Sorry for the double post. Between my browser and this new format I have given serious consideration towards ditching this site altogether. Sorry, but this just is not working with my system. Again, excuse the double post, I've been fighting with this all *%$& day!

I like that they're making homages to obscure characters. Big Daddy is definitely a must buy. I wish they would have carried over the flames on Jolt as well. Divebomb I don't consider an homage to the G1 Predacon. If they would have used E-Divebomb, then that would be different. Grindcore looks like a nice substitute for Pre-BW Rhinox.

Big Daddy I may get. Love his look and love the mold.
Grindcore I am defiantly getting. A new head, a few mods, and he will become Scrapper, left foot of doom. The colors already work so i won't have to worry about paint chipping on him. Plus that means my C-Landmine won't have to get butchered for the project.
The other two I can skip, I like my G2 jolt fine, its a nice homage but not a huge fan of the mold.
And Divebomb though looking like a cool G2 homage is such a crap mold.

I'm usually not top thrilled about repaints but in this case I am very pleased. Granted: do not match the movie concept but I don't mind (I actually like them
because of that).
For a moment I thought
Divebomb was a repaint of (Movie)
Dreadwing.
And I love the name given to the
Cybertron Landmine repaint! \m/

What is Grindcore based on, doesn't look familiar.
G2 Roadblock.
http://www.tfu.info/1995/Decepticon/Roa ... dblock.htm
How is he in anyway based on that?
The origanal version of Grindcore's mold is this.
Better RED than DEAD!
Better still RDD!

Lovin' these!

Longs for the days of G1 where we only had to worry about Megatron, Soundwave and Laserbeak wanting to be Autobots, Swoop calling himself Tracks and Slingshot calling himself Slingslot!

Yes on all of them, even Divebomb. My Decepticon army needs jets.
Likes jets, red cars, and big black trucks...
