that thing looks like dark scorpinok wrolled around in a kindergarden fingerpainting session and then got charged with "Allspark Power"

Probably the worst color scheme I've seen on a Transformer.

BotCon's 2010 theme was G2, for you newbies.

How can you? My eyes just burned when I tried to look at it.

Ha. I just had this guy out assembling all the G2 redux characters... including G2 Ramjet and Thundercracker. They all look fantastic together...and this guy may be my favorite out of the lot. Loved the retro theme.

He's a nice black repaint... with a little extra flair to keep him from being just another Nemesis/Scourge character. Fantastic nod back to earlier eras. Great giveaway of a giant figure, too. Bravo there.

I'd enter, but I'd rather someone new get one of these guys who doesn't already have one!!! :grin:

It looks like the Easter bunny pucked and called it a transformer #-o

This guy looks better surrounded by the rest of the flashy G2 Redux set. On his own however, it would make a nice stand in for a classics Black Zarak. However, I don't tweet. Honestly, I just can't think of anyone important enough to follow tweets from.

curse my refusal to use twitter! Donkey Punch was one of the few Botcon 2010 figures I actually wanted! I love super-colourful Action Master homages and this guy was #2 on my list of must haves in that category (First was SG Thundercracker, who I already got)

Primus, that thing is ugly, and the pic looks like a digi-bash. Digi-bash or no, I love how ugly this thing is and I would SO want one!

Also: They need to do a G1 Repaint of this guy.

Also: Also: I like coffee too. >:oP
