    What's up with that Whirl is that it's an absolutely awesome looking update of the classic G1 toy.


    -ZacWilliam, can not wait. Just need a Roadbuster to match.

    Man the eye on Whirl is just terrible it's like it's not even there. And to make things worse it's red.

    Painting that over with yellow the moment I open it.

    while i can appreciate the updated G1 Whirl, i was kind of looking forward to a MTMTE Styled Whirls with the twin rotors and chicken legs. that Rhinox is amazing though and Doubledealer makes the blitzwing mold look beautiful

    Ya whirl is mediocre at best by the looks. Rhinox is the best of the 3 so far.

    It is.

    But a MTMTE Whirl would have been ten million times better. For one, it wouldn't look like a bunch of squares slapped together. This toy perfectly evokes the design of the original, but the original design is just flat out awful.

    MTMTE Whirl is unique, sleak as hell, dangerous looking and yet still evokes the character and history of Whirl. This is... blech.
