Transformers Movie toys
With Revenge of the Fallen only 3 months away I thought I'd start a thread devoted to the toys,both from the first live action Movie and the new one.

Those wishing to avoid spoilers for the new movie should tread carefully,particularly the Jetfire link. You have been warned!

Better late than never!
I've already got one ROTF toy,a loose Deluxe Soundwave which is decent though I haven't worked out the full transformation for either of the alternate modes yet.

Re: Transformers Movie toys
I think I'll be giving ROTF Megatron a miss unless he eventually gets reduced in price by at least 50% because he's definitely not worth £45.
The tank mode is an improvement on that ugly mess of a jet mode the original Movie Megatron had but the robot mode sucks balls,I hope it looks better onscreen.

Re: Transformers Movie toys
I think this Megatron is definitely better than the first weird space craft thingy. I didn't get the 1st movie Megatron but I'll definitely get this and looking at the colours, he should be easy to repaint to get him to look like a bad ass robot.
Bcm - do let me know what you think bout soundwave, I'm not exactly sold on it.
I have already pre-ordered Leader class Prime, Bumblebee, Sideswipe & Starscream.......giving up on all the constructicons.......
Oh & Jetfire is a must, I think the plane mode is awesome!!!

Re: Transformers Movie toys
I think Soundwave is OK,the robot mode is nice and poseable and the communications satellite and spaceship alt modes are well suited to the Movie universe but for me it's dragged down by the paint apps,all that grey plastic looks very dull and it's a shame because there's a lot of nice details so if you don't mind repainting it I'd say get one,otherwise give it a miss.
I agree about the Constructicons,Supreme Class Devastator is a ripoff considering the vehicles don't transform and all the individual ( non combining ) team members shown so far look awful.
That said the Fast Action Battler of Long Haul ( the dump truck ) did give me some hope of at least 1 Constructicon being decent as it's the only one with a traditional looking robot mode so hopefully there'll be a Deluxe or Voyager Class toy of that one in a later wave.
My top 5 toys to get from ROTF are,
1."Human Alliance" Bumblebee & Sam Witwicky
2.Leader Class Optimus Prime
3.Leader Class Jetfire
4.Voyager Class Starscream
5.Deluxe Class Sideswipe
