Mudflap's always been ugly but he still looks cool.
MindWipe is just awesome, simple as that, I thought he had Dinosaur legs though, what happened?

I think Brawn looks pretty good, more so from the front than from the back; haven't picked him up yet though. I do have both Dirge & Mudflap & I think they're better in person. Dirge's alt mode is very sleek w/ no kibble that's common w/ the jets; robot mode isn't as bad as I thought it might be. I was originally against Skids & Mudflap frankly because the characters annoyed me, but this repaint is actually pretty good IMO. Has good articulation too.

I am far less impressed by Brawn than I thought I would be.

I bought Dirge the instant I saw him in the store.......and I wish I had passed. Some will like him, but I really don't. Not my favorite plane-former.

There is no reason to buy another Mudflap figure, and anything "tuner" is just silly if you ask me. Taking something slow and making it less slow is accomplishing much. Anyway, the mold itself really isn't too bad.

Another Sideswipe is not worth buying, IMO. I have Swerve and the original Sideswipe, not to mention the HA version as well. This is a definite pass.

Dirge was a lot better than I thought he would be. Yes his arms are a bit out of whack but I like how everything folds back in smoothly and without gaps.

Does anyone else think Brawn looks like a Steel Brigade?

His head looks more like Seaspray, Shredder, or a solider from "The Red Spectacles" to me.

@Chuckdawg1999: Well, it's mostly Dirge's face I don't like, I thought about picking him up a few weeks ago but his FACE! Ugh I just couldn't take it, if I see Brawn, I will definitely get that, I can reenact his 1 hit kill shoulder death!

Also, racing stripes make everything go faster. Now if only they'd added some flames to it too...

Make the car go faster? Perhaps you're thinking of speed holes.

I love you two. Thank you for busting out Simpsonisms.

I didn't do it. It was like that when I got here. Blame the guy who doesn't speak English!
