That is one TOUGH looking vehicle...and maybe the first Animated vehicle mode that looks relatively rough and tumble.

I wonder who'll voice her. Tara Strong might not have that oompf (Scientific term) that Patrica Drake had. Role reprisal maybe? She looks big and strong, so with an appropreate (And good) voice, she'll be a winner. She certainly looks it.

So much for the earlier theory that she'll be a repaint/retool of Bulkhead. She looks sufficiently different to have her own unique mold.

If Tara Strong voices Strika, TFA is doomed.

I will wait to see better and coloured images of Strika before I make judgement. At the moment, I'm not too sure. I'd say it's okay.

Why is everyone so sure it will be a Female again, they could make it a male character for animated.. I would rather it be a male because of the beefy look of the bot.. I never liked it in beast machines with its lesbo butch voice.. would be nice to see it be as bad as it looks..

Would also be nice if people would stop putting huge water marks over the images, geeze just put them in the corner already..

First thought before reading anything was hey look, Roller!

Why wouldn't she be a female? She's got red lips, and she's Lugnut's consort (which most fans have taken into believing that they are married). If she were a he, he would be a Gay General of Destruction.

A gay Lugnut isn't too far out of the question though, what with his loyalty to his quee-... glorious leader.

'Fanatical loyalty' does not always equal 'romantic obsession'.

Besides, this isn't about Lugnut/Megatron, it's about Lugnut/Strika.

I'm pretty sure the guns or whatever they are on top aren't her legs, since I remember her feet where the wheels.

Looking forward to season 3 for sure!

The bio addresses Strika as "she" plus the writers have confirmed her as being female.

err wanna reread that quickly :wink:

I hope her feet aren't the wheels this time around, I didn't like how tipsy it made the BM Strika toy. As if Animated toys needed any more help being tipsy.

Think I misinterpreted what you were saying. It seemed to me that you were saying the guns on top of her alt mode are her legs... but maybe you just meant they looked like a pair of legs.

My bad! :oops:

Anyway, the old robot mode pic here:

Yeah, one you don't wanna mess with. They have a coloured pic on the cover of the latest Collectors Club mag, which I think I am allowed to link. She looks more obviously female when coloured:
