    That looks freaking awesome. He reminds me of a certain G1 character, can't put my finger on it though...

    Scamper is looking stylish in blue shades.

    Scamper looks great and perhaps simple and fun transformation. Also like his gun, double barreld just like the old gun on the back off Six-Gun

    I can't wait for Hasbro's Metroplex to go pre-order and I do like the upgraded Scamper. The one thing that bothers me about Scamper though, I don't like his red head. It's not a dealbreaker by any means since I can always just repaint it, but for some reason that I can't put my finger on, it bothers me a bit.

    With the ginormous chin it looks more like "Jay Leno-Plex".

    How is it possible in the year 2013 we still get pictures of eagerly anticipated Transformers toys mistransformed? It's a giant troll. Backwards facing hands on Scamper made me laugh.

    I thought the same thing, but on second glance, maybe not. It looks like he has an open hand that is covered that flat car part. You can see his thumb and fingertips all pointing in the correct directions.

    Exactly. I'm pretty sure that his hands aren't backwards. In fact based on the transformation, they can't be any other way.

    Very nice looking I like that they broke up the black parts.

    It's been photoshopped beyond all recognition so I can't tell if that's supposed to be white or light grey plastic on his thighs, upper arms, and inner chest.

    Is it..... Scamper?

    Just kidding. :)  His head has a Bumper-esque look, maybe that's who you're thinking of? Anyhow, I like this guy. I like his fancy new red head, it ties him in with Metroplex's red highlight bits. And his alt mode is great, a perfect update for the little guy.

    Not too fond of the red face on Scamper, but if I disliking it THAT much in-person, a black sharpie can take care of that. Overall really liking the update on him. Now we just need to sit and wait on the inevitable 3rd party Six-Gun / Slammer add-on...

    Some Transformers fans are ridiculous. The original G1 Scamper was just a tiny unpainted accessory. And now Hasbro is trying to make him a full fledged character with actual color & they complain about it. They still want the solid black cheap crappy looking unpainted thing.

    I surely don't just wondering what those pieces are colored, love the update, glad they broke up the pieces with color.

    Nice update.

    I do get a Chromedome vibe from him. If his lower arms were the same color as his shoulders...

    I'm sure Scamper has never been a part of a minstrel show.
