This is a bit late, but I've only seen a lot of the pictures just now.
Some thoughts:
Cosmic looks really light, and doesn't look like big bang at all. Low hopes for it, but it might be a better way to get R2F I guess. But yeah, this one is extremely discouraging for me as to the weight of metal fury beys.
Fang: Well it's in the wrong mode. Eugh.
LDrago Destructor: Interested to see how heavy it is, and if the plastic wheel does anything to improve its attack, but eh, I doubt it'll be a big change. F: S was terrible, but I'd still take it over LF. Bleh.
Variares: This one I'm interested in, but I'm concerned about those red things being obstructive (as the plastic parts of TT's one were not obstructive due to the mechanism). Interested weight wise, and hey, maybe it could end up being defensive haha.
Beat: Beat could be good, if they've increased the weight, it could have some real potential again. Definitely one I'd look into. The no TH170 thing is still incredibly annoying of course, AD145 is a great part but man, that's a shame for Hasbro bladers.
Vulcan: Okay this is a really old one. I just found it amusing how the in-pack image has it painted while the actual wheel isn't. GJ Hasbro.
Scythe: I left the most promising till last. This one *could* be really, really, really good. Hopefully the weight will increase, and it won't suffer too much additional recoil as a result of the fixed metal "PC Frame". It also comes with EDS, which is nice. I may, *may* pick one up if I see one, and it is probably the one so far that I am most eager to see testing on, and were I limited to hasbro stuff, it would almost certainly be my first Metal Fury buy.
So yeah, obviously it's all gonna depend on weight, but Scythe and Beat look promising.
Hopefully Scythe is good so hasbro bladers at least get something out of this horrible mess hasbro have foisted upon them (though that risks destroying what little balance their metagame has left). That's if they can find it past the three billion Cosmic Pegasus that will be on shelf in every store that has stock, of course.
