Still a little plain for me, the same problem the dotm one had, I think I'll be sticking to my Darksteel

At least it seems to have the metallic paint the original desperately needed, plus a better weapon.

"...guys?"

I like the deco but I still prefer Sidearm Sideswipe - I actually rather like the G2 like the Blue Sidearm Sideswipe that is covered in sponsor logos too. The FAB repaint is quite a nice colour too.

I was always a little disappointed in the Human Alliance - I think the gimmick harmed the toy more than most on that one.

With all this propensity for Retooling I kinda wish they'd do that to Voyager Ratchet he's not terrible but a few tweaks would help him a fair bit - even changes to the arms and weapons or a new head sculpt would be a start.

I guess it won't be to many months before the hype machine for the next Live action Movie and indeed the new animated movie begins again.

I hope they learned so lessons with AOE - such as early Power battlers were less popular than FAB was when taken as a whole - when judged by how many they made compared to how many they had left.

He's an exclusive, in Japan. They are usually standalone releases. What venue is he, anyway? AEON like Wheeljack before him?
