    Damnit... I guess I'm getting more triple changers.

    He looks awesome.

    That's a hell of a lot more remolding then I expected...And I originally didn't think he was going to be remolded.

    Good to know that Sandstorm will look significantly different from Springer. Can't wait to get him!

    Holy shitballs, they really went to town remolding this guy. I've always had a fondness for Sandstorm for some reason, despite not growing up with G1 and him having the least personality of the Autobot Triple Changers. Maybe I just like orange, maybe it was the fact his G1 toy looked more impressive than Springer's, who knows. I'm just glad Hasbro put effort into this instead of just giving Springer a new head and calling it a day. Now if only I could afford him (or any new toys for that matter)!

    He looks fantastic, even if he is a character I don't really care for.

    Gives me hope for a really impressive Blitzwing retool. ...Hopefully as Overlord.

    Hot damn. I was already set to buy this even if it was just a repaint.. Springer is just that good. Still, pretty happy with how this turned out.

    Yea, I hope a few things can be hidden a bit more in bot mode, but it is pretty damn impressive the amount of retooling that went into this guy.

    I'm really impressed by how much new tooling they did, I figured a new head and maybe the chest modified. They went all out. I have been wanting to see pics of him bad.

    Love the amount of remolding. Kudos to the designers.

    I'm almost getting more of a Sureshot feel rather than Sandstorm from the Buggy mode.

    Wow, no kidding. It hardly resembles the original. Very cool.

    Hell, I am considering changing my order to a case so I can have two of each of these. Still trying to "man-up" and order the Takara version of Springer, but I think I will wait to see pictures to see how shiny it is.

    For a remold he looks like a completely different figure! I'm impressed. I loved this character btw. "Eat my dust!"
