Ah, he always looked like a little guy to me, but if you like your Powerglide bigger than Prime thats OK with me. Think I might skip him.
It's nice to hear that an autobot with an alt mode of a heavily armed tank killing plane, isn't a minibot anymore. And sunstreaker looks like a smaller alternator, which isn't necessarily a bad thing. My only issue with the mold is the sides of his head seem a little weird compared to my memory, they're pointier or something.
Other than the knees I'm really pleased with Streaker! Powerglide really surprised me, and then to find out he's an Ultra completely blew me away, I approve!
yeah, that'd probably work too. jeez, i hope after all this rigamarole, that Powerglide is an A-10, it'd really suck to be justifying the Ultra size and have him turn out to be a puny little single-engine cessna.
eh, whatever. i'm not gonna bother, they can keep their super top secret photo, and i'll keep my money.
well I saw it, and I like it. At first glance, it does look a bit weird, but when you consider that Mirage and Grimlock and, hell, most of the first line didnt look exactly like their G1 selves, I'd say he'll fit in well enough. And judging by the Onslaught picture we saw, I dont think the rest of the line will be as skinny as this guy is, so I dont think this line is going to be completely movie-inspired. In fact, I hardly see any movie-inspiration at all despite the fact that that's the reason we're getting these (I'm not saying that's a good or bad thing, I'm just saying we expect the Classics and the Movie to look different, and I think they will). His vehicle mode reminds me of Energon Hot Shot, especially the headlights. The only thing I'm not entirely please with is his head looking too angular, but that's a very minor point and doesnt affect how fun the figure will probably be. Anyway, I wanted to be a completist with the first Classics, and since I want the line to continue, I still want to be one. And this figure certainly isnt making me regret the decision
I wonder if sideswipe will have his jackhammer hand???? kinda like how rodimus had the saw hand thing?
While waiting for pics to be officially released... Run you deluxe coneheads, try pickin' on ULTRA POWERGLIDE this time around. eh? Can't help but to think of G1 episodes where the seekers/coneheads always pick on poor lil' fella.
For those of you who have seen the pic, can you tell us if he looks close to the concept art that was shown of him last year?
