    Is there a faction symbol anywhere on him? I've just assumed he's an Autobot....

    I don't like the brown/bronze or whatever it is, it doesn't mesh with the rest of the color scheme too well.

    I'm not crazy about the gray parts, but overall I like the mold and will probably get him.

    I'm wondering if this is a test shot or something. So many niggling things that just seem not right - no "detail" paint apps like eyes and no faction symbols for a start.

    There's a faction symbol right behind the cockpit. It's kinda hard to see, it's that silver color they used a lot for the movie toys.

    It looks... alright. I'm not sure what it is, but something is throwing me off. I think it has something to do with the brown... just doesn't fit the rest of the color scheme IMO. However, I may decide to get him once I see him in person. Sometimes paint apps can look more garish on a computer screen than they actually do IRL. Still, he'll probably be low on my priority of purchase list.

    im actually starting to get kinda worried at the amount of repaints in my collection....
    ...still gonna pick this up like!
    i suppose i should try to branch out more and try to find more original molds- mabey internet shopping

    anyhow- does anyone know how hasbro arrive at the characters for their molds?
    are they restricted to copyright issues or are they catering for the fanbase?
    cos nobody ive ever met would say a treadbolt repaint was top of their wish list!

    Maybe in this case, its not so much the character as much as it is the mold that will help sell this toy

    and its a fantastic mold, dont get me wrong, just seems to me that cloudburst or someone would have been a better character.

    on a side note, ive just realised that none of the pretenders have ever been realised as new characters in any series- does anyone know if theres any plans for a new take on the pretenders?
    mabey for next years 25th aniversery? don showed how cool they can be in stormbringer, with thunderwing and ESPECIALLY bludgeon

    I like the colours used on it. The only thing putting me off it right now, is the brown plastic used on it. Isn't that the stuff that can also get GPS?
