I like the idea of the combiner, its interesting enough to warrant a purchase. i rather like the kibbled up bots but i still find the ugly faces and asymmetric arms just too contrived.
Mistransformed, but I guess movie toys are just that complicated without instructions. Also why hasn't this been FP'ed yet?
I liked the other pics of Mudflaps robot mode more. where he had more "Wings" or shoulders. But none the less this is an instant buy. and I knew these guys were gonna be tiny, but they're SO tiny next to Sideswipe and Arcee (Which we've seen is roughly the size of Chromia) I was hoping these would be a bigger deluxe. Still so awesome.
The twins are SO bought. Kinda bummed skid's seems to have one painted wrist jointed hand and a pink unpainted immobile hand.
Want the twins. Just so... hideously adorable. Sideswipe is quite obvuiously a custom. Just look at the underside shot.
I'm still rather horrified by Skids and Mudflap and their cartoon ogre faces, but putting them in pink and white like Arcee's ugly stepsisters pushes the balance over toward "silly enough to buy" for me.
Would it kill Hasbro to put a little paint on those things? It's such a wonderfully weird thing that I have a feeling I will be buying it, and skids bot mode looks nicer in some ways. But the cheap purple and white plastic is awful. If it wasn't for the old fashioned grill on Skids chest and the interesting alt mode, I don't think I'd be able to stomach this. They're definitely crying out for a intentionally bad custom paint job!
Skids is good but Mudflap is ugly. But this icecream truck is so unique that I cannot say no... In reality what year was this ice-cream truck ever been existed ?? I am curious... 60's or 70's ? or Will this be shown in the ROTF movie ?
I don't know about Sideswipe being a custom, might be an actual battle damage repaint. The irregular battle damage on the carmode really hints at that. I hope it's real in any case; it looks pretty good!
As much as I dislike the twins, I'm so going to get that ice cream truck simply for the vehicle mode.
Would it have killed Hasbro to put more paint on the inside!?! They look so strange in pink and white. Still like the mode and their individual toys as well.
