Breakdown's robot colours remind me of Armada McDonald's Red Alert.

Black Prime combined with Jetfire would look pretty, well, black. And imposing. But mainly black.

Dirge would make a good Armada Thrust homage.

I'm not entirely sold on Bludgeon, but Dirge and Breakdown look worth getting.

I think I may have to partake of Bludgeon, I dont really like the movie lines themselves but he looks like it might be worth it.

It's the one ROTF toy I want.
Dirge looks passage though. As does Breakdown.
All 3 feel more like Universe with wibbly bits than the usual movie style of mince.

I am liking the look of Bludgeon a lot. He definitely looks like he is much more aesthetically a Universe toy who has snuck into the wrong line. I think he is both a nice looking design in his own right, and a very nice tribute to the old Bludgeon toy.
Dirge, now that I have seen pictures of his fighter mode I am swithering on a little. It looks like someone on the design team wanted to get as close as the could to an AV8B without actually having to pay Boeing a license fee. It looks a bit square in all the wrong places and the odd v-shape of the stabilisers just doesn't feel right to me. It is a credible attempt though, and it may perhaps grown on me. The humanoid mode looks great, which may more than make up for the limitations of its fighter mode.
Hmm. I've just noticed that the two movie toys I am thinking of picking up of the remainder of the line are the two that look least like they "belong" in the line ...

When I first saw Bludgeon Ithought it was great then some of the first leaked photos emerged and I was a little less taken, now seeing the latest official photos I'm back to wanting it.
It does give of a slightly Waspinator-ish vibe doesn't it, or is that just me?

I'd really have to see the fighter mode before I felt that I had a proper view on it. I'd like to believe that they have fixed the cripling flaw of the smaller Starscream (namely the hands hanging out of the aft section of the fighter mode), but I am less than entirely hopeful at this point in time.

Same here.
The more I think of it, the more I think of Jetfire's underside in jet mode. Starscream will probably be more like that. Though I hope not.

From the smaller photos shown at Botcon and I think online since it was the robot mode that I was concerned by. These new photos give me more confidence about that so I now have higher hopes for this.

I think I'd give it four out of five. The most fun toy of the line. It's only flaw for me is that it seems like the back just got chopped off.

Ransack is still my favourite so far.
Mind you, the Scouts this year have been excellent!

I just did a little sick in my mouth and remembered why I haven't bought any ROTF toys.

Hmm. Between those and the other pictures I have seen on the net of his fighter mode (or the pile of kibble hanging beneath wings as if looked to me) I can safely say that this toy very much doesn't appeal to me - especially considering the price point it will be at.
