    Ok....so I have a bit of pocket change and I have the opportunity to pick up ONE of the four wal mart exclusives.....Big Daddy, Jolt, Divebomb and Grindcore




    which one should I pick up? They all look fairly cool to me

    Any recommendations? I've never seen one IRL, ive seen pictures and what not.....but I can't make up my mind?

    I liek the name Big Daddy though.... LOL

    I’d say all 4 but if I had to pick I’d narrow it down to Grindcore or Big Daddy.

    If this helps...I got Big Daddy first when I couldn’t afford the other 3 when I first saw them.

    Big Daddy is the best one. The Jolt is okay but the mold has been reused too much, Divebomb...well IMO the just mode is good but he bot mode sucks, and Grindcore is a good mold but just not one of my favorites

    grindcore looks cool, but ive got that mold as landmine (though i'm gonna sell him) and as rhinox, which i wont be sellling...so i cant realy justify buying that mold again...and i hate that jet mold...it sucked as TC and SW...and i still just hate it...his arm gun is weird, and his legs and ugh...everything about that toy i just cant stand...except his jet mode...

    get big daddy, best paintjob ever!!!

    grindcore is ok but a neon green conctruction vehicle who is an autobot is a bit blasphemus to me lol

    and the other two molds have accessories attached to their arms, Divebomb- gun arm, Jolt- shield arm. which i never really liked

    Out off the four of them Grindcore is by far the best mold, but Big Daddy is visually the best.

    I've got all four original molds and I do like them all, but my favorite is Grindcore.

    Big Daddy--besides the great name and homage, the mold is hands-down my favorite of the four.

    I really don't get all the love for Big Daddy. Yeah, he's cool looking in car mode, but that's it, imo. He is easily the 3rd best of the four, if you ask me. First two being either Grindcore or Jolt.

    Agreed. Grindcore would be #1 for me if he was a Con with purple accents. Buy both of these if you can, they appear to be shortpacked and I think will sell out fast.

    well..........i seem to have misinterpreted what my girlfriend said........i though she was letting me use the rest of our loose change to buy one of the four (payday is tomorrow so its ok)........so did i ever get the surprise of my life when i got home. I'll let the pictures do the talking (please excuse the pictures i dont have a computer at home and i can only send pictures to my email at work via cellphone......so these are cell pics)

    not only did i get these:
    [​IMG]

    i also got these:
    [​IMG]

    and
    [​IMG]

    and finally:
    [​IMG]

    (for those who cant see because of the poopy quality: Bid Daddy, Divebomb, Grindcore and Jolt. Then we have Jungle BoneCrusher and Stockade (finally). After that its Overcast and Jazz and finally Wreckage (finally as well).

    I love my gf :)

    Nice haul there! I was getting ready to chime in with picking Grindcore up first since he's only 1 per case, but I see that is a moot point now!

    Congratulations on the huge haul.

    Are you going to put up some reviews of the exclusives?
