Im not gonna make some comment like Im drooling all over or pissing in my pants, but I will say that the figure looks great and I look foward to buying him !!!

I wish Blurr was more G1 accurate like Kup...

Look at the stock. It's neither cane nor sword. It's a big-ass space winchester! Kup will kick your ass old-west style.

So yeah. One word: wow.

Very nice looking Kup there. I may give the rifle (or Blurr's) to Perceptor though

He really is deluxe size right? Something about the arm panels over his hands reminds me of scouts... but I imagine the earlier listings we saw said deluxe?

Hmm, United Lugnut is looking good, I was just saying that the Hasbro one didn't have enough purple and had the wrong shade of green.

I see the stock on the gun now. That's a crappy gun though. Dude should really have come with his Targetmaster.

Awesome sauce! Anyone else think the mold would be good for a red Ironhide repaint?

It looks to me like it's definitely a Deluxe. There's no way that's a Scout. Plus, I think Hasbro stated that all of the Generations/United figures are going to be Deluxes.

This figure looks like a piece of ****. I am going to call it "**** Piece".

It would've been nice to see his Targetmaster, but I think this fits his character well.

Throw in a little DR. SMOOV! That just made my morning.

I've got to say, I'm very relieved that Kup is a pickup truck and not a car as someone mentioned in an earlier forum. Also like to point out that he's a unique mold. I'm really liking this toy and can't wait to pick it up when it releases.

Nice, very nice. Now I have to put him into my to-buy list. If you don't want him, there is no other choice, right? Now question is, will or should Hasbro/Takara re-make Springer again? The one in two pack with Ratbat is just not good.

Awesome. Thanks Hasbro and Takara!!!

I agree with the Trailbreaker and Hoist repaint suggestion, you can see the windscreen on his back, possibly with a slightly different transformation (or indeed just turning the figure round like Sunsteaker and Sideswipe) that could become the chest of the figure.

Looks great. I think they got the design spot on. The wheels could do with being folded out of the way but I really like Kup.

Alt mode aside, this could easily fit in with the WFC look.

Um, guys... don't forget about these.

Excellent find sir! I already knew Jazz was going to be awesome but I always wanted to see more of Perceptor. They all look really good and I'm loving the speakers on Jazz. Thanks for posting these pics!

And I can definitely see Cartoon Reflector in Perceptor's chest piece. Too bad I won't be in the states when they come out! :sad:

by **EyeOfTheTigatron** » Wed Oct 13, 2010 9:02 am

YES!YES!YES!awesome :APPLAUSE:

just what Kup should look like
His um,accesory looks Like a cane?
(United Lugnut Doesnt look bad either)

News Credits: 19 · by **Carnivius_Prime** » Wed Oct 13, 2010 9:07 am

Looks alright. I like the car form a lot more than the robot.

edit: I mean Kup. Didn't see those others. Not keen on any of them other than maybe Wreck Gar cos I always had a fondness for him but hated the original toy. Probably get one of those. Or maybe two.

Jazz? No, no way I can forget about him. He is on top of my list. I love to have a new Perceptor, although the wheels on back of his legs might limit his knee movement.... Agree with Jimmy Drift, I hope Blurr wasn't that IDWish.

by **SJ21** » Wed Oct 13, 2010 9:15 am

Awesome. He looks awesome. I can't wait to see this guy in stores.

"I always knew you had potential lad"

now lets hope they got rid of that nasty burr in his rotator.

"Anyway all things considered you did an amazing job lad." "Amazing."

Okay, I'm insanely pleased with Kup and Lugnut. I don't think I can pass up on either of them. :APPLAUSE:

by **Vicalliose** » Wed Oct 13, 2010 9:41 am

These guys just keep getting better with each new figure!

Good that he isn't actually a car, like we were told from... Somewhere, can't remember now. :???:

Oh, wow. Jazz looks a lot better than I had originally thought. Really excited about him. Wreck-gar looks ok. I'll pick him up to go along with FP's junkion. And my dear Perecptor. He looks pretty good. A bit bulky and he's def getting Blurrz's sniper rifle. I wonder if he will come with an eye-patch add on?
