The Barricade gallery makes me really want a Classics Barricade. A repaint of Universe/Henkei Prowl would suffice, with a deco very similar to the movie version (complete with
To Punish and Enslave, of course).

Nice! Great to see some clear, close up shots of these guys. Prime is looking a little bland, but maybe the launcher set version will remedy that. They look like fun little figures.

These look really cute. I also like how they combine G1 and Movie.

I, too, would like a Classics Barricade. What I'd really love would be a new mold with a vehicle mode based on a Dodge Charger.

why does sentinel have the word chase after his name? im guessing its because hes considered a "chase figure". seen these at TRU last week and as interested as i am in picking up barricade and maybe prime i dont think these little guys are worth $5. They looked pretty chinsy & lackluster to me.

It's very much a matter of price and size. While these do look cool, I wonder if it's something that can keep my attention for very long. The fear of ending op with 30+ of these things and losing interest is a very real danger.

I have to admit, the alt modes are adorable. But the bot modes are just awful. It looks like they're all leaning backwards. The bot modes suffer because of the dumb gimmick. If these didn't have the gimmick, and instead just had really simple transformation like the old G1 Minispies, they'd be so much better.
