    I don't know why, but it almost looks like a knock off to me.

    Color matches nicely... and silver on the chest is a nice touch. I WOULD be curious to see a comparison with the KO, but yeah... I'll definitely be getting this guy.

    Least exciting of the subscription figs, IMO. Just looks bland next to all the others.

    I'd be happy to see a comparison with the CHMS version, which sells for as little as $19.50 including shipping on ioffer.

    Not bad but it has nowhere to go on my shelf. I'll end up selling mine once he arrives, anyone interested?

    there is no CHMS version, there is a Knock Off made by a group calling themselves CHMS. FP & Hasbro are under no obligation to match them is price.

    I'd really like to see images of Ultra Mammoth!

    Neat. I always digged the Sideswipe mold so I'll be picking this up. Already have Universe Dragstrip, so why not? Might try to track down a genuine Henkei Wildrider too.

    saying "version" makes it sound like a legitimate product, it is a knockoff. nothing more.

    I'd like to see what the sub head would look like on the animated body. Any 3rd party want to give us a stunticon head set .... cough... cough.... Dr. Wu?

    Well, no, it's not a legitimate product... But that still doesn't make it any less a "CHMS version of Breakdown".

    I'd be more than happy to take that guy off your hands!:) 

    With all this info coming out about Breakdown, could it be that he is the first in the line-up to ship out?

    Speculations...

    Honestly, I really like the Botcon 2011 version way more than this one. Ditto with the 2010 G2 deco version.

    Still gonna get it, mind.

    We saw Circuit first. Scourge is probably next as we saw him with BD and Circuit.

    I can dig him, was a great mold the first couple times and I don't mind a 4th as well. Though the only minor thing is I wish the head wasn't so squarish but it is G1 accurate.

    I really wish there was $$$$in the budget to make a G1 cartoon head mold but in well. I'm just happy to get some more Stunticon love.
