    I don't see it as "milking" to simply make the same recolors Hasbro did for the characters. Those recolr should be expected.

    Oddly, although it doesn't show up in the directory, here is a direct link to the Chrome Spray preorder. $30 and free shipping.

    I'm looking forward to this. The profiles are always worth a read as well, hope he has a new one.

    Frankly this mold is kind of klugee in transformation, and the only reason I adore my first edition IGear Spray is because... well... it's Seaspray. But overall I don't feel an overwhelming need for a G2 'sparkly' vers. As already mentioned better by others in this thread- the need for new molds be damned- they just need to make this guy in scale with NOT Brawn, Cosmos, et. al., and then we'd be talking another purchase.

    Aaaaaaaaaaand this --^ "Milking it" would be what Hasbro does. So technically iGear still has a long way to go before they can give Hasbro a run for its money.

    Yeah, I'm not interested until he's scale with Hench, Veer, Cogs, etc...

    To be in SCALE with a Hench, he's probably have to be Ultra sized, he is a Hovercraft ship! You could probably park hench in his hold.

    Right there with you. He's a great mold, but they need to make him and Rager in scale with the others they have and are releasing. Otherwise i would have been all over their "Pipes" Figure as well. That size does fit "Erector" quite nicely though.

    I plan to get this one as I missed the first release. I would also buy an "Octopunch" recolor.

    THIS^^^

    Honestly that's why I'm holding onto my Takara Autobot Alliance version until I see something More G1 and on par. And the Igear Minibots fit decently enough in his loading bay area, and I tend to want to go for for a mix of both character size relation and realistic vehicle size. Also why I prefer the Ultra class Powerglide. Really wish that they would redo/ think Astrotrain, Thunderwing and the Seekers for that very purpose

    No Thanks.

    No need to own a teeny tiny hovercraft that even MP Dr. Archevil can't sit in. :lol

    looks nice. I wonder if they'll do a smaller run of "purple" variant chrome color :p

    I pre-ordered one, but hope they paint the windows. I prefer this face (black visor)when compared to the first release (all grey).
