    I might go hunting for Undermine. These might show up at Superstore, since the Generations Mini-cons did.

    As Jarrodimus said he was serious and so am I. Backstop IS a good toy.

    Might get Wreckloose if he's cheap enough. I wanted one back when he was out the last time, but couldn't find one. (Found all the others, but he was strangely MIA.)

    The Backstop repaint doesn't look all that bad either. (The silver is nifty.)

    They're going to have to be REALLY cheap though. I'm talking like 2 or 3 bucks cheap. Otherwise they're not really worth it IMO... (That's about what the Dollar General carried them for last time they had them. Like, a week ago. lol)

    Sweet. I missed Wreckloose and Undermine before, so I'm pleased about this. I'll probably pass on Backstop though, since I did manage to find him.

    I'll definitely pick up the Backstop repaint if I find him, but I already have Wreckloose and Undermine from way back, so those are passed.

    I just purchased Backstop recently for $2. For that price, he is loads of fun. He has tons of flaws, sure, but there's just something...endearing about him. I would consider picking up one of these repaints eventually.

    They totally missed the chance to repaint Backstop into what could've been Beast Machines Rhinox if he had left his Tankor form. :(

    Gotta love Backstop's bio: "...and nearly immobile when he plants his feet." Maybe that's because his robot mode doesn't have any damn knees?

    Still, I like the Repugnus mold, and I never had either of the other two, so...MAYBE.

    Yeah he does! They just... kinda... go side to side a little instead of forward and back...

    Animated Snarl is a much better mold.

    I love Backstop and to get that paint scheme is cool. To bad the others didn't get a new paint scheme. already have doubles of all 3..so Only the Backstop if I find these.

    I'd love it if they do this with the energon scouts as well. Be a nice excuse to get magma type dinobot and shadowhawk state side.

    "Nothing gets past Backstop. He is the ultimate guard - intelligent, watchful and nearly immovable when he plants his feet."

    Intelligence: 6

    If that's considered "intelligent," I hate to think what Hasbro classifies as being stupid...
