    I never liked Huffer as a character but this figure looks so nice I might be somewhat tempted to pick this guy up, to give my Autobots more diverse colors if nothing else. I like that his vehicle mode is styled as an airport tug sort of thing that makes more sense at a smaller size than a regular truck.

    Marketing department probably urged them not to put a spider on the box.

    It's not that close. I know a lot of people have been going on about this, but other then a vague similarity(Mostly the sloping part above the barrel) it's not really the same design.

    Airrazor was the only Season 1 cast member I ever had as a kid. As such he holds a special place in my heart and I can\'t wait to get her.

    Looks pretty close. I’m guessing the target vehicle is something from that segment. When pictures of Kingdom Huffer originally came out though, I personally thought it looked like a near perfect match for a ~2019 Mack LR. (usually a garbage truck) I figure it could make a great CHUG Garagebot, which is something I want to do if the figure is cheap enough.

    Cyclonus as well. Possibly because of their unconventional and scary (to some folks) alt-modes?

    Now I suddenly want Huffer, knowing he has a one-hit-kill weapon as a sidearm.

    Or, since I’m a graphic designer, the layout just flowed and worked better. The images they had may not of laid out as well the other way and they just picked something that flowed better.

    Yep, it could absolutely be as simple as that.

    Very much looking forward to Airazor and Huffer! I definitely like what I see there - especially Airazor.

    If they gave her better deco I'd be more inclined to buy her. As it is, I'll stick with my T30. I wish they'd give us one with the T30 colors (the black really works for her), light-piping, and a better gun, but I think that's too much to hope for.

    As do I. I started collecting with Siege and it seems like those have gotten worse and worse. There have been times I worried about breaking something when removing it.

    All look terrible, except for Huffer. I wonder why they\'re re-releasing ER Arcee, she was the worst Transformers figure ever since the 2007 Legends Megatron. Thrilling 30 Arcee was way better. Also, thank god we finally have a good Huffer figure after 37 years.

    I'm concerned with how well Huffers weapon holds up, It looks to split down the length in Vehicle mode.

    Oh great, we got a diagram now.

    Yeah, it's similar, but still not on a level that makes it suddenly copyright infringement, was all I was trying to say...Maybe a homage, I donno...I knew I would regret saying anything when I hit post.
