Tell IDW to paint ANY character black and write a backstory, and watch the fandom break out your wallets. I bit on SG Drift just for the hell of it, so Im gonna pass on this repaint.

You do know that this toy is based on something from years and years ago rather than something recent, right?

Oh yeah, I forgot about those. Maybe there's hope for that Beast Hunters whoever into Beast Wars Silverbolt.

Unless I only imagined that.....

It was grimstone/darksteel into silverbolt.

That's it. I wonder if any of those other ideas will eventually pop up through eHobby.
Aaaaaand now I must stand corrected. It turns out that this ISN'T based on the Million Publishing-proposed redeco of Drift. That one wasn't Deadlock like we thought it was. Turns out that the fan vote redeco of Drift was based on AOE Drift colors instead:

So this means............attention all Mods, please correct the byline then to AOE Drift recolor and not Deadlock.

What do you mean by this?

This e-HOBBY redeco is Deadlock.

I'm just saying that the one Million Publishing proposed back for the fan vote was based more on AOE Drift than Deadlock.

So this is still Deadlock?

Yes. This isn't the Million Publishing one. This is e-HOBBY.

Yet another toy I didn't know I needed. Deadlock/Drift is my fifth favorite Transformer and this figure is almost too awesome for his own good.

A small update for those of you waiting on eHobby exclusive Deadlock - the black and red Decepticon (p)redeco of the Generations Drift figure - as their official website has added a shot of the box for the toy, and the cover for the accompanying comic 'Deception Slaughter Soldiers' by Makoto Wakabayashi. Check both our mirrored below!

slaughter soldiers :lol:

That's awesome

Very curious about the comic. It's a Legends "spin off", but uses a character from IDW's lore. Or, it could be just a Legends Universe version of Deadlock instead of the main version, but then again, that cover suggests a more serious tone than what the more humorous Legends manga tends to offer. Guess we'll find out soon.

It's been a while since we last heard about the eHobby exclusive Legends Deadlock repaint of Generations/United Drift, but thanks to Twitter Transformers fans naototsushima and gikogakodo we have two in-hand images of the red and black (for the most part) Decepticon fighter. Check them out below!
