    Uninspiring to say at least.

    I am sticking to TF Prime line.

    I'm in for Hot Spot and the deluxes. I skipped both Cybertron-repaint Classic Springers (and this one has a sword), so this one is acceptable. Don't have either Prime Cliffs either. Wheelie having his slingshot helps. And Springer & Wheelie getting "modern earth modes" is right in line with the treatment of most of the other Season 3 characters in Classics lines, so I can accept it.

    It is a pity Hasbro apparently can't be bothered to release these outside Asia, but since I'm skipping Prime and most of the FoC stuff, I can deal.

    Freaking weakness! How did you know?

    If I end up getting that stupid repaint, I'm blaming you.

    Wheelie looks pretty bad, stoked about having a repaint of breacher.

    Springer, Wheelie (the shame!) and Swerve are probably getting bought if I can get hold of them. The scouts aren't looking bad, so Brawl and Laserbeak are a 'maybe' for now. Hot Spot doesn't look bad either, but do I need a third version of that mold?...

    Megatron is probably getting bought to fight my Battle Tanker-ed RTS Prime too. Oh Hasbro/Takara, you do know how to trap me into a purchase.

    Why is Dead End in Wildrider's paint job? Looks sweet, but I'm not sure why they didn't just call him Wildrider.

    No real interest in any of them though.

    I fear the case assortments on these... Or is that mostly a US problem?

    I want Hot Spot, Megatron, Swerve, and Cliffjumper. The others... will probably be sold in the same cases so I'll end up with the Voyagers and deluxes anyway. I really hope BBTS carries these...

    Big deal. The seeker mold is the King of repaints. There are literally twenty or so repaints of that one. The Inferno mold is a reusable mold in that vein. Hell, I made a custom Motormaster out of that mold and made it appear to be a semi with a trailer very easily. I'm sure they aren't done with that one.....


    In my OP, these repaints suck, except Hotspot and suprisingly the cliffjumper one. Although I couldn't look at it in vehicle mode and convince myself it is CHUG. Brawn for the same reason, although his is just ridicious. There is no way one could look at that mold of Bulkhead and convince themselves it is g1 Brawn. Wheelie is ridicious too. Jazz's mold is very tall and makes his form very unbelievable. I felt like they almost stole my idea for Springer, because I customed him with that mold over a year ago and sold it to an ebayer. Neutral about Swerve.

    At least Hasbro has not forgotten about the CHUG line though.....

    None of these really interest me after all. Springer's head doesn't look right on that body, and the same goes for Brawn (especially for Brawn). Hot Spot and Wheelie are the two I really like out of these, but I don't think I'll go out of my way to get either. Megatron is pretty cool, too, but it's the same deal as with Gigatron: G1-esque head on that distinctly Bludgeon body just doesn't work. I like that they gave new, character-specific weapons to Springer and Wheelie.
