It's like moving backwards. They're great toys for what they are. What they are is old though and quite overused at this point.

I don't think so. Check the alt mode picture again. That faction symbol is obviously red and not purple in any shade, contrast or no.

That's one way of looking at it, though I think that they wanted to use the G1 molds so they invented the fiction to support their use.

It's a set of seven figures. They just took pics of these two just because. They all come together in one set, though.

Soundwave, Ratbat, and Slugfest. Blaster, Rewind, and Ramhorn. And Solarbot.
