    Meh, nothing new outside of seeing a physical form of the toy. I missed Stockade last line, so I may pick Gears up this time.

    Got Stockade and I like the mold, color scheme is alright. But a good mold nonetheless

    If you missed Stockade last time around, the mold itself is definitely worth owning.

    I already have Stockade and prefer his color scheme, so this is a pass for me.

    Love it, though I'm getting a crazy Reboot vibe from that artwork.

    Ah, excellent, so here's what I got so far as far as mold re-use in the movie line is concerned.

    Bumblebee Concept Camaro has been used to make Bumblebee, Stealth Bumblebee, AllSpark Bumblebee, Premium Bumblebee, RotF Remold Bumblebee, Cannon Bumblebee, Cliffjumper and a few packaging varients from the first movie line such as Bumblebee Movie Scenes and Bumblebee 3-Pack Exclusive.

    Optimus Prime leader class was used for the following: Optimus Prime, Nightwatch Optimus Prime, Premium Optimus Prime, RotF Remold Optimus Prime and a few packaging varients for exclusives.

    Voyager Optimus Prime was featured four times, Optimus Prime, First-Strike Optimus Prime, Robovision Optimus Prime (The Premium Equivalent) and Optimus Prime RotF.

    Plus they've repainted Swindle, Dredwing, Ironhide, Dropkick, Stockade, Ratchet, Jazz, Bonecrusher, Barricade, Starscream, Megatron, The Fallen, Blackout, Brawl Deluxe, Brawl Leader, Breakaway, all of the Scout Class from the first movie line, all the Real Gears, there are plans for repaints of the first wave of Scout Class figures from the RotF line and all of the Legends class figures have recieved a repaint for the most part with a few exceptions fom RotF. So what's left? Landmine, Payload, Incinerator, Jetfire, Skids and Mudflap, Arcee from Movie 1 hasn't recieved a full on repaint from Hasbro yet. Am I missing anything?

    Can't wait to own this one, I dig Stockade and Autobot Gears will make an excellent addition to my Movie collection.

    Love the mold, but the colors are not doing anything for me this time. Pass.

    Gears looks interesting, and better in alt-mode. I still probably won't get him, as the bot-mode colors bother me.

    Cannon Bumblebee has enough differences that he's considered a new mold. Only his legs and head are from previous molds.

    Leader RotF Optimus Prime is a completely new mold, and nowhere near a remold of TF1 Leader Prime. It's like comparing the two Animated Deluxe class Optimus Prime figures (Cybertronian and Earth), but with even more obvious differences.

    I think cannon bb's head is a brand new mold. If you look closely, you can see a movie accurate neck not on the preview BB.

    There was never a repaint of the camcorder, Zoom Out. Instead there were three versions of the mobile phone.

    It could be, but it does look the same, imo. If it is a different head, it just adds another thing on to the long list of differences between Cannon BB and the other Deluxe BB molds.
