    We'll give 10,000 official FanPoints (redeemable for e-peen) to the first person to note all FOUR hidden references in the bios! :D

    Cool colors.

    Cutting alongside is reference to Sidecutter. Capture signature of her prey is Captured Prey. And Mega fan is reference to Mega toy fan.

    Should have been a fan of Gorillaz instead of Daft Punk.

    Really? Seriously lame if you ask me. The originals from G1 sucked ass so why would these be any better?


    Oh! Right! Nostalgia has once again screwed with everybody's better judgement.

    Glad to see these. I have been lobbying for a SG recolor.

    Oddly they choose to reverse the colors. Raindance was red on top, blue on bottom. Probably did that so Birdbomber was not blue again like in his normal release huh?

    Let's see I see Wash from Firefly in Birdbomber, plus it mentions "Captured Prey". hehehe.

    DJ Bighands mentioned in B-Box, plus he's a "mega fan". hahaha

    As I'm not attending those conventions, I'll have to try to pick one up at the CP store if they go online. Hope some are left.

    I usually hate Shatter Glass, but this is really cool. Still not sure about buying this set, though. It looks a little flat in robot mode. But I'm considering it. It's a shame this version is so limited.

    Gotta say, though: I REALLY like the Keith's Fantasy Club logo. That's just badass. And funny.

    Is that the only way to get one of these sets is at a bottom?

    I was thinking the other way around. Beastbox is red. With blue must be Squawktalk. Is not it?

    The colors are the way they are to keep them more different from the g1 colors. Teal to close to blue and red purple. But I also kinda liked the transmetal primal reference from b-box.

    I'd have bought them if they were the "right" colors too, but I understand that the G1 colors were not very different, so I see your point in making them look strikingly different.

    Considering these are the first uses of a SG release and these have been colored and planned for months these are the "right" colors as you called them.

    True, there no official coloration for a SG Squawkbox, since (so far) he does not exist in any official fiction.

    I am officially buying this just for the fact that Beastbox likes Daft Punk.

    Oh, and I like SG stuff.
