    Cool! I'll pick him up even though I don't get Legends figures...

    What's the retail price supposed to be?

    I thought it looked good till I remembered the underside, like the legs were afterthoughts

    Thanks, jrxcombinetrain! Nice pics!

    Since it's an exclusive, this is almost certainly a Joe Kyde deco. Anybody know what "J725" could be referencing?

    Very nice...I really like that mold for some reason and Hooligan was a favorite of mine from the good old days (along with Skyjack; they just need to make a Space Case so me and my brother can have our old G2 CyberJets in upgraded form!).
    The paintjob looks pretty good. I'll definitely get this set.

    I wounder why they didn't make it Fearswoop vs. Skids and Mudflap. Sideswipe and Mudflap just seems odd.

    A real sick part of me actually wants to get this.

    I don't know why, but that deco on this mold seems make it more appealing to me for some reason.

    The color scheme makes this mold look somewhat decent, but not enough to get me to buy it.

    I am not sure why they packed a deluxe with Legends. I don't buy Legends so I will skip this set. I am already happy with Dreadwing and Overcast. I don't need any more robots with one eye. TF1 had too many of these robots whose heads look like flashlights.

    Hooligan is one of my favorite Transformers of all time, and I've always wanted him to have an updated, upgraded, super detailed deluxe toy one day.

    ...sadly, today is not that day. I have Dreadwing and while his is kinda cute and quirky, in the long run he sucks hard in every mode. If I didn't already have him I would definitely pick this up. Hell, I still may pick it up despite not liking the mold or caring about the legends.

    Also, the new article bit is wrong about something. Hooligan wasn't based on an F-22 Raptor, he was based on an F-14 Tomcat. Which is actually one of the things that makes him one of my favorite TFs as the F-14 is one of my favorite jets.

    I like the review, very straightforward. He's definitely a Hooligan homage. I kind of wish they did an actual head though instead of the mono eye.

    What's with the GI Joe Python Patrol color scheme?
    if this had more of a movie color scheme, i woulda thunk it over and gotten this.
    CRIPES, that butterscotch/tiger stripe paint app just weeps and sobs to me.
    I am gonna have to pull a Peyton Manning and Pass....

    Are you sure about that? Check out the stabilizers. Looks more F-22 than F-14 to me.
