    ouch, the lame-ness is hurting my eyes. I think this is the most boring-looking TF ever made.

    Seconded. At least Swerve had a new head. This is the laziest thing I have seen Hasbro do in years. I'll pass.

    Wow. Hasbro may have finally made an Alternator I have zero desire for. Really, why on Earth didn't they just make Trailbreaker or whatever they could have called him? Or at least give us some cool paint apps, a new head, or something?

    Is that the final version? It looks like he even has less paint apps than Hound or Swindle. :(

    Looks...okay. I'll pick him up if I have the extra $ laying around, since I love the Jeep mold.

    Here's to hoping Reprolabels will do something to spruce him up with.

    Yup, still pretty ugly. Funny how his gun isn't in the pic, I wonder if he comes with it?

    And someone would buy this as opposed to Swindle why?

    Buh, all the stores I've been to barely have any TFs at all, never mind Alts, possibly checking TRU tomorrow to buy my first TF in multiple years oh what an exstatic event!!

    I can't believe I will have to spend $22 on this... :(  Maybe if it's still warming shelves for the rest of the year until Christmas and is put on sale, I'll buy it! :D

    I have to agree with everyone else's assessment so far. This is an Alt. on the 'Do-not-buy' list. As if there aren't enough Swindles clogging the shelves already. Hasbro would do well to take the advice that 'the third time is not the charm' for this line.

    Sometimes even the second one isn't, either, but we accept those because the line has certain extra needs.

    what you don't understand is that this s secretly swindle trying to disguise himself in with the autobot forces......

    lame and a shelf warmer.

    So just when does Alternator Mirage and the Jets come out?

    Agreed! It's so sad that we get two versions of the toy that was supposed to be Trailbreaker, but neither of those versions are Trailbreaker. I hate that!
