And it's predecessor is the Cosmo Countach.

 

Ditto. I don't think this will sell out any time soon either, none of the Diaclone inspired stuff really does with Tigertrack being the lone exception I think.

I'll probably wait for retailers to put it on sale, and if it sells out in the meantime no big deal because I'm sure Omnigonix will do a red one too. If it was the police version, I would have jumped on it immediately.

 

Anybody got a release date yet? I'm ready for this.

hmmm I wonder why they decided to paint the window dividers in alt mode for this guy? Not that its a bad thing, just interesting. Looks really cool though.

 

Hey yeah. It's fine. Differentiates him and Swipe

 

He looks pretty slick in red. Definitely gonna pick this up once he's released.

 

he's pretty in red, sure picking him up

 

Better looking than the original pics. Might reconsider picking this guy up.  

 

I noticed in the card that Sideswipe looks exactly like this guy, so was Sideswipe originally supposed to have huge engines on his top and then they changed it

 

Misassembled prototype, eh?

... D'oh.

Oddly though, it was the sprue marks on the front of the car that I noticed first.

 

Mine came with mis-assembled shoulders too. Good thing it was a quick fix though.

LOL that the repaint of Sunsurge will be out before the Omni version of Sunstreaker is out.

 

Oh wow, how did you fix it, Fabian? Or rather, what did you use to remove the pin?

EDIT: I just swapped the shoulders over, no need for pin removal.

I hate you, Maz.

I don't do 3P MP. But thanks to your pics, I'm getting this to join Tigertrack, Road Rage, Clampdown, Bluestreak, and Exhaust. Sure it may get replaced by a TT version someday, but I can't help myself...

 

  has to be done, just like the inevitable police deco.

now that would be awesome if u ask me mate

 

The only thing I personally don't like is the yellow ears. I know the Diaclone version had them too, but somehow they don't fit because there is absolutely no other yellow on it. Maybe I will paint them also red when I have it...must see it in hand first....

 

Shoulders fixed, let's get on with the ceremony!













Loving it.

Very nice pics!! That's the same display I want. "Reinforcements from Cybertron" I'm calling it. Delta Magnus will lead them someday. I'm going to put a rub symbol over Exhaust's Decepticon symbol so no one knows his true agenda.

If they weren't yellow I'd be disappointed. Sure, it makes his head identical to Sunstreaker, but it is what it is.
