    That's interesting. Two reversable panels for the chest and crotch, I figured it would be two separate sides to the figure. Hmm.

    Interesting, I was thinking of Warbotron (my favorite take on Swindle, if only he was Deluxe-sized...). Neat to see that it works with the Sunbow look too.

    Nah, just wasn't counting him in this, cause while he is a core figure, he's actually meant to go with the rest of the line rather than being his own little thing like the G1 core figures, though I probably should've added the disclaimer

    Just saying the Vertebreak mold was also likely intended as its own thing ala Rattrap.

    It's weird how Hasbro has gone full Decepticon on the G1 core class. Even counting in Buzzworthy Bee and counting out Pretenders and Beast Wars, it's 2 to one Cons vs Autobots counting the all but confirmed rumors.

    Yeah, weird. And it’s not like there’s a shortage of Autobots; I mentioned a while back, but you could troop build with a Sideswipe and his many assorted redecoes.

    They're are very similar in mechanics but somewhat refined as they appear to have a sort of inner knee "sleeve" that totally seals the front of the gunbarrel, instead of leaving the joint exposed as the CW does, that not only aesthetically neatens up the front but also look like they have effect pegs for some blasting play there too.
    Which is neat but I believe there may be some trade-offs for that, and I do wonder if this version will be more "gunshy" than the CW?
