Looks good but i'll wait for the Henkei version as it will have chrome.

This figure should have a gun of some sort and the crane should be able to be stored on his back.

I'm getting Grapple when I see him in stores but I wish they could have given him a gun of some sort guess Hasbro doesn't share the same enthusiasm for guns as I do huh "sad face"

Yep, it's the mid-line rebranding for Generations and Hunt for the Decepticons.

So Generations & HFTD are merging into a single line?

This guy looks really good. I'm loving this G1 lovin'. This guy will great next to Inferno and Red Alert. Hopefully, Hasbro will give us an updated Hoist

His head was also black in some episodes, just like the toy. Can't think of what episodes off hand, but yeah, most of us think of him from the "solar power tower" ep where it was yellow.

Maybe they'll tell us exactly what "solar storm" means in his bio? shrugs This toy is awesome though, I might pick it up.

As for Revealing the Shield, am I the only one who had trouble getting rub signs to work as a kid? I mean they would never change for me, unless I put hot water on them or something! Probably because I had cold hands I guess. heh.

Hasbro is actually kind of pissing me off right now. Don't get me wrong, I love all this Neo-G1 without it being all Geewunny (like, the toys don't PANDER too much to old aesthetics and are willing to make updates to style and such) but why couldn't they have had these toys out when I was living at home and had no rent to pay? By the time I get financially able to actually collect the Classics-verse toys, I'll have to pay triple the price for each toy on the aftermarket...oh WOE IS ME!

And I still haven't gotten a Classics/Henkei Optimus Prime cuz I never found him in stock... and well, he's stupid expensive on the aftermarket (end of bitching)

Loving that he has that full crane! Hope I can find an Inferno at some point so I can have both.

Solution: Move back home!

It would appear so, especially with the pics of the Roddy and Cyclonus two pack.

Why is he yellow? I thought it was going to be orange, like the G1 figure!
