That's what the packaging looks like if you pop on over to HTS and look at the listing for him, Prime, Megatron and Overkill (Grimlock repaint). They're all HTS exclusive and are currently on pre-order and scheduled to ship out sometime in December.

 

yeah, silhouette might not be the best word, but what i was getting at is since mirage is white with various blue extremities and Drag Strip is allmost all yellow, it gives him a different "visual shape" ~ like Mirage looks like he's wearing blue boots boots and shoulder pads but Dragstrip just has "solid" arms and legs ~ does that make sense?

 

Oh I got what you were saying I just read silhouette and thought, huh. No big deal guess I was just being a "corrective carl"

Your point is actually one of the things I like about this guy cuz Fracture/Crasher is like Mirage in that respect. Drag Strip having less variety in limb color is what will help set him apart from those 2. I remember seeing 2 version of this guy too, one of them had black forearms I believe

 

I'm so happy that i cracked and bought this fig...it's a really solid revamp of g2 inferno...now i just need it to arrive

 

Dragstrip looks realy good

 

A must have!!! Looks sweet!!!

 

i agree. hasbro will have my cash.

 

I'm super into Inferno!

Will definitely buy the Hasbro Toy Shop stuff too but I cringe to think at the condition they'll arrive in

 

Inferno excites me in ways that a toy probably shouldn't. Beautiful figure.

I especially like that, unlike with Cyclonus, the figure doesn't take a major hit in the appearance department when not photoshopped.

 

Inferno's looking better the more I see of him. Maybe it's the "less kiddie" nature of the Universe line, but I'm almost surprised they didn't just give him a squirt gun like the G2 toy had, instead of the "water missile".

 

must haves

 

Must. Own. Universe. G2/Classics. Inferno.

Inferno is perfection. Please give us a Grapple!

 

Inferno looks great! Lots of detail there that wasn't visible in earlier pics.

Already have Dragstrip preordered...can't wait!

 

I dunno, they could just as easily replace the water cannon with a crane like they did for Energon Inferno/ Roadblock.

 

I see nothing wrong with either figure, and both will be must-gets for me. The more they do with these kinds of figures, the better. Heck, I'm even selling my vintage collection and still getting these.   Way to go, Hasbro! Keep up the good work!  

 

Inferno looks nice I guess. The emergency signals are clear. Hopefully HASBRO will fix that. It should have been Hot Stop to keep up the gestalt leader voyagers.

For Dragstrip ugh....another repaint with an all spark power blue face. PASS.

 

This is what I've thought Hasbro will do since I first saw Inferno. Guess we'll have to wait and see.

 

I'd pretty much bet on it based on what was said in the latest TCC Magazine. They're working with Takara to design the remolded parts from the beginning so that we're not just buying new paint when the repaints come out. Soooo... being as Grapple doesn't have a new head they'd just design crane to replace the water cannon.
