Picked him up today along with Landmine and Cliffjumper.

What can I say? I like the paint, but the figure is still the same as Swindle with all its faults.

My camera's battery is recharging. So for the time being just look at your Swindle and picture him silver with black, blue, and maroon accents.  

 

Thanks for starting a review thread with no pics.  

 

Is it really that hard to picture Swindle in different colors?

But here are some pics after the batteries charged. I'll take more when time permits.




Heh, just noticed the CS in the paintjob.

 

he'd be easy to make into wildrider...

 

I'm sure he'll be a shelfwarmer making kitbashing into many things a possibility.

If only the mold wasn't so craptastic. I dislike it more and more. Damn you G1 theme!

 

I bought him a few weeks ago. I don't have Swindle, which is why I bought Camshaft. He's okay. It does get irritating having to pop his head off just to get some good poses outta him. And I don't have anything with which to carve out a groove for the neck to go through (that I know of anyway). Oh well.

 

yeah, I don't think I want it. I passed on the first paint too. If we can get the darned aveo mold that was a dealer exclusive, I'll be all over it.

 

Eww Razerwire, I thought you passed on crappy repaints. Cliffjumper is exempt, that car looks sexy in any color.

 

Because it's G1, though he still wont take my advice and buy Night Watch Prime  

 

  it IS a shame that nightwatch couldn't be a repaint of the upcoming premium version, with the sword...

 

Now I want a custom sword for mine how killer would that be?  

 

VERY. hehehe

 

That is one sucktastic figure in any color. Cliff and Landmine however are coming home with me.

 

Yeah, to reiterate Soundwave.ca, I do not want Nightwatch Prime because I don't feel comfortable with dropping another $40. If it came with a sword instead of a gun, that'd be a different story entirely.

I'd buy it and call it Magnus.  

But yeah, I picked up Camshaft because of the G1 reference.

 

He looks nothing like G1 Camshaft.

 

But his colours in vehicle mode scream G1 Blue/Silverstreak  

 

He's silver. Therefore he looks like Camshaft.  

 

^ G1 Megatron, Browning, G2 Ironhide, Energon Energon Hot Shot, Cybertron Galvatron, Movie Scorponok, and many others would like a word with you, Razerwire.  

 

I'm pretty sure if you listen close enough, you can hear Camshaft whispering "please kill me, my life is pain" on account of it being such a sucktastic mold.

 

Yes but are they cars with the exception of Energon Energon Hot Shot?  

And EE Hot Shot could've been named Camshaft and I would've been okay with that too.
