Extensive Gallery of HFTD Deluxe Terradive

I suspect that he may get a new weapon too with the repaint. At least I hope so.

This is truely a creative and awesome figure.

Before I decide whether I get him I'll wait to see the repaint and like Mkall said, the repaint having a different weapon is pretty likely, especially considering Axor/Lockdown.

They can remold whatever, but for the repaint I'd love him to be all G2 Cybertronian mint green and silver, or mostly white so I can dye him green. My troop-buildin' fixation really needs another sweep-winged jet in those colors. I tried to use lightener dye and acetone to bleach a Deluxe Vehicon Jetstorm over the weekend, and, well, let's just say I gave another unfortunate Beast Machine a mercy killing instead of a new allegiance. (Instead of just warping, it actually shrunk. Weird)

Come to think of it, does anyone else think that in those colors, Terradive's an homage to the last of the Jetstorm repaints: KB exclusive Jhiaxus?

Regardless, I love this guy. Possibly the best jet in the Bayniverse not based on anything in the movies.

Love the name too. I was disappointed this year's Botcon toys didn't include Cybetron Jetfire/Dreadrock repainted into G2 Sky-Scorcher Terradive. Like the aforementioned Jhiaxus, an homage in name only, but a nice gesture.

Good lookin' figure for sure.

But since there's been talk of repaints, does anyone think a new head would make this mold a contender for Slipstream? I'm getting that vibe for some reason.

This guy would actually have the right jet form for Space Case at least, if only he was lighter colors. Painting white over darks would be a pain. Now if we could just get a decent Hooligan instead of that crap piece of plastic that was Fearswoop...

Nice figure. He's on my want-to-buy-but-will-have-to-import-cos-HasbroUK-sucks list. It's a shame that in one of the pics where he's supposed to look threatening he just looks like he's been kicked in the back of the knee!

Every time I see this figure all I can think of is repainting it as BW Depthcharge. The face and trident with the angled wings.

They said something about the new head remold of this, I think, but I can't remember.

The bend in his jet mode worries me a little. Other than that, a definite buy for me.

He looks like something out of Star Wars, without the intention to do so. Not good.

The more I look at this figure, the more I think you are right. I believe you just saved me some money.

Sad thing is, I love Star Wars, I do, but from the beginning I vehemently disagreed with the idea of the Crossovers.

It looks like it's working in reverse now. Instead of Star Wars being influenced by TFs, it's TFs that are getting the 'Wars treatment.

And I don't like it.

People complain about the movie designs being TINO...well this guy screams TINO at the top of his lungs.
