    If anyone's got this, can anyone tell me if the energon goodie accessory is still cast in translucent plastic or opaque plastic like the windshield?

    though the Kup mold really is the worst figure in the intire SS line. That deco is kinda reeling me in grrr.

    Hasbro shoulda have had this fig in the SS line all along instead of the other one.

    The worst figure in the ENTIRE SS line? I know it's not everyone's favorite but there's definitely more stinkers than him.

    I'm convinced on both. I love my ER Cliffjumper already but this really kicks things up a notch. I think SS86 Kup is a-okay but this makes him such a better figure. The brighter paint really makes him look like much less of a downer and while the face still isn't superb the new paint on it makes it look at least a bit more fleshed out.

    Hopefully these are just as easy to find as everything other Buzzworthy release has been.

    Have to see this in person first, but not too crazy about the new color scheme on Cliffjumper. Kup on the other hand looks better.

    Kup is whatever, I like what they did but I'm fine with the first one.

    But Cliffjumper, why didn't we receive this in the first place? Obvious blatant fan extortion. It would be nice to see them release the actual correct deco the first time around rather than some random crap. I'm glad we are getting this, but it shouldn't take 2 tries and it was very obviously doable. Now everyone gets to hunt Targets for the actual Cliffjumper they should have gotten 2 years ago.

    Loving the Buzzworthy Cliffjumper, he looks fine with all the windows painted, but it’s the grey limbs that make the biggest improvement.

    I picked up the original release of this mold and wanted to get an extra for some part swapping and what not. I accidentally ended up with a 2nd GS Hubcap so a head swap and a little red paint on one for a G2 Hubcap.

    I will say I still prefer the paint application on the grill for WFC Cliffjumper, but that’s an easy fix.

    I’m still imagining making a Tap-out would be easiest starting with Bugbite and a CJ head, or Black Stealth Tapout from a Cliffjumper Head and Shattered Glass Goldbug…

    I am still really hoping we can get a VW Bumblebee in the Buzzworthy line or Legacy I don’t care. I was never able to get the Netflix release of him.

    Other than the painted windshield are is any of the plastic different colors or hues on Buzzworthy Kup. He just looks different beyond his windshield, but that could be just my perception.

    Are we really splitting hairs on something like this? Generations are a modern update on classic characters. Go to MPs if you want hyper cartoon accuracy. This is ludicrous.

    I'm honestly dumbfounded on how much of the fandom is this anal about things like this.

    If they release Jazz (the '86 one) in this line like how they did Kup, then we're all good.

    Yeah, like Grimlock, Slag, and Starscream, who look like they belong in the Netflix WFC show instead of the 86 movie.

    Dont mind getting this Cliffjumper since I passed on the ER release. Guess they should make Earthmode Hound too soon since it’s been about three years since the Seige figure was released and he’s the only WFC deluxe autobot left without his classic alt mode.
