too bad i couldnt even come to tfcon 

 

What the heck is this Universe Dak series R.E.V. figure? I know what the mold is, but I've never seen one with those colors.

 

It was the custom figure for the convention customization class. It was a combination of the RiD Spychanger REV and the Targetmaster REV from G1.

 

Photos!



After I got back I went digging through my RID box and found my REV (still sealed.. to open or not..) and here is a photo of him with the new Universe REV. Before I left TFCon I snagged one of the boxes from the trash. Not only was it a nice way to store the toy (which was still wet), but going with the quality of the custom a quick coloring of the head red and the box now matches the toy. And best of all the text "SUNSTREAKER" can be easily turned into "REV" just by coloring most of the text with a black marker.

For me the Custom class was the best part of TFCon and very much hope to do it again next year.

Edit: clarification

 

You win.

 

Looks pretty cool. I need a better paying job.  

 

REV =  

 

oh, relax. it was just a simple art class.

 

He just named the custom class character with my name in it cause I taught the class.

 

I've just bought all three UM armors, can't wait to put my hands on these.

 

A Yellow Repaint of Universe Sideswipe/Sunstreaker mold. Mm..For a second there, I thought I saw Tigertracks:

I noticed ton the TFCon Boards Gallery that the suit case full of Energon Cubes is missing one - are they all like that and if so why ?

Also I heard that there's more plugs than there is holes to put them in - again why ?

 

Mine is. No idea. Don't care about it missing a cube It's the armor I care about.

Same deal with the plugs I used 4 red ones on the shoulder pieces. No clue where the other ones are supposed to go. I don't see any need to use the black ones since you can't see the holes.

 

Pretty common place procedure to give extra small pieces such as them, in case there is a computer weight malfunction, or a miscount. This prevents the customer from being short changed, and the cost of this preventative measure is negligible in comparison to returns and shipment on secondary replacement parts.

 

Yes - they all only have seven cubes in them.

 

Story wise, If you read the comic that's in the packaging, Prime/Commander used one.
