I went to Walmart yesterday and they had Voyagers on sale for $18 so I got Ratchet, Ironhide, Starscream, and the Fallen. They also had Deluxes on sale for $9.

I think I've got all of the in scale Autobots now except for Jolt, who I don't think has released yet.

No doubt it's the first of several repaints/retools.
If the final release pics show this version also has some chromed parts I could be tempted to pay out for an import otherwise I might wait a bit to see what the other versions look like.
 
Here's some pics of a Deluxe Sideways I had repainted recently,

This one was something of a proto for my buddy as he's doing another Sideways for ebay that will have the silver pinstripes on the car mode and a few other extra details but I'm happy enough with this one which looks a hell of a lot better than when I first removed it from the packaging.

The man who did that is awesomely talented! :monkey5

Funny story, actually. That was posted as fanart by John Nizzi on his site, and someone posted it on Micheal Bay's forums. He saw it and liked it so much that he ended up hiring Nizzi to not only have Long Haul in the movie, but to design either a few or all Constructicons (not sure which of the two it was)!

A lot of other concept art leaked too, though. It's late now but I can dig through my folders and post them all tomorrow if you want. :)

Really? I didnt know that, good on for nizzi!

And modest as well it seems :lol

I suppose this could be considered a cheap shot at the other designers but I think it's ironic that the best Decepticon design from either movie was originally fan art.

This new release has a different headsculpt (revealed mouthpiece) other than the added blaster, I would still prefer the current leader class OP headsculpt...

I got 3 of them by the way...:rotfl

Really? I had no idea, where did you see this?

As RA88 said a few posts back artist Josh Nizzi posted the Long Haul design as fanart on his own website, the image found it's way to Michael Bay's forums where the director saw it and liked it enough that he hired him.
 
Finally picked up the HA Bumblebee for a price that wasn't ridiculous-- hence I didn't get him at TRU-- and it's an awesome fig. Hope that I'll be able to find and get all of the HA releases.
 
For any Canadians that are looking for HA BumbleBee, $39.99 at walmart..much better price.
