Million Publishing has posted images of their exclusive Skids and Screech promotional figures for their Transformers Generations 2009 magazine. Previous exclusives were Ghost Starscream and Stealth Mirage. The new images show add ons for Skids and Screech; the duo painted in colors resembling Skids & Mudflap from Revenge of The Fallen.

AutobotSkids
If these guys aren't too expensive, I'll happily pick up a Skids. No Screecher though, I don't need two. But I dig Screecher's color Scheme.
PoweredConvoy
Yes I have all of those. The Black Megatron & Sunstorm used the same packaging as their originals (mostly) except with the new logos & trademarks etc.
I would tend to think they'd use the Encore Skids packaging, except they'd have to make a new plastic insert for the scooter unless they package them inside the cars – or Crosscut's fits in Encore Skids' box.

Black Ironhide and Green Ratchet used the Encore packaging. Guardian Robot used the same clamshell and packaging as Encore Omega, save the new full-sized art on the front of the box.
PoweredConvoy
Good question. They might just use the packaging for Encore Skids, or that of eHobby Crosscut with the Takara labels being replaced with TakaraTomy. They could be plain white mailers too.
Randy
Foster
Correct.

In scale?
The scooters look like they are made for Diaclone driver figures.
alien
i wonder how is packaging look like..? G1 style…?
PoweredConvoy
Let's hope not.
Shark Jumper
I keep imagining Screech sounds like Screech from Saved By the Bell….
Jarodimus
Man, these guys look good. I'm weakening….
Foster
It was used on one of the Diaclone versions. Think Trailbreaker and Hoist.
Bumblethumper
I might check out Mudflap. Is that a new headsculpt?
The_Black_Sheep
Yeahhhhh, I'm sure the hardcore fandom will be fighting each other for these 2…
PoweredConvoy
I wish their faces wouldn't have been silver but gray like the earlier versions. Now that Screech's head is gray, they should have made the face orange. I do like the green on Skids more in these photos, but between the changes to the head and removing the black for gray, I'm not as excited about them.

Do the scooters transform?
Anyway, the red one's (Screech?) color scheme looks better IMO even though green is my favorite color. In car and robot forms. Also, they look really simple to transform.

I do really like and want!
Powersa
probably limited to 2,000 pieces but i can not find the appeal other than they are rare. Same goes for the limited run of G1 Ironhide and Ratchet in movie color.
reave
Same crappy mold, new crappy colors. Rare or not, Skids was always a turd.
Foster
These two will go great with my other E-Hobby toys!
