So this guy:
Is awesome and has a hair ball problem.
And does the minicon turn into a robot chicken? Cause it looks like a chicken to me.

I guess we shouldn't think about the end of the series but instead appreciate what we'll still be getting from it. Poor Strongarm doesn't get a figure. Hopefully she and some Decepticons with Autobot Minicons also come along. Could be a fun little line. And Warrior Grimlock may finally be in scale.
First hasbro has to see how the new line goes, sales wise, then, if it succeeds, it can be full steam ahead.

Funny you should say that. If the deployed stays where it is in vehicle mode, the car essentially lays a minicon egg.
I'm kind of digging Crazybolt. I also think the deployed gimmick works better for him and Overload than it did for the first two.

I like that one of the Minicon sphere is a spitting image of one of the old Microchange/ Kissplayers Sparkbot / Beast Wars EggBot toys. (the bird one).
Overload looks quite good inside the parametres the line sets itself.
I will have to stroke my chin a bit about the new smaller scale main character toys - if I like them may depend on if they are the same size as Combiner Wars Legends class or bigger.
I'd actually like them to be the smaller size. Not that I dislike scouts - but the other size is more of the default size for that sort of thing than scout size is.
Over all Interesting and I'll buy some if they sell them cheaply enough.

I am getting this for sure, though not sure if I will wait for a sale or not. Not clearance for sure, but TRU makes a sale often enough that I will at least wait a bit. No rush but these are sure to find a home with me. Also, that Grimlock armour is genius, it turns RID grimlock into AOE grimlock!
And man, I cant wait to know what bonus figures cane be made from next year's new minicons.

Ya all this looks AWWWWWZZZUUUMM!!!!
My jaw hit the desk when I read "Commander Class" and saw all the armor. I love the stoopid deployers too. And all the minicons. Damnit! So much to buy.
How awesome will Commander class Grim and Prime be with the Legion toys?

Well we don't know how big they will be, could be that they are akin to the foreign market cyber series...

They do look to be a nice size class that's for sure. And the fact that they come with weapons: YES!

Ball joints are always a tell to figures in this size range. I think it's fare to guess these are on par with previous Basic, Scout, and Commander Class size.

I can agree with you about being excited for these. Pity we don't really have any weapon minicons to show off here. Those things are really cool looking!

Man, when I saw that Optimus Hammer combinations I was like
And the Grimlock armour being AOE homage was super sweet.
The one thing I find a bit too bad though is that t seems Optimus is not much more than a retooled upscale of the legion class with his feet and arms transforming the exact same way.

I guess OP would either be an upscale or a down scale. Maybe he is somewhere in-between. The others seem to be straddling that line of combined transformery bits.

Overload and Crazybolt look cool, but unless they get Warrior class figures they'll hafta be passed on.

Based on his shape and a semi-official leaked storyboard, I'd guess he's some kind of spitting lizard/toad that breathes fire and spits minicons.
