I hope somebody from here does. The Blades at Botcon had the marred face and we couldn't see what was planned as far as paint apps.

^ same deal with with the target two pack guys. That funny orange x was irritating me. But if it deters them from being stolen and sold, hey we lived with it.

I just got cybertron evac, it's a crazy cool mold. The gimmicks work really well and the spinning rotor gear seems to do the job softly to prevent wear and breaking. So I'll be ok owning 3 decos of it. I like the "coastal rescue" font print. It trys to break up the abundant red a bit.
At least its a true candy apple red, and not the stuff that can be mistaken for orange like first strike optimus prime.

just for fun, I'd say from this image the colors do marvel g1 blades justice:

edit: whoa dropshot as well. I just like dropshot for the way it balances out autobots new air forces with a decepticon anti air missle rack. clever choice. But it loses some style points from me for not being a micromaster flak homage.

That Evac mold's getting a lot of love. Blades looks really nice. But so did Evac, and I was less than impressed when I actually got him in my hands.
<--Just pretend like it's been updated for Christmas.

As nice as these are, and as much as I can understand die-hards wanting their hands on them first, I just don't get the prices these figures go for.

People pay 2-3 (or more) times what a figure will be released for, just to have the pride in knowing they had it first. But, in the end, once the figures are released, you only end up with a loose figure that has no directions and could be incomplete. Sometimes a paint app may be different but if that doesn't happen what's to differentiate this figure from any of thousands?

I'm not knocking the buyers, more power to them. I just don't understand the mindset.

I completely agree. I will wait until it comes out.
