koffanatic:
Courtesy of Yizhi of TF08.net. Repaint of TFA Lugnut, Atomic version.
BrokenSVT:
I, for one, love that repaint. I know I'm in the minority on that one
Silent_Magnus:
Looks pretty cool.
Although a step down from his previous deco.
Purple is such a great color for decepticons.
kwickstrike:
not a fan of repiaints but this doesnt look bad.....should be a leader class
Gadep:
he looks like a transformer mated with a WW2 atomic bomb...
shroobmaster:
Hey, that yellow is looking PRETTY good, and his alt mode is alot more believable than the purple greeney (love that deco as well, but this atomic guy is a step-up IMO).
I'm getting him, in name of the noble and glorious TFA line!
godsenddeath:
Nice repaint.
Indifferent mold.
Shark Jumper:
I would have liked this if he glowed in the dark.
General Tekno:
Neat.
Won't get though.
col:
Probably will pick this one over the original. Can't pass up the decos on his alt mode!
Omega Charge:
Very cool repaint, but I don't want two of the mold.
Railguard:
Nice repaint but not interested.
Skylock:
Not really into animated, but I like that one.
Gingerchris:
He looks like he should be making honey.

Now that would've made the repaint more worthwhile.
Fosterlager:
He needs a Slim Pickens toy riding him like a mechanical bull.
Bass X0:
Looks good. I wouldn't get the mold again though but would be happy if this was his original colors from the start though. I hope he becomes these colors during the next season. Purple was so last season.
Dinobot Nuva:
Looking better, but I must resist!
DN

Last? More like so 20 years ago!
misterd:
Haven't purchased the original, but the nuke them may push me over the edge.
0R10N P4X:
Unless that deco makes it into the show, I'm not buying it.
dark69:
i love this repaint hes a must get!
Backscatter:
Nice deco, sold.
Sage o' G-fruit:
I own the original. No reason to get the new one.
G1Wheeljack:
Looks cool, but I rarley pick up repaints of Voyagers I already have, so pass.
artiepants:
Q: How do you make a horrible figure look worse?
A: Mustard yellow!!!
seriously, i think this figure is ridiculously bad even by animated standards, and the new deco is doing it no favors IMHO.
actually, looking again, i tak it back: the deco isn't that bad, but the Mustard Yellow cockpit jsut clashes really badly with the rest (especially the more primary yellow on the arms and nuclear warning symbol)
i will give it this, the teeth are kind bad-@$$ (but the alt mode still makes me weep at the horror of it all).
Ravenxl7:
Actually, that's not that bad looking. Though if I get this mold I'll probably get the original deco. I'm curious to see what Bulkhead's themed repaint will be (Hasbro hinted at it). Would be cool to see a mostly red repaint of him, imo.
General Magnus:
Love the shark-teeth deco. Will try and get it.
Bumblejazz:
I like it, but I have the original, so I probably won't get this.
Beastbot X:
It's Lugnut. Therefore I must have it.
Plus, I'm just trying to imagine him doing an ATOMIC P.O.K.E..... goodbye, Detroit...
NGW:
Already have the original mold. And while I do love the character, the mold, and like these colors...I have too much else new stuff I don't already own to pick up to worry about repaints.
WhiteMocha:
I actually quite like it.... the yellow makes his head look more skull-like, and the radioactivity symbol on the mace is nice. But I won't buy it. You have to draw the line somewhere, and same-character-themed-repaints seems a good place to do it.
Though I'm all over any Shockwave repaint that comes out... I love having "Longarm" among my Animated Autobots too much, so I need a second version of the figure to be in Shockwave mode among the 'Cons.

That wouldn't look half bad.
I wonder why I happen to like the character-repaints better than the original toys, maybe it's because of the variety.

Damn, that is a good point. Have to have him infiltrating the bots, that is just too cool. But he looks so damn awesome in his Shockwave robot mode.
Takara_destron:
I like it, but I don't even have the original yet and I'd rather that so pass (for now)
Retroqqq:
This will toy will be really popular in Japan, mark my words!
Bgrngod:
I hope they fixed the QC issues with the cockpit panels not staying put in alt-mode. I also had a nose gun fall of my current one

DOH!!
Still, paint app looks great. Just don't think it's enough to push me into the world of collecting variants. Samurai Prowl... now that's a different story. Body armor ftw!

I sort of have that problem. Although it's easily fixed by closing the cockpit a certain way.
shroobmaster:
The only true error that they should fix is his LACK of light-piping eye, it was a major turn off when I saw that his massive eye was darkly dark!
blackout501st:
o and btw, i got 3 words 4 ya.... ATOMIC FALCON PAWWNNCCHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Prometheum5:
That's actually a really slick repaint, but I don't need a second of the mold.
shroobmaster:
Hahaha, okay BlackOut, that toy gonna rock and all but you shouldn't get THAT excited, buddy!

Yeah, I can get it to latch in the closed position by closing the one side first and pinching it harder neat the back of the cockpit, but it still sucks.
No problem at all > Workaround > broken
flywheels:
I'm passing, but I do like the painted mouth on the plane.
Nachtsider:
Two words: Crash Dummies.
Pass.
Soundblaster1:
Dear Lugnut-
The 60s called. They want their colors back.
-SB
Admiral Thrawn:
is that a purple decepticon logo i see?
Ultrawave:
He does look good in these with the teeth on the side, although if I were to pick one up, it would most likely be the original. The purple seemed to fit him so well..(Honestly, when I first saw him, I thought he was Shockwave/blast xD)
Just a small question though, how does he transform? If I remember correctly, his box seemed to imply that he transformed himself like the activators or something...
