    No shoulder cannon in that Scrapmetal art either. Weird.

    Override GTS isn't the only one missing. The entire Cybertron Defense Team isn't there.

    And that artwork for yellow Scrapmetal is pretty interesting. Perhaps Hasbro caved and decided to (eventually) give us the Galaxy Force repaints? Because they said at Botcon that they were going to do a unique repaint, but this can't be it.

    Swerve's is pretty funny,,,

    (BTW Those are their typos, it looks like they missed a line when entering that text)

    So he started out looking like Crumplezone and after 16 generations of improvement he ends up looking like,,,,CLOCKER?

    I wonder if he's envious?:sly: 

    Oh and Swindle is just nuckin' FUTS!

    I have a theory regarding the Yellow Scrapmetal art.

    Hasbro probably did have plans to release the three "Rumbles", but the idea was most likely scrapped and they opted for the single red one instead. But they probably got as far as the boxart for the other two, and decided to post the unreleased art on the site.

    There is another scout in the Walmart computer named "Hightail" that could go with the yellow Scrapmetal art. This reminds me of when the art for Cannonball was put up on the TFCC website before the toy was announced.

    Infosaur's post made me realize something: Hasbro's web team needs some improvement. Swindle and Swerve's "bios" are actually their secret Cyber Key info.

    I'm sure a couple there's a couple more like that.
