    they're already using Terradive for Depth charge......and there would be even more complaining if they used the Cyclonus mold for this instead of another character

    Okay, that cured me of wanting that figure like a shot.

    This idea was always going to come down to the headsculpt and this one just doesn't work.

    Not really sure how I feel about this figure. I have it on pre-order, but I'm just not super excited about it, which means I probably won't get it. :/

    Terrible headsculpt looks like they got the same guy who gave us the Metalhawk and Animated Cheetor heads to do this.

    I was on board for this until the head close up. Slipstream is pure butterface.

    I am in love with this mold and have both FE Starscream and AM Skywarp, but I just couldnt bring myself to pull the trigger on the pricetag for the script service when only one of the figures even remotely interests me. And now that Ive sen some pics of the "new headmold" Im really not whelmed.

    Ill collect the BBTS exclusive DE Starscream and maybe the boxset with Bumblebee, but unless I find slipstream at a DEEP discount and not part of a 300 plus service or a 100 dollar preorder sh wont find her way to my shelf.

    what the hell is wrong with the headsculpt? It's what Slipstream's head looks like, just in the Prime aesthetic.

    I'm not quite sure what's going on with Slipstream's mouth. It kinda looks like a mustache.

    The original First picture had a more feminine face and color scheme.

    This newer Picture has a more male face sculpt and colors

    I think the angle and the photoshopping on the lips make it look masculine.
