    Given how most people have classics mirage I would prefer a mask reference over mirage. Though they could also do the diaclone red mirage for the fans.

    I like the sandstorm mold so much I might have to buy a 2nd deco....i was iffy on tailpipe but I think im gonna have to pass, his lower legs are paper thin...or atleast the promo shot looks that way.

    I will own drag strip, no questions. Bought.

    I thought the same thing. What makes that even better is the fact that the Formula race car member of the Race Team Minicons was also called Mirage.

    I like fireburst prime more than the normal voyager - but I still think i'm getting the 2-pack w/ comettor instead.

    I want two things.

    1. More Decepticon HA's.
    2. HA's with actual hands. It doesn't look like DA's claws can turn about, which is unforutnate. One of my major gripes with that line is the hand articulation, or the lack there of. Like Gangsta Hammerhand(Who can't even pretend to be busting caps since he has to hold his weapon in "I'll break my wrist or shoot myself like this." style. And Back "My hands I have them, see? They're just molded in the wrong direction!" Fire. Grah. I want proper hands. For the love of god Hasbro. Give me moar. Whirl and Tailpipe at least have hands. I shall nab these two. And the other two. Because even without proper hands, Dragstrip looks badass.

    It's already yellow. :D 

    I think a number of these HA basics are ripe for great MASK repaints, maybe Hasbro would even be generous enough to make some new heads for the dudes...

    I dunno if dragstrip could be held like a shield. Unless that mode is mistransformed, I just cant see it being held like shield. Im wondering if you can spread those blades out and finnagle a crossbow mode out of him...doesnt look like they could clear the tires though even if you could spread them out like that.

    although if he IS a shield I could see him snapping onto a forearm, but not a hand. Unless his mechtech peg can be shifted about of course.

    Oh and why did they photoshop his clip points in vehicle mode?...its squared out for some reason.....

    Drag Strip looks really, really cool (even if I'm not quite sure about his weapon mode).

    Yeah, the Shockwave looks very blue on my screen and seems like has other various paint differences from the one I have. Granted promo photos usually tend to be better painted to bring out detail, but I think it's worth looking into to make sure there isn't a repaint before assuming it's just the regular Shockwave.

    ....After all we are already getting a repaint of Prime. Why not Shocky as well?

    I saw shockwave in the store and his box art showed him as being more blue despite the packaged toy's actual color.

    It's bad photoshopping. It's the same images you'll see on the back of the boxes of the one's out now. He's just getting re-released in this wave as filler.

    I honestly don't recall ever seeing a green helicopter in this line-up. Either I missed something, or that's a repaint slated for a later wave (would make sense, since this is the first wave for the brown helicopter).

    That would be interesting, but I don't think it's all that likely to happen. We'll just have to wait and see.

    ^ Well, Over-Run/Spastic might be an even better match. But this is loads cheaper, and has a better headsculpt IMO.
