    Just announced this morning is a Black Redeco Clan version of The Boxbomber set. B-Box is now Smack Down, and Birdbomber is now Black Hawk. They combine into "Black Hawk Down".

    This is a limited roaming convention exclusive, I'm in a small facebook group called Hands of Steel and it was organised so those dudes could have an exclusive figure, but due to the demands of production runs it will very likely be offered outside of the site as well.

    I'm surprised we have not seen a black Rhinohorn yet.

    What's coming next Blue and Thunder? Pearl and Harbor? Rio and Bravo? Die and Hard?

    With the mention of the Black Redeco Clan, I have to wonder how this toy is related to Upgrade Commander's Black Rager.

    Oh crap! I just realized. The bio for Smack Down makes a reference to the movie "King of Kongs", a movie about the video game Donkey Kong. People will need to get the Mech Ideas not-Animated Huffer to go with this so they can have Mario and Donkey Kong in Transformer form!

    While they are primarily exclusive to the group "Hands of Steel" (on facebook) there will be someone making the convention rounds (BotCon, AA, TFCon) selling any that aren't currently claimed at the time, limited to one set per person.

    I wish the first version of these guys would come out FIRST before they repaint it.

    Do we really need this in black? How about getting the regular version out first?

    They seem to be all the color variants of one mold at the same time. Probably easier.
