Weapon: Twin Sonic Cannons
No new head. Kind of disappointed, but the diving bell head would've been hard to pull off given the clearance restrictions of the mold.

I'm surprised it's shattered glass. The colours are fairly accurate to his G1 self.

Not as excited as I was when first seeing the mold, but he'll be a welcome addition to my collection nonetheless.

Ok, eating my words now.

You know, this makes Octopunch the second to keep his colors between his original continuity and Shattered Glass, the first being Jazz.
Top 5 Priorities:

1) BW Neo X-7 Elphaorpha
2) BW II VS-18 Powerhug vs. Autocrusher
3) Universe 2003 Night Slash Cheetor
4) RiD Landfill (regular, not the yellow)
5) BW Convobat (red) & Megalligator (purple)

Also looking for any clear Arms Microns, like Shadow (Gora & R.A.), Hellflame and Shining (O.P. and R.A.).

Preparing to move to the US!

SG Octopunch: Friend to ducks everwhere.

This is really pathetic. I mean he looks barely any different from Seaspray. It looks like some lazy custom someone threw together in one night.

I think it looks good for a repaint with no remold. I would have liked a remold though. Better choice for Octopunch is still the PCC commander.

What about Galvatron, Astrotrain, Alpha Trion, Arcee, Rampage, Divebomb, Demolishor, Big Daddy, Drench, Fitor, Goryu, Sky Lynx, and Thunderwing?

This is Sabrblade we're talking about. His ability to store trivial information about TV shows is downright superhuman.

Am I the only one here who's getting tired of shattered glass? One botcon of it was enough, lets move along now. I'd honestly be okay with an octopunch figure, even a straight repaint of seaspray, but why shattered glass? :(

I was excited... for this. Very much disappointed, will I ever find a decent Classics Octopunch someday?
