Not a real review, as we've more than likely all seen the original Barricade toy. Plus I pretty much suck are reviewing things.

So instead here's a few pics of this new figure. Sorry if they're not of great quality, but they were all taken very quickly.

Poor old Barricade's a Security vehicle now rather than a Police one.

Thats actually pretty nifty.
Movie-verse Alt Camshaft?

 

thanks for sharing. Much prefer the movie colors, especially on frenzy.

 

The grey on the figure looks pretty dull at first, but once its out of the pack, its actually pretty good.

 

Ug-ly.

Well, not hideous, but not eye-pleasing either.

 

From the pics, seems like a pretty weak repaint

 

Nothing special IMHO. The first deco is much better to me.

 

Not bad. I loved the way he looked when I saw him up close. He's not high on my priorities though, unless I see him for a reasonable price around these parts.

 

mmm looks nice but I prefer the original version

 

Is the punching arm on the right now? I just see the box having it on the right instead of the left

 

Nope. If you look at the robot pics, you can see the little blue tab on his left arm at the elbow joint.

 

+1 for RIRFIB.




Yeah, he'd make a good Camshaft.

 

So now Barricade is a mall cop? Ouch.

 

He shall henceforth be called Rent-A-Cade.

 

looks like one of them 'water' terrorrists that have been on the news  

 

He's gotta make a living some how now that the all-spark thing's a bust. But I just see visions of him running away from the autobots with big crates of grocery he stole from the supermarket he was meant to be guarding.


But anyway, I might get him, seeing how I liked him in the movie and all the dex Barricade disappeared overnight here.

 

RIBFIR

I like all the blue on him, bot mode looks better than I imagined.

If they redid the Black Barricade with the blue that would be joyous

 

I like his bio. Lead into TF2?

 

He's ugly. Hasbro could have done a much better job ob the repaint.

 

NMPT, i doubt it is tftm2 related, since it is too early inproduction for it to have any solid script ideas
