    He looks like a great figure, but I still don't like the head.:(  I just LOVE the vehicle mode colors! I may pick him up.

    This is the reason I haven't bought Sideways. While if I'm honest I prefer Sideways' head, the red midsection on his looks really cheap. As Dead End is supposed to have red in him it doesn't look as bad.

    And the alt mode looks a lot better in those colours.

    Do you have the packaging? I was wondering if they still refer to Dead End as a creepy vampire-like guy even the other Decepticons are disgusted by and wary of? I liked that idea for the character :)

    i like this i may get it...
    Can you post a pic with sideways's head on it???

    I think it would look ok and could be a cooler looking (upgrade scan w/ changed bot mode) sideways. (the reason "changed botmode"is because he is not to accurate to the cg model so if his botmode changed (my imagination) he could be more accurate (again in my own little happy tf world).

    It's a good thing I don't focus on buying all the toys in the movie, 'cause I like Dead End better than Sideways. The fact his rims are red are what sells him for me, as I'm a sucker for custom rim jobs.

    He does look cool and all in those colors, but I'm going to pass on him. I really don't like the head sculpt as the mouth looks like an upside down back hoe with buck teeth.

    I don't think I've wrapped my head around Dead End's head... I can look at it, and it still doesn't make sense. Must be one of those things I need in-hand to understand.

    But I don't hate it, anyway. I'm also passing on Sideways to get this guy for sure. Never finding the darker Sideways variant helps.

    If they got rid of that head (seriously it just looks soooo bad, IMO) and gave him Sideways' black limbs, he'd look much much better.

    Only thing I like about him is the vehicle mode colors.

    I think the head is neat, but it doesn't really work for that mold. Really looks like a head that belongs on a more bulky robot of some sort.

    Paint deco in alt-mode looks wicked though.

    I'm not usually one for buying remolds/repaints/retools but I think I'll have to pick this up, maybe headswap with mysideways too.
