Ok, so over the past fer months, we all got to know the Drone Units from TFTG.

Decepticons:

Payload
Swindle
Dropkick
Dreadwing

Autobots:

Longarm

Do you see what is wrong with this pic?

So my complaint/question is: WTF? 1 Drone against 4? And why did they pick ALL Decepticons? Why not 2 as Autobots and 2 for Decepticons? Is there a rason for why they chose them to be all Decepticons? Are there any Autonot Drones coming out in the future?

Because the Decepticons love using Drones. For the Autobots, however...they dislike it.

Autobots have personality man, they don't dig drones! Decepticons however don't give a crap, they just want to win.

Isn't there going to be an autobot version of Swindle? Repainted gray and black.

And I thought I heard Dreadwing was used by both sides, and there would be an autobot repaint of him as well. :???:

We also have Camshaft coming for the Autobots, besides, these guys are not "drones" in the toy line and comics, they are individuals. They are just drones in the game. Besides, when it comes to Target exclusive scouts we got what? 8 Autobots and 1 Decepticon (Hardtop!) It evens out.

...but they aren't drones...

I think they're only drones in the game. They got individual personalities in the toyline bios.

Neither are the toys, they are individuals who look like the drones.

If the movie showed us anything, it is that the Decepticons need all the help they can get. It was 8 vs. 5, and they still managed to get thrashed 7 to 1.

Give them more Drone/Drone look-a-like support, they need it.

6-1, not 7-1...Starscream (definitely) and Barricade (presumably, since he never died) got away.

Decepticons:
Payload
Swindle
Dropkick
Dreadwing

Autobots:
Longarm

The odds look right to me ;)^

Longarm is just a badass and it takes 4 Decepticons to bring him down.

Especially with that honkin' HYUGE gun of his that can be used as a gun emplacement once you remove the screw bolting it to his hand.

Didn't Scorponok escape as well by tunneling under the sand? They only recovered his tail...
