    The right hand is now open and the left is a closed fist, which is opposite of scourge

    I guess I'm the fool for asking more for the Sweeps.

    The hand swap on Sweep is brilliant. Hasbro weren’t kidding when they said there was no need to troop build the short packed Scourge.

    Yep. Which is fine for me since they are exact copies of scourge

    I wonder if they fixed the thumb breakage on this figure, i hope so

    I guess the expectation for it being another named release would have it have at least some changes but vmon its a sweep they\'re identical to scourge. Its just like buying another scourge which we would\'ve done anywa without this. No reason to be mad

    I already have Scourge. Now, I don’t think I want to buy 3 Sweeps and spend $100 on them.

    They could've atleast colored the sweeps like the botcon ones to give it some differentiation, they honeslty should've gone with something else cuz it's basically a scourge re-release.

    Haaaaave you met this forum?

    Is that bad? Scourge was shortpacked, if I recall, and is also going for nearly double on the secondary market.

    That's awesome, yet very hilarious. Sweeps should be identical to Scourge, so repacking Scourge makes total sense. Now I can wait and hopefully get either these or Scourge himself on sale for some Galvatron fodder.

    But then that wouldn't be accurate. Maybe if they retooled the face to have an expression of horror?

    The hands are swapped. Guess now you can have two open-hands or two closed fists if you want to part swap.
