    It's actually an old level of Visible Head Syndrome, given that's how the original Override looked.

    Ooh very nice. Definitely gonna have to pick her up when she comes out (if I can even find her).
    This brand new mold is giving me hopes for a proper Cosmos. We're so close.

    HOLY SHIT at long last a properly proportioned Override...........she's a voyager.....fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck.

    Not that I'm against that it's just these price increases are making me very conscious of what I may potentially be spending if I got every figure that interested me. Aw screw it she's going on the list after Toy Deco Cyclonus. Screw future me he shall figure out how to pay for it later.

    Have to say the only thing that seems a tad wonky is that red middle bit in her vehicle mode. It just seems a tad too large and as far as I can tell(haven't watched the vid just going of posted shots) it seems like leg filler.

    Nah, UT looks a lot closer to G1.

    I don't care if you like it, I'm just saying that one looks more similar than the other, and so the need to make it match the style is easier.

    It was Hasbro's choice to make this particular character an exclusive and there is absolutely nothing stopping Hasbro from making a Cybertron Override for the main Legacy line. I'm sorry to be the one to point out that the company that makes the things from your childhood isn't infallible, but it isn't and pretending otherwise is just being a shill.

    BTW, of late, Target US exclusives have been the only thing I've been unable to get my hands on. All other exclusives have made their way here and I've had my chance at all of them. This isn't about availability, it's about pricing.

    Selfishly, shame it isn't G1 Override.

    Happy for the AEC fans.

    New mould here gives me hope that any of Sureshot, Slapdash, Venom, Backstreet or the Firecons could get new moulds too.

    That's 100% accurate to the original Cybertron design that some people are crying for though.

    Okay.

    Legacy has its own art style, so people should stop talking about screen accuracy so much.

    You know, we are getting 2/4 Cybertron/Galaxy Force planet leaders. Here's hoping we might eventually get an Evac and Scourge to go with Override and Metroplex. And now I also have to get a new Galaxy upgrade Optimus prime too, so even better. XD

    Personally, I do like her robot mode. She looks far better than original toy. But her car mode.... eh, it\'s kinda messy. And the worst thing is it's a Wallmart exclusive. Thanks, Hasbro, hope you go bankrupt soon.

    I\'m so confused right now.

    Pins holding the wheels instead of crappy mushroom pegs? A red Transformer that\'s not a Target Exclusive?

    Further evidence that if we want deluxe sized figures without too many gaps, and with pinned wheels and an extensive paint job, we're gonna have to pay voyager prices :(

    Not familiar with the character, but the figure looks awesome! Plus, I really want more female TF's in my collection. A must buy!

    Oh boy. I know that pose/look. That’s absolutely my wife’s “don’t you already have enough Transformers” look.

    My guess is because it's trying to be like the toy. After all Nitro Convoy was a guy in Galaxy Force.
    But to me personally, it almost looks like they made the mold ambiguous enough that you could use it as either.
