I'm more interested in the insignia on his chest, looks like Lockdown's face. Never thought of it as organic, its just a unique head like Shockwave's (before Lugnut got introduced)
spoilers!!! The big flaw I see with Meltdown being Oilslick is that from what we have seen characters are being released more or less in the order they have appeared on the toon, I mean its not exact because alot of characters who have appeared are getting voyagers that are thinner on the ground anyway Meltdown appears in one of the last episodes in season 2 according to the synopsis and I just dont think they would have a toy released as early (relatively speaking) as what Oilslick will be when the character wouldnt be appearing until the last 4 episodes of season 2. Based on his toy release Im going with the folks who believe he will appear in Nature Calls which means he isnt Meltdown.
I thought that the episode was setting up headmasters and possibly targetmasters...as in this pic here http://toyfair08.asmzine.com/gallery/hasbro/transformers-animated/slides/IMG_9088.html
But I won't rule anything out since I have no idea why Oilslick wears an aquarium...and his head does look humaish indeed http://toyfair08.asmzine.com/gallery/hasbro/transformers-animated/slides/IMG_9230.html
eh? The episode called Headmaster deals with one human villain who incorperates some of the concepts the old Headmasters in a new way. But I hardly think its a set up for the introduction of Headmasters and Targetmasters in the classical sense.
What episode are you thinking of, is it "Society of Ultimate Viliany"? I don't remember any episode descriptions in season 2 that mention meltdown by name. Edit: Ah, "Black Friday", completely forgot about that one. I think you're right then, Oilslick is most defintely not Meltdown.
ya, after seeing the episode again today i think its more likely that Oilslick is in Nature calls. so much for the meldown theory-but he could have something to to with lockdown...
Presenting... Oilslick's head! http://toyfair08.asmzine.com/gallery/hasbro/transformers-animated/slides/IMG_9230.html
And we still don't know what it is from that picture. Doesn't look like Promethus Black or Meltdown. But Human transformers does sound like Meltdown's crew... sooooo I dunno. And I do not see Lockdown on the chest... It is a generic biker eagle-wing symbol IMHO.
It's already been posted in this thread- I still don't think it's a human head. I think he's the other bounty hunder, and has some sort of condition (or some reason for having the bubble. We won't know untill we either see the episode he's in, or his bio is posted up somewhere, or something other than pictures of his toy. Until then it's all speculation.
Until I saw these close-ups I thought it looked like Lockdown's face, quite sure I'm not the only one. But yea, its just a generic biker art thing.
He's got a really great transformation too, honestly, no good bike tf's for years and then two in one line! Kudos Hasbro.
