    Is that an entirely new mold? I'm not recognizing any of the parts
    This is the link (which sends you nowhere), but it'll appear if you already had it in your wishlist

    ETA: Thoughts after seeing the other pics. Really nice execution. I'll probably try to get two. I could see them using the mold for Drift pretty easily.

    Interesting - no combiner kibble, no combiner hand. He's the only PotP deluxe that can't combine.

    Counterpunch could be a hell of a pretool for Pointblank. Targetmasters for WfC?

    Could be Nightbeat and/or Siren on the other side, too

    Dayum I was wondering how'd they pull off another 2 in 1 characters but holy shit man. I'm guessing Counterpunch just needs the visor flipped up and someone forgot. Man I wasn't interested before but shoot between the Prime Master and that sexy sexy alt mode, now I have a erhm MIGHT NEED!!!

    Good point! Well spotted. I'd be happy if this guy is a pretool for the both of 'em.

    I can see him at least sharing some engineering and design. And yes, I've been saying Targetmasters for WfC Pt1 all along.

    Looks like they kept the visor flip for the face change from G1 even! Great update, I need two! One thing I don't like is the gun. Looks like he only comes with the Autobot gun. Ah well, I'm sure Nonneff will provide!

    Edit: ah, same.arms on both bots but a fist rotation to give a different look. Nice little touch there. Also avoids hollow arms.

    Last year I put together my speculative Titans Return II 18 month toyline idea that actually had Siren/Pointblank/Punch listed as planned retools of one another, so the idea has been in my head for awhile.

    I see potential for an Armada Blurr repaint, retool.

    High five! (Redeemable on this actually happening and not just looking super likely)

    Target masters would sure pull me back in and it makes sense, Takara already started the work.for them.

    Looks good, of the set though he’s the one I’ll be least bothered if I can’t get. If he shows up first I’ll at least grab one as potential trade fodder for Repugnus.

    LOOKS AMAZING.

    Man, what a fresh take on him, it's great to see an ACTUAL HUMAN vehicle after all those years in generations.

    Hot damn, I wasn't expecting pictures this soon! And sure enough, he's his own mold, too! What a happy surprise! :)
