This is a simple repaint of Voyager class Animated Lugnut, and it rocks! It is such an oddball repaint and I love the colors. 
His main color is like a metallic teal which really shines. Other colors are black, yellow, and 2 different shades of green on the hands, mace, and cockpit. 
The new CON symbol on him is interesting, it has gold as a background with a black CON symbol, looks kind of nice. 
Here is his mace with hazard symbol:
Jet mode:
Looks awesome in jet mode, very G2 ish to me with the colors and shark teeth. And as of yet I have no problem closing and keeping the cockpit closed.... 
CON symbols on the wings are gold and black as well: 
Serving the new master with his new atomic powers!!!!
In short, great repaint of a great figure IMO. If you like this mold, repaints and the colors then I recommend him. If you have the original and iffy about it, then I would probably stick with the one you have unless when he comes out and you take a gander in the store, you may be persuaded to pick him up since he is kind of funky! |

Are the bio, quote, and galactic powers different on the back? If so, would you mind posting a pic of the back of the box, or type the new writing? Thanks for the review! |

I love his yellow head. It reminds me of Energon Sixshot.  I accept commissions. Pm for details. http://spamo123.deviantart.com/ |

Anyway, Deceptigtar, as you know the first release's head and cockpit parts had kind of a sweaty-feel looking plastic, can you see if the plastic feels, eh, how to word it, more solid with the new colors? |
