transformers Animated. I am not a fan of the plot or set up of making them more like super heroes and less like robots fighting robots but these toys look frickin' sweet! Get ready...there are a LOT of them!



Original Autobots




Optimus Prime - Cybertronian mode



Optimus Prime - Earth mode




Bumblebee - He kind of resembles his old VW Bug shape which is nice.




Ratchet




Grimlock - Isn't he a lot of people's fav?




Slag




Original Decepticons




Megatron - Cybertronian (he will change by end of the series and the 2nd picture isn't the change?)




Starscream




Black Arachnia




Now for the NEW Autobots...



Bulkhead (Military Vehicle) - Lumbering lug to love





Bulkhead (Military Vehicle) - Test version




Prowl (Motorcycle) - Token Ninja




NEW Decepticons



Blitzwing (TRIPLECHANGER)- Multiple faces like Man-E-Faces from He-Man




Lugnut (Bomber Plane) - My personal favorite AWESOMENESS! Here's hoping they don't mess up his paint.




Lockdown (Hot Rod?) - Nothing






And the BEST for last...




Soundwave...yes that is a frickin' GUITAR! Who cares about the car!




If you were interested in series, here is a trailer of the show. Doesn't look too bad!




What did you think? Doesn't look too bad at all and same with the action figures. I don't know about you but these look MUCH better than the movie action figures so I can't wait! These will be in my collection, not sure about yours...

Which are your favorites? And which console you think this will spin off onto? Wii and DS only?
