    This is so...sad. always loved the Crosscut deco. I have T30 Crosscut and just comparing the decos is sad. The silver looks nice but couldn't they have used the silvery plastic similar to er bluestreak? That paint budget could have been used to paint the wheels black with silver rims. The red biceps just look uncanny to me for some reason. My last complaint are the doors. Why are they just skids deco sheet? They really couldn't have just painted a black stripe running down the length of the door?

    *Sigh* I'll pick this up but idk how much enjoyment I'm going to get out of this.

    Looks like a 3P will have to give us black wheels :lol 

    Looks great otherwise. Can’t wait to add him to my Diaclone collection!

    I never liked wheel clips, but this one just looks wrong being in red. Like a mouth with lipstick

    Interesting choice on the vehicle mode deco. I am certainly not a fan of the red tire but I love Crosscut so I'm in. I usually dont care about things like unpainted rims but in this case I think I might actually paint the tires.

    if you've got T30, don't let them win. I've bought almost every diaclone rehash they've done here, as unimpressive as a few of them have been, but this is just my line in the sand. This is lower then low-effort, this is basically no-effort.

    So, generally I like the Crosscut coloration and was actually temped to get him, but the red tires and red guns look farking stupid and I can't even replace the tires with an upgrade kit because the back tires are pinned in.

    Well I was planning on getting this guy, but I don't like the red wheels so it's back to waiting for another redeco for me. Maybe they'll do green Skids and Screech at some point? Would make a hell of a Selects two-pack. As long as they both have black wheels lol

    I really wish more thought was given to what compromises need to be made. :/

    The whole debacle with Hasbro and wheels in recent years is absolutely appalling.

    The red wheels are bad but, dang that silver is looking fine. I’ll take it, as I have no Crosscut, and his colors are sweet
