What was that he said about this guy being the first Autobot TFP figure to get an Autobot logo?

I'd say it was a functional figure but nothing thrilling. Will not be getting Kup but would like to get Ironhide.

Damn!! So Ironhide is a simple Kup repaint. I was hoping his head would be different. There is something about that trap-like mouth I just don't dig. It doesn't look like his head is on a ball joint so no hope for a 3rd Party to fix this, this, this mess! :VEHI:

The RID deluxe Autobots have had no Autobot logos on them out of the box. Some of the Decepticon ones have. Kup has one put on by Hasbro. Nothing amazing but people have mentioned it in other places. Maybe as Kup is unseen they didn't have to worry about screen accuracy.

I haven't tried it but there is a screw on the back of the head. I think it could be split to make a Dr Wu style face plate. The head is on a post with a ball joint at the bottom but it's in a tricky place to get out and stiff. Not sure if the head would pop out alone.
There is hope for a head but I doubt one would get made. Look forward to seeing what customisers do with him. They will make one for sure. 8)

I thought I would show both of the recent Kup figures off. But none of the TFP RID line are big compared to last years Generations range.
As you can see from the Bot line up he scales nicely in robot mode with the other Autobots

With a bit of retooling and repainting, they could have marked this figure as Gears and made money off of the G1 crowd that wants updates of all the original G1 figures.

Ah well...

No. Trust me, the Cyberverse Commander figure is MUCH better than this guy. No cheats, no excess pieces hanging off like the hood kibble. Only thing that sucks is he's smaller than a Deluxe, but he's a great mold.

Had they just upsized the Commander mold...he'd have been fantastic.
