Not all that impressed as a toy but again I'm almost 100% sure it's one of the preview/protoform figures like they did for the first movie so there's really no reason to be jumping the gun on ROTF toy's.

I think it's a protoform too, I like it, I loved seeing variations of the characters in last year's movie line. I LOVE the protoform Optimus design/figure, one of my favorite Primes, so unique, so different, absolutely killer in the metal-esque color scheme. Now I wonder if Soundwave actually will turn into a truck, because if he does, this is not the only toy we will see of him in the movie. Knowing how Hasbro works, I would not be surprised if we saw this one in even more G1 based colors eventually.

Looks like there is a generous amount of articulation too, I wish the head was molded in blue as opposed to grey with blue being painted on. I would hate to get paint scratched off of mine. I wish the forearms weren't hollow either.
