    Zoom Out: His head's got a design cue of Dinobot 2 but a face similar to Animated Blitzwing
    Booster X10: Basically Device Label Laserbeak
    Longview: He's got exaggerated superhero proportions
    Meantime: May or may not mess up your nervous system like the one that got onto Sam's wrist in Dark of the Moon

    Real Gear is a great sub-line. I recently completed my set of all eight moulds (I only care about decos if they define important characters) and made sure to have four in each faction. I love how they hark back to the classic thing of transforming into everyday appliances, use lots of transparent plastic, and gave me Unicron Trilogy designs without even realizing it (it makes sense though as they do not have a live-action movie aesthetic at all). Only complaint about them is their silly word-letter-number names but I just simplify those.

    Fun Fact: Transformers was originally comprised of two separate toylines from Takara: Diaclone, which provided vehicles that transformed into mecha for tiny figures to ride in (aka most of the Autobots and Starscream), and Microman, which provided 1:1 recreations of household objects that could turn into robots (aka most of the Deceptions and Bumblebee).
    This series is basically a modern, American-made version of the Microman toys.

  • @afzalhakimbinzairini956

    Oh yeah, I remember these figures back in 2007 or 2008 because I remember back in the days, I was at a shopping mall with my family, looking fo school supplies and books, and then suddenly in the middle of the shopping mall, I saw a Transformers Toy Booth, and when I go saw it, I saw these figures and the characters from the 2007 movie tie in video game. I saw Swindle, Dropkick, Dreadwing, Payload, and many others Autobot Drones from the games. To me, these figures and the drones figures from the Transformers 2007 video game are probably some of the most creative and interesting ideas Hasbro has ever made. And I actually I do miss the good old days of Transformers toys with tough and strong material, fun gimmicks and electronic functions, and classic auto morph gimmicks. But whoever, with the most recent figures from Studio Series and War For Cybertron Trilogy line, they start to go back with strong and tough materials and some neat transformation tricks that was very absant from The Age Of Extinction and Prime Wars Trilogy toyline.
