    Forgive me if this is old, I searched and couldn't find anything obvious:

    I just wanted to share that Justitoys has updated it's page with Prototype images of Swoop. Click on the "Secret Mystery figure" button then click the siloetted thumbnails for clear photos of the Prototype.


    New Prototype images of WSTF Swoop.


    Looks very nice IMO. The details came out fantastic, I cannot wait for coloured images. (Although I do hope Swoop has a blue torso to match the show like the others.)


    Hell, I can't wait to own them both!:)

    Hella Sweet! I'll definitely be finishing off this WST Dinobot series. I love how these guys get scaled down and still look awesome!

    Seconded! I am *really* hoping for blue instead of red.

    I'm also keeping my fingers crossed that they made him a little bigger so that he's more in scale with the other Dinobots while in bot mode. That's the one thing that always bugged me about the G1 versions - how tiny Swoop was compared to the rest.

    Seconded! It could work both ways here. They could go with toy accuracy and make him smaller, or continue with show accuracy and make him the same size. (Or slightly smaller) I am hoping for the latter.


    I wonder when We'll see the Missle launchers prototypes? Will they stiff fire at that scale, or will they need to be a bit bigger in order to fire?

    Pardon my bumping, but do we have a solid release date for these yet?

    On a different note, could we get this on the front page for convenience?

    me too! I saw they have a "pre-order" button, and it links to an email, but I never got back from them, anyone knows how to pre-order from them?

    Copy that1 One thing that always seemed off on G1 Swoop was the bulging beak. (Made him look a little like a duck)

    I dare say these WSTF Dinobots are better than the originals!:thumb

    I should imagine that'll be a repaint. I'd buy it.

    I hope not. Since they're so different, I'd think the anime accurate one would be standard, then have a toy accurate repaint special.

    Talk about saving the best for last. These two were always my favorite.

    Very cool, got mine preordered. If I could afford it, I'd be buying two of both.

    Sludge looks great. He always was a boring ass character in the comics, but I always thought he had the best transformation of the dinobots in the toy form. Most pose-able and solid.

    I'd really like to see the missle lauchers, any word on how many will be in each box? I got a G2 flamethrower and red snarl that will feel kind of left out if they don't got a toy as well.
