    Amazing how such simple modifications can solve so many issues I have with this mold.

    Gawd, I love him already.

    I wanted more Diaclone homages made into new characters, and I really hope he also gets an awesome profile like Exhaust and Loud Pedal got.

    Its amazing how a simple redeco can give a character new life. He looks like an evil Decepticon Sunstreaker clone-

    As far as his moniker is concerned, Cordon has zero pizzazz- I'm going to call him Moonraker, and the only Autobot he hates more than Sunstreaker is Prowl.

    I really like that head sculpt. I'm also interested in how they achieved the light bar in alt mode because I don't remember there being much room in the chest for anything on top of the alt mode roof.

    Not a big fan of the deco though (it looks good and all but I've never been a fan of the police deco for the Sunstreaker mold(s)) so I'm happy to save some money at this time. Awesome though for all those that have been looking forward to this.

    Looks pretty good. Extra shin detailing, too.

    That was fast from leak to show pictures!

    So...my guess is the lightbar is snap-on from the real car roof to chest.

    I'm not buying, but I'm guessing there must be some people excited for this guy.

    I am so in for this. I didn't like how bland Sunstreaker looks, it's weird how a simple deco makes the mold look good , it's good but still a bit blame. Reprolabels, do your stuff!

    But that head! It looks so much better! If they bundle a Sunstreaker version with this guy I'll go back and pick that one up too!

    Boo red eyed Autobots! Disappointing that they went so far as to give him red eyes but did not finish the job with a nice purple tampo.

    Easy pass for me because I want the red redeco. Shocked that didn't come first. I mean he was the first Transformer!

    The red redeco will probably be a Decepticon and have a dumb name like Rearblaze.

    *Sigh*

    It looks interesting but the $140 is really a deal-breaker for me.
