    Are those typos, or are they being called Spinster and Kickoff?

    Kickoff is accurate. Corrected the first post. It is Spinister not Spinster.

    Any clue if the junkions will all have the same head, or if they will be mixed (using junkheap and scrapheap)?

    I still think that Junkions in Sharkticon color scheme would've been best (since they were both introduced in the movie and were really analogous), but given we got Sharkticons two years back, Insecticon colors make more sense.

    If Kickout and Spinister were packaged together, I could have seen that set selling out quick. Smart play by them to package the lesser desired figures with each one of them to encourage sales.

    I just realized, that since Spinster is Shattered Glass, he may not be in G1 colors. Or he might, if he's like Seaspray... Can't wait til someone posts some pics.

    I think Spinister and Kick-off are Classics not SG. Only their package partners are.


    -ZacWilliam, that way you get sort of a VS. battle pack with both sides

    I love the original Action Masters as a whole, but sadly Kick-Off was pretty much the only one of them I was never very thrilled by. He kinda bored me as a kid for no reason I can say.

    So for me it's pretty much just Spinister. Him I'd love.


    -ZacWilliam, Octopunch I'm 50/50 on...

    I wonder how much the Junkions would cost. I just might be willing to pay someone to buy them for me at the convention.

    I'll have to see pics first, but I don't think I'm interested in anything other than the Junkieons

    EDIT: I'm probably going to end up caving on these, so if anybody at the con is willing to middleman for me...PLEASE shoot me a PM.

    yeah, I want them all. I'm gonna be watching ebay like a hawk, and I'm hoping the 3 SG Junkions use the three head molds already in existance.
