EVIL Rhinox colors

I know it's just test colors, but they look really good. Kinda a shame they are unlikely to ever be used yet we get the Bruticus mold in all sorts of odd colors.

Already pre-ordered a while back. Was the only FOC I was surely going to get, aside from kickback. Looks sick, and I can't wait to get it. The jet mode looks pretty encumbered with the huge guns, but... well.. if Shockwave's alt. mode can fly, so can this. Can always figure out some other guns for em too. This will be my definitive Starscream in my collection - love the cybertronian designs from high moon.

Does no one care how beautiful this mold is? I mean, it's nearly spot-on with the game model in both modes (as spot-on as modern engineering can get), and isn't hollow in the slightest!

That's exactly what I thought when I saw the pic. Before I read the headline I thought they were promoting some new Rhinox or Beast Wars line and got all excited.

I guess this is what Rhinox would look like were he a FoC Seeker :P.

I must be high or something. I thought Rhinox was sand brown and grape green, not dark maroon and sea green.

I think that mold looks pretty ace. One of my bigger wants from the games and I'm happy to see it finally happen.
:BOT:

Love the fact that they have him in an alternate "gerwalk" mode ala Robotech. Reminds me of an Alpha Fighter in that mode.

Rather curious though since everyone seems to be remarking on the color scheme, I'm wondering exactly what part of "Test Shot" most of you seem to be unable to understand?
On what planet does any part of the caption read that these are Starscreams final colors???
FFS, you folks are making fools of yourselves. #-o

I suppose that all depends on which version of Rhinox you're referring to ;).

Besides, the color in the images looks kinda washed out anyway and figures usually look a bit different in person than they do in pics.

I'm fully aware these aren't the final colors. I was commenting on the colors simply because it reminded me of an existing character, and I thought it was neat.

If I thought this was seriously the final colors I'd be saying something like "Crap, why would Hasbro screw up Starscream's color scheme so badly?"

Well, maybe not sea green, but the color layout is otherwise uncannily similar.

Sure buy!!! FOC figures have been fun. This looks like it will not disappoint. Either way, I want this to come in all variants of seekers :D

Agreed. The vehicle mode would make a great Triggerhappy, and the robot, with a new headsculpt....still wouldn't look much like Triggerhappy. Still 1987-88 fans can't be choosers.

This makes me very disappointed in the Prime and Jazz toy. I just saw some Kickback pics and they are both almost spot on accurate. The kibble is hidden very well. The only thing I worry about is paint. If Hasbro would take their time on their stuff and stop rushing out better known characters to little kids, maybe people would buy their toys more. Overall love SS and Kickback and I'm looking forward to buying them. :D :D :CON: :CON: :CON: :CON:

Best Seeker mold ever imo.

However they release Thundercracker/Skywarp I'll get 'm.
Hopefully they do a head remold and also make Slipstream.

They're pretty good at remolding figures, FOC Sideswipe looks great, the remold of Shockwave is pretty different. And the remold figures come with EXTRA weaponzzz.

Now all I need is WFC Arcee.

Hasbro pls

I'm glad SS has fist instead of open hands... shame about Kickback. Still, overall KB looks better than the initial tiny distant shots we had.

Nah, she's too lean for this mold. Give her her own mold. ;)

I will be buying Kickback the second I see him.

Don't care about Starscream. I already have plenty of him.
