Very cool! Although I'm not a huge Transformers fan, I will be certain to grab this set. Oh, and as for the Optimus Prime mega, I'm guessing that he shoots with his left arm and strikes with his right. Looks to me like he has a bazooka-like gun that shoots out a tire missile, and he also has a second missile in his left hand for a second shot, because he is to short to strike properly. Even thought his bridge moves, he looks unable to strike down-wards, and get a kill.

Looks to me like prime is a launcher/striker. That large bat looking thin in his left hand couldnt be used for anything else (imo).
It does look like that double blast megatron has 3 buttons. Maybe theres a button for each projectile separately and a third fire them both at the same time?
Scorponok looks like hes going to be a beast. Hes squatting down really low, putting most of the weight of the sculpt down on the base and making the center of gravity really low. And then most of the sculpt that is there for target practice is just that skinny little tail.... Nice.

Great defense and long prod range will make him quite playable. Lets just hope he has at least 10 speed.

I'm so tired of these "Tournament Packs". They should just sell the Megas seperately like they used to without the figure inside. I know they've figured out that we fools will buy the megas to get the figs in the box, but I can still hope.....
I'm done with the tournament packs, though. I would really like to get the figs, but I'm done shelling out 20$ to get 2 figs and 2 megas that sit on a shelf, collecting dust.

Id like to have a few more SW5-24 lukes, but theres no way Im going to buy multiple mega sets at the increased price, just to get a luke figure. Not to mention the extra wampas I wouldnt want.

[glow=red,2,300]We have another 80 point mega. Optimus Prime. I wonder if they have effects like Collusus with Wolverine.

Those look awsome. the Prime-Megatron-Bonecrusher-Bumblebee look like they'll be a starter set and Megatron BM - scorponok set as a Battle Master set for a stand-alone Transformers Movie Attacktix set.

Ummm... didnt follow the link did ya? Prime and megatron (striker?) megas along with bumblebee and bonecrusher will be in a "tournament set". While the launcher megatron mega and scorponok will be in a mega pack.

Sorry. But I think they shouldn't add Battle Master figures if Mega-class figures are not tournament legal.

Since these are for the movie (about 2 months away!!!!), do you think they will hold the release until the movie toyline comes out, or will these be on shelves at the same time as the new starter?
I'm hoping to see atleast the Starter on shelves in my area within the next couple weeks, if not boosters as well, but, IMO, I don't think we'll see these until the beginning of June with the rest of the movie toys.

Noooooo! I need to have the tourny set. The future of my life depends on it. Well, I just hope it comes out within a month or so......... so, any word on the OP striker/shooter? (Is he a uppercut striker and a shooter, or is it 2 missles for shootin, and one is in his hand) And also any word on the Megatron in the tourny w/ OP? (Do you pull that "cord" and something happens to his hand, I'd like it to spin, so the attack would be totally sweet, but that is just me...)
