Nice, I do love the Decepticon headmasters. They just seem to have a bit more about them character and alt mode wise compared to the autobots.

Some color helps a lot. I'll probably break down and get him. But it isn't a lock for me and I'd rather use my money elsewhere these days...

The Toyworld version looks better.

This is the first FP Headmaster that I think is clearly off-target.

I'm alright with the liberties taken. It doesn't kill the homage for me. I do wish FP or ToyWorld would have given their version a reddish pink painted visor. I prefer the cartoons visor to that of the G1 toy.

Ya know, after looking through the feedback on this guy, and how people are annoyed at the cockpit chest, but I must say that I like that chest more than the original's boring chest.

I'm excited to finally have a Skullcruncher! I think I'm going to have to reorginize my shelves really soon to make more space.

double post, also, technically, his chest was the cockpit originally as well. it just didnt have windows. at least it's accurate in that way

Agreed on both counts. I really like the design, and it's gonna be great to add him to my collection. :D

Im excited about this. I got the BBTS e-mail that it will be in stock soon and I will be hitting ship most likely. Toyworlds Skullcruncher was a joke. It looked more like a combination of a Komodo dragon and G1 Snaptrap. This looks more like a croc to me. While the chest is slightly different, its not too far off from G1, especially the Marvel comic images on TFwiki. Obyiously, the gatoor Prime repaint was factored into the chest design. But to me, the one they went the most left field with is still Mindwipe.

Yeah, I'm enjoying this release schedule from MT's & FP lately. Seems like they are trickling out 1 or 2 figures a month. I will be happy to have this Skullcruncher in hand soon to see what it's all about.

No clue. Last I heard, Venom was going to be a fembot but that's been over a year ago. I want the war bugs that FansProject showed prototypes of that were remolds of the first 3 insecticons.
