    they both look cool Oil slick actually looks like a nice revision of the original rather then some totally random repaint

    The first Oil Slick didn't sell and this one would sell even worse. It may be for the best that it never comes out.

    Well, when you post 3 times in a row like this, that tends to happen....

    The "official" pics are always photoshopped and sprused up to look super-fantastic. Still, it's easy to draw opinions about how people will feel about the actual releases based on these pics.

    I don't know if it's just me, but I was expecting more from the "and more" part of the title. Was it that tough to say "Rodimus and Oil Slick"? It seems to imply way more pictures than delivered.

    Rodimus Minor looks good, though he's also a very good example of how extreme photoshoping can go horribly wrong. Oil Slick looks good too. I'll definitely be getting RM, and most likely OS too (since I never got the first one). I really like RM's bow weapon. Looks a bit big in alt-mode, but it's pretty much perfect in bot-mode. Too bad there aren't any pictures of Blackout and Wingblade Prime yet.

    Agreed. The "and more" part implies that there would be at least two more in the thread.

    I love Rodimus, although something does look off in his face sculpt.

    Hrrmm.... maybe if.... okay, I have no idea how I got "Strika" from that. What the heck were you guys saying!?

    Anyways, Oil Slick looks like a pretty nifty repaint, I had a feeling they would have done a more show-accurate paint job on him if the line had continued. As it is, though, if they had to drop one planned repaint from the line, I'm glad it is/was this one.

    I like to see these sold as a twin pack with a more general release red Rodimus as a single carded item.

    I think the world can do with out another Oilslick as a single carded item he was to much of a shelf hugger to sell again one of my local stores has 11 of them.
