Really like the G1 throwback colors and cone head.

With that pale blue colouring and pinkish cockpit, it kinda reminds me of G1 Deftwing, just with the colours toned down. Please, no Deftwing repaint!

Actually, I think Dirge looks more like Marco:

From Pixar's Cars. :grin:

Looks nice...not the universe version that needs to be released retail already but still a must have !!! Now they have to give us a deluxe movie Ramjet to keep the group of 3 in scale. I would have liked to have seen a voyager movie Starscream repaint of Thrust and Dirge to go with the Ramjet from Wal-Mart but Im still happy with this release anyways.

This reminds me of a Go-Bot that was a harier jet too. I think we might see him before we see anyone else since Go-Bot homages were big during the first movie line. This might be my first and only movie figure I buy; unless they make a blue Sideswipe with a new head called Tracks and only then if it's a human alliance version.

Are those MONKEY ARMS I see?!
Please tell me I'm wrong.
What is it with these figures that have the palm of the hand lined up with the inside of the elbow joint (I'm looking at YOU, Cannon Bumblebee!) ? It looks ridiculous, and ruins an otherwise awesome looking figure. Does it really cost that much to at least allow the wrists to rotate?

I have been looking at this figure and thinking the same thing. I do not think there is enough plastic to work with to mod them to rotate, which is a pity, cos then you could have the 'null rays on top of arms' seeker pose.
