So yes, they were out of scale.
You are terrible

Agreed, the prototype looks better there. Oh and Grimlock's dino mouth can open in combined mode

My main gripe as well. To be elaborated on later...

I love that part of him too!

Yes yes yes yes yes

Because they are finally doing the pretender shell concept again and doing it apparently very well. I am super stoked for that class!!

I'm actually really disappointed I read 5 or 6 pages before I saw this. I have been waiting for you to punify Scream as a torso for forever

For. The. Win.
Now I need them to do a Waverider shell so I can have the G1 and PotP shells next to each other like Skullgrin!
And now I suddenly wish they would do something similar with Gunrunner and Roadgrabber. those 2 could have some awesome modern toys!
And now for my actual thoughts on the reveals:
Decoy suits: Could not be happier at all. I will buy every single one. No questions.
Legends: Slash is great and will go good with Beachcomber. So far, I am pleased. And as Cobotron said: DINORIDERS!!!
Deluxe: the dinobots look great. I am stoked for those 4. All the deluxes in fact look pretty sweet. No complaints at all with them.
Voyager: Starscream still gets on me a bit since he sacrificed some potential transformation stuff to become a torso and at this point nothing indicates the other 2 84 jets finally getting the voyager treatment either. Hun-Gurr sort of disappoints me some. He looks incredibly basic, and while it's not like he had to transform much to begin with, he feels a bit dull in bot to beast mode. I will get him for Abominus, but I feel a bit bored by him.
Leaders: I think Optimus is my favorite so far. His Prime robot mode is absolutely great, Orion looks awesome, and the alt mode is good too. He will be my PotP version of Optimus and most likely my definitive G1 Prime.
Rodimus still looks great, but I think Optimus beats him. Still a buy.
Primal... I am so torn with this figure at the moment. More judgement shall not be passed until we see him in hand and painted, but he was not what I was expecting at all. Optimal mode looks pretty good, and I love that they are including the hoverboard thing. But the deluxe... why wouldn't they have made a beast mode? His beast mode is basically a head flip, waist rotation, and some flaps to expose robot mode parts. They could have done the gorilla mode somehow and made him turn into a box. That is a disappointment. But I voted for him, and he still looks cool in the mode I would primarily display him in, so I am still in. Just not impressed with how they went about with him at this point
