Some of the RevolTechs have had an issue with ostrichneckery. Usually it's covered up by the rest of the design and is necesarry for any head movement at all.
This, hoever, is inexcusable.

And now I think we MUST immediately begin speculating as to who else might be added to the line in the future. Can Galvatron be far away?

If I were a betting man, and I am, I would say that it's a safe bet that Thundercracker and Skywarp will be limited much like Magnus. I would also fancy to say that the two after these two gorgeous peices would have to be Galvatron and either Grimlock or Jazz. The Japanese love G1 Jazz more then any other transformer for some reason, and the TF community as a whole love Grimlock.

However, as much as I would rather this not happen, I could see them doing Beast Convot and Beast Megatron.

I prefer Hybrid-Styles to Revoltechs myself but these look allright.

I really like these new Revoltechs. Hot Rod and Starscream are welcome additions. Now, bring on Grimlock and Smokescreen!

after they've repainted Screamer into Ghost Starscream, Black (Dead) Starscream, Thundercracker, Skywarp and Sunstorm. Heck, Rodimus could be redecoed into Black Rodimus and Crystal Rodimus.

Revoltech is made by Kaiyodo not Hasbro or Takara and they are not nearly as inclined to repaint stuff. You'll get one or two repaints of Starscream (as Thundercraker and/or Skywarp) and that will be your lot. If they made a Bumblebee Im willing to bet they would not repaint it into Cliffjumper because regardless of what Hasbro seem to think the two characters don't look the same, Soundwave to soundblaster on the other hand is a given, they love black repaints in Japan. There are actually very few repaints in the Revoltech line and most of them are exclusives.

I'm just hoping the erie similarities between the Revoltech releases and the Takara Mega SCF series don't stand, I.E. rodimus and Starscream are the last ones Produced.. with Skywarp being an exclusive so rare it'd make a pound of uncooked beef blush...

Pre-order made for the two.
Starscream is one of the best molds they can make. Whit one mold at least more 3 different Transformers whitout any alteracion, Skywarp, Thundercracker and Sunstorm. Whit a little ajustments we can have another 3, Thrust, Ramjet and Dirge.
Correction Starscream is the best and most lucrative mold.

That SS looks badass. I'm willing to overlook the neck for the metallic paintjob. Gonna look nice with Megatron.

Rodimus looks cool, but Starscream's long neck turns me away. But what I am more interested in is the robot figure that on the Revoltech Poster!

TENGEN TOPPA GURREN-LAGANN!!
