Leave it to Dead Metal to have the word 'Pronz' in his signature.

With all respect, you've been drinking way too much 3rd party Kool-Aid to even suggest something like that.
He probably means that since Igear is putting out a Gears in the minibots line, a Swerve retool will soon follow.

Honestly, that Titanium Hotzone is one of the most underated figures of the last decade, maybe ever. He's an amazing tribute to the original figure and would probably scale better with most of your figures than the one you just saw, unless your collection is Voyager heavy.
As far as whether I grab any of these guys, prize will determine a lot of it for me. The legends Hoist seems most likely.

Now this, forget scale... the scale of his original character was fro price point only... this scale makes perfect sense. I missed getting the FE as I don't wish to pay $80 for a $25 mold... but I'll do it for this Brawn.

Hot Zone is very poorly scaled to fit with classics, and the lack of articulation really makes him fit even less. Basically over-sized legends.
Don't get me wrong, great figure, does not fit in well with Classics/G3. Now this Hot Spot needs a new head that is either black with red eyes and has a mouth plate, or blue with red eyes like the show model.
I sense a 3rd party company stepping up to fill that need.

he's close enough that he might work as Bulkhead anyway, depending what the head is like (looks remolded from the teeny tiny blurry picture) and really FE Bulk looked like a very nice toy. I'd actually been hoping they'd repaint it in some totally different colour-scheme, and feel this is maybe a little too close to the original, but it is sort of tempting.

A larger TF who's toy is the same size as average-sized TFs don't make for a good scale.Delicon wrote:He's roughly the same size as just about every Autobot deluxe from the Classicsverse lines (Mirage, Prowl, Hound, etc) as well as the Seeker mold.

Well they're making a proper combiner limb Brawl this year along with the Asian repaint, so it's possible for Springer to be in the 2013 line.Dead Metal wrote:Lol have you noticed how this is the 3rd Classics Springer Hasbro made and all of them have been lazy repaints, only this one is the first with a new head plus a new weapon!
You think they'll make a proper Springer next or just another repaint?
