    Not all that much change, the flame job should look good in vehicle mode, other than that it doesn't have enough difference to get me to buy the mold again. I would have prefered the Black Nitro Convoy released in Japan

    Kind of reminds me of Energon Starscream.

    Looks interesting. But I think I'm just gonna stick to collecting the show only characters from this line, with the exception of Dark Scorponok and Dark Fangwolf.

    I kind of get a Red Alert feel to it.

    I am sorry if this is mentioned elsewhere already, but is this figure supposed to be a he or a she?

    I am happy enough with just Nitro Convoy, though.

    Not the greatest colour scheme, but not the worst either. If they'd done something to brighten up the head a bit and draw some attention there it would have really helped.

    Hopefully since this toy isn't supposed to be Override anymore (thank goodness) they'll change the cyber key back to silver.

    Ya know what would have made this better? Faction swap with better colors; a dark blue perhaps or midnight purple something to say that this mold could be a Decepticon for the speed planet instead, I mean there aren't that many D-Cons for Velocitron compared to Autobots.

    Then again; aside from Red Alert seemingly swtiching over to the Decepticons, Brushguard and Nemesis Breaker most of the repaints have maintained their base factions.

    Still; Doubleclutch needs something, I can't put my finger on it, but he/she doesn't strike me as worth owning doubles of.

    Kinda spiffy but I don't think it's quite spiffy enough for me to buy. Space is getting tight after all, and I want Dark Nitro Convoy.

    I wonder if there will be any simmiliarities Bio-wise to G2 gobots Double Clutch.

    Either way I will buy he/she/it but that should make that cyber key silver not gold.

    It will look good with Nitro Convoy, Dark Nitro Convoy, and Override.

    That image does look a bit rough though, but it has potential.

    I'm extremely hooked on the Galaxy Force cartoon. Hasbro can toss a piece of poop with a force chip and I'll buy it. Oops, already did ... damn Dirt Boss.

    Ugly. Looks like the goth lovechild of Override and Energon Starscream. :thumbdown

    Is this the one shown at BotCon this year? I seem to remember the repaint having a more geometric pattern to it, rather than the flame pattern on this thing.

    I don't remember the gray, I thought there was white there instead...

    Ah, well. Still looks fairly good.

    That's what I recall too, I wonder if this is just a bad picture of what is really white.
