The Shockwave redeco is a little odd. They just put a little bit of pink on his gun as far as I can tell. Was his chest a different color on the first release? (EDIT) It was, it was gray. I guess along with that Smokescrean they're both just slighly more G1 then then their previous toy decoes.
Thank you for this list I'll only get doubles of the 2 voyagers and the 1 deluxe, saves me plenty of $$$
I am honestly surprised at how much the "Sky Lynx" redeco of Skystalker appeals to me. I donno why, but the mix of colors rally makes that mold pop.
Here's more pictures. http://www.tfw2005.com/boards/trans...readcon-rising-beast-hunters.html#post9500716
Sky-Lynx is confusing. He doesn't even have any Remolds. And Quickstrike is a ursogryph now? It's cool that Bombshock is getting a toy. I wish it was in the show deco, though.
I don't think "Darksteel" is meant to be a Quickstike homage, like the DOTM redeco. I think they probably just thought Darksteel sounded like a good name for this guy. The Sky Lynx homage on the other hand is kind of strange. But I still like it oddly enough.
Ditto this. I was never into collecting the Prime figures, and the Beast Hunters really didn't inspire me at all. I saw Shockwave voyagers at my local TRU, but I just had no interest in buying it. I love Shockwave, and collect all sorts of Shocky stuff (Mighty Muggs, Kreo, etc...) but this was a pass. The "Dark Energon" series was a flop, I believe majority of those are all on clearance at BBTS now. The "Predacons Rising" seem like a cool concept, but its just more of the same. Need MOAR Bumblebee! *facepalm I should also remind all our crazy collectors who think these pictures represent the final product. Look at Cryofire, nice shiny blue... Yeah, well, once again, I reference this edition of Shortpacked to nicely remind you, things are NEVER what they appear.
My TF dragon shelf is getting too full. Some are already perched on one another. I suppose a couple of KOs and others may have to find a new home...or I should start a second dragon shelf. But most of these exclusives will be bought on sight. Edit: Dragon pics!
So wait, I read somewhere that they were going to be Target USA and Tesco and Carrefour only. Does that mean they won't be in Canada?
I'm pretty sure a majority of us already know that. You don't have to start bringing others down everyone's opinion just because YOU don't like it. Also, really, a Willis comic? That's not helping your argument very much.
Sky Lynx didn't like getting a little green Mini-Con named after him? Also, he was a recolored card in the Transformers 3D card game right? A Pink 2007 movie Megatron model. Plus he appeared in SG and Animated Almanac II.
