    You mean who it's been used against? Optimus, Arcee, and Bulkhead once took it and used it on Breakdown.

    I was hoping you could recall an episode(s) where it's been used so I can look up a few reference photos.

    Season 1: Masters & Students (I believe is the episode title)
    The one where Miko has a project on Greek Mythology and her & Bulk end up finding the Energon Harvester.

    Season 2: Tunnel Vision
    The one that aired this past Saturday.

    Those are the only ones I can really recall the use of his staff in.

    Thanks, I originally thought that was it, but for some reason, I was pairing that title and the episode where Jack gets into streetracing.

    I just got him. I really like it but, the front panel that folds on his hip for the left side keeps popping off. Damn it.

    I'm not getting the hate I've been seeing for this guy at all. When I first saw pics and vids, yeah the colors seemed really bad, and the first vid I saw of him did have him mistransformed (ala how the instructions do it), but having him in hand now...

    The colors look pretty good, I think the red and the maroon offset eachother really well. And transformed properly, he looks good, maybe not completely accurate, but damn close.

    Only real complaints are that the arms are a little less posable than I'd like due to the windows getting in the way, and his weapon being sorta..dull, hard for him to hold at times, and I also don't like the peg holes for it on his vehicle mode.

    So, I just got this, and I'm really disappointed.

    -Paint chipped off the hood in the package
    -Nearly Scout-sized in alt mode
    -No yellow or light blue like on the back of the package
    -Hinge on the left arm's kibble cracked when I moved it
    -Almost no color break-up in robot mode, making it look really blah.


    And I haven't even tested its rolling capability yet. The Vehicon and (dare I say it?) BB repaint Hot Shot are much better figures.

    My only problem with this figure is the lack of paint. Everything else is fine once you get him properly transformed.

    That's because it's a hand painted figure. Possibly a test shot since the windows are opaque (that's just paint in this instance) and with holes in the front windshield. The retail figure doesn't have those holes or most of the graphic in silver on the doors. They almost never come looking like on the box or "official" pics. You've got to DIY or commission one if you want better paint and it honestly looks miles better painted up.

    The size you can't do anything about but FWIW it scales with the others decently. The damage is unfortunate but at least it wasn't your Vehicon. It's the best we're going to get. A little TLC and some paint might change your mind on KO though.

    He feels flimsy and more than a little bit on the cheap side, but if nothing else, his wheels should be easy enough to paint;

    ... or you could just leave him looking like he fell asleep in the wrong side of town.

    I got him yesterday along with vehicon and I don't get the hate - I think I may like him more than vehicon, actually. He may not be an exact match to the show model but I don't really care about that, he's an awesome piece of engineering and design in his own right. I don't hate the colors either.

    All he really needs IMO is a few more paint apps and/or a reprolabels upgrade. Definitely going to paint the rims and certain joints gold and the back window black when I get a chance.

    WTF is up with Hasbro ignoring paint apps on the back of the car so often?

    Front offset is the money shot for cars.

    I think it's them cutting corners as usual.
    I'm a bit uneasy with what the arms micron version will look like since it's gonna be sticker intensive and probably use the U.S. one as a base...
