Both will make instant additions to my collection upon first appearances locally. And the inevitable repaint of Hubcap into a decepticon(hopefully a nice matte black) as well. On a side note, Hubcap just screams Bayverse Hot Rod/Rodimus to me. Anybody else get that from his aesthetics?

Well it's obvious because of the form, but I'm seeing more of a Laser Rod look to him,. specifically Volt, since their paint jobs are about the same. All he's missing is the flames.
As for Brimstone, I seriously get a Cy-Kill vibe from him with the way the head looks and the vehicle mode.

Hubcap looks quite nice. I like the alt mode for Brimstone, but his arms hurt his cause. I do have to say, I'm rather impressed with the scout class figures in general lately. I always skipped them in the past because they seemed to lack much complexity, but they've really come a long way. Brakedown would've made a great deluxe fig. Divebomb and his original deco (name escapes me ATM) is pretty nice, too.

I'm so going to pick up Hubcap and repurpose him into a Classics Chase.

Paint Hubcap blue and you got a "Universe" Kup

I was thinking that too, mainly because of the pipes on the arms.
I think Brimstone will fit in nicely with Human Alliance and give Knock-Out something to keep him occupied. I don't think Hubcap will fit into my collection as he seems out of scale with everything but I may have to buy him anyway.

Hubcap's head immediatly made me think of G1 Chromdome.
They are getting closer to classicsverse, but still a bit off.

I am really liking Hubcap. And is it just me, or do the lower legs give off a sort of "Gundam-esque" vibe?

Perphaps a bit Zeta Gundam. But not overly so.

Good grief, those alt modes are just sick! Loving Hubcap the most though..nothing screams violence and oilshed like a roadster. Yes, there will be a matte black repaint as a 'Con and I have a couple name suggestions: Scarface or Capone...

Hubcap's chin is a little weird, but he looks better than in the last set of pictures. I have no reason to pick him up, but I still might if I like how he looks in-store.
Pass on Brimstone, even though the alt mode is cool. Bot mode just ain't doing it for me.

I just noticed... neither of these bots seem to be sporting the movieverse faction logos.

Some pics I took a few weeks ago...

Yes. Especially after I just saw on Thursday (the 15th) a car almost exactly like Hubcap here on a flatbed in Hot Rod colors, complete with appropriate style flames. It was like passing a set. XD

Both look great to me. Especially impressed with Hubcap's legs and feet. I think Brimstone has rudimentary hands that haven't been unfolded for the pics, but he might look better with just the tire-saws, anyways.
On a side-note, I feel terrible for that Betta! Just because a Betta can survive in a very small amount of water with no active filtration doesn't mean that it is a happy or healthy environment for them
