i very much doubt that long term durability was a deciding factor on this look, it does however have that effect in practice. unfortunately it means the toy looks kind of crappy to begin with and stays that way, at least chromed parts (on toys that look good chromed) looked good to begin with.

They've took what was a really nice original paintjob and then given it this bland new one. Urgh.

I'm assuming you mean the cross sell pic on the back of Blazing Lockdown's card. No, we first saw stock pics of Swindle's alt and bot modes from a slide at SDCC. Yes, he does look awesome.

Unfixed hands + crappy looking paintjob = not worth the chainsaw. Congratulations Hasbro - you've just created the first Animated figure I don't want to buy.

It looked good on the box, but here? It looks not so good.

Thank the Matrix for that - I won't be compelled to buy him now just for the chainsaw.

Do not like. The Lockdown mold is nice, but not nearly as nice as Habro makes it out to be. Whats with all those repaints?

I hope Swindle shows up soon. Thats a figure i can get behind.
