    TRANSFORMERS® Movie Scout: WARPATH™
    WARPATH isn’t really into following orders. The way he sees it, if OPTIMUS PRIME® was all that into freedom, he’d let the other AUTOBOTS® do what they wanted instead of trying to command them all the time. For his part, WARPATH is happy to fight the DECEPTICONS®, because those guys are in serious need of a beat down. But he’ll do it his own way, and on his own time.

    TRANSFORMERS® Movie Scout: STORM SURGE™
    STORM SURGE is so named because of his all-encompassing approach to combat. Allies and opponents alike rarely leave a fight in which he is involved without being soaked in corrosive salt acid, or bathed in jellied gasoline. During fights at sea, the water around him erupts constantly into geysers as his depth charges roll indiscriminately into the ocean. On land, he sprays the area around him with emitters housed on his arms, figuring that the more destructive power he puts out, the more likely it is he’ll take out his AUTOBOT® enemies.

    TRANSFORMERS® Movie Scout: CROSSHAIRS
    Armorer and weapons master for the AUTOBOTS®, CROSSHAIRS is used to dealing with some of the most dangerous technology in the galaxy. Long use has taught him to be painstakingly methodical, but has also caused him to be so entrenched in his systematic organizational methods that no other AUTOBOT® could ever hope to find anything in the vast armory on CYBERTRON™. CROSSHAIRS is so careful that he will not issue a weapon unless the requester fills out forms detailing – in triplicate – his need.

    It is. We just got the information. Super Megs posted the thread while I worked on the front page post.

    I love this Scout line. Give me twenty Skyblast repaints, sixteen Strongarm repaints, seven Arcee repaints, five Armorhide repaints, and a partridge in a pear tree and I'll be happy.

    Why would they make Warpath a jeep, when Scattorshot hasn't even been repainted yet? I'm all for reimagining and changing characters, but this just seems weird. It's a nice color scheme, too, but it doesn't really match the original Warpath's. They could of just slapped a new name on him and everything would make a lot more since to me.

    That said, I might get him. Maybe Stormsurge, too. I have the original molds these are repainted from, but these paint apps make them very appealing.

    Ill take Crosshairs and Storm Surge. Warpath is a repaint of quite possibly the worst TF mold I've had the misfortune to own in years (and this is coming from a guy who can usually find something good to say about every release), so Ill skip him, EVEN if it means missing out on that tasty deco.

    I like the Shortround repaint but the others are lame.

    Looking a lot like BotCon Fallback there, Crosshairs...

    Edit: I just realized something - if Hasbro has the rights to the name 'Warpath' again, could the tank in the first wave of Classics 2.0/Universe mentioned in the new Toyfare article be an updated Warpath?

    Though it looks cool, and i'll probably pick it up, i love cheap TFs...
    Do we need a 4th main release Strongarm Deco?
    Don't we have enough scouts that we could have 4 waves of Movie Scouts, all unique?

    First thought that crossed my mind when I saw it too. Brown tones are a little bit different, then just swapped (dark to light, light to dark). Being the AllSpark Power line, I'm surprised that they didn't give him the bright blue Energon weapon like BotCon Fallback had. Of course, that might have been done in order to get away from what BotCon Fallback had.

    Um... come on seaspray? They couldn't spare some blue and yellow plastic?

    Brawn, gears and Seaspray... they could have done it even if it was wrong names like "Tough, Cogs and Lakesplash"

    They have enough of the small molds to do the *WHOLE* G1 minibot cast.

    But Warpath isn't too bad, the red is nice on that mold.

    Actually now that you mention it it would have been rather easy to do Crosshairs as a G1 homage... hell swap his colours with Warpaths and you're there...

    Not that it not being exactly geewun means anything. I just thought Id raise the point.

    Of course we do! But Hasbro is ******ed! So we get another Strongarm & 50 million Arcee repaints instead of something cool like Cybertron Scattorshot.

    All these Strongarm repaints are just so similar too....oh well. I was hoping for a Scattorshot.

    Eh, I'll pick up the stormsurge, but I'll pass on crosshairs and his lame bio, as well as the not-really-warpath Warpath

    Nice. I'll definently be getting Stormsurge and Warpath... not so sure on Crosshairs, but sense he's a different character from Strongarm I probably will. I'm a sucker for the Energon and Cybertron Basics...

    That's what I was thinking, they could have made a pretty good Seaspray out of the Shortround mold. Nonetheless, I'll get Storm Surge because I never managed to get Shortround.
