    box is kind of lack luster, but the figures is what matters.

    It is a photograph of SMOKESCREEN.It is a disappointing topic. There is not the setting of the character in DREADWING and SMOKESCREEN.
    Their ability is unknown.

    G2 2010 DREADWING gallery

    Finally I contribute a photograph of DREADWING.
    I had an opportunity to talk with an employee of TAKARATOMY.
    He told it.

    -----日本語原文-----
    『今後もBOTCONに負けない限定品を企画しますよ』
    -------------------

    It looked like the employee of TAKARATOMY had rivalry toward BOTCON.

    PS:There was an opportunity to watch a large number of Asians and Westerners to TOY SHOW 2010 of this year.I discovered the blond man who wore a T-shirt of BOTCON2008. He is a hero.

    I'd be all over these if Dreadwing didn't have those horrid tattoos.

    I know what people are charging for importing these, but out of curiosity, how much were these retail?

    >DREADWING and SMOKESCREEN 5,500 yen
    >Elite Guard Prowl 2,500 yen

    These are the prices that are about the same as general sale thing.
    It is appreciation of the yen weak dollar now.It takes a considerably high cost to obtain these.DREADWING and SMOKESCREEN becomes popular at the Yahoo auction.

    I was interested in this set but the fact that it is pretty much the same deco but in the G2 colors seems kind of lame to me.

    I love that they're actually the G2 characters and not Movie guys.

    Yeah, the BotCon set went all out with colors to really sell the G2 concept, whereas this set is a black and white cardboard box. Not even a tray inside!

    I find it odd that they kept the tattoos and such instead of giving them more G2 accurate decos. Still, the colors are great

    Yeah I can't for the life of me figure out why they left the tats on him? Can't wait to see how he'll look with my Botcon set.

    Is it weird that I would want these almost solely because they use the G2 symbols? Fortunately, that's apparently not quite enough to push me to buy them.

    Probably because it saves them creating new paints masks, but still does something to echo the patterns that were on the tops of Dreadwing's wings in G2.

    Does it show how to combine them in robot mode?

    Or is this just a Fanmode going around?

    Funny, I was thinking exactly the same thing. The G2 symbols finally made me take notice of these...and now the price makes me go "meh."

    Love the box, but was quite sad when I saw the toys inside. Would have been better if they would have used the colors of the G2 toy considering that the Dreadwing and Smokescreen set were one of the least visually offensive toys of the G2 line.
