SG colours, eh? Hm. Let's see the price and the painted details.

Here's hoping they'll do Steeljaw. Both because I like Steeljaw more, but also because his SG counterpart homages Voltron.

Is this still a garage kit?

Look who got a preorder this morning:

Not a bad price, compared to the MP cassettes.

I may spend the money just for the KO KFC logo. The cassette's just a bonus!

That's a pretty decent price.

Having to paint it is a huge deal breaker. Couldnt they at least use red plastic ?

It's shattered glass. Just wait for the regular version, I'm sure it'll come.

SG ?

I thought the regular version was available as a garage kit only ? I had gotten that guys e-mail (Eagle) and he never responded back to me. Is this BBTS version going to have paint apps like the picture on the box ? Or is it just another customizers project in blue plastic ?

Pre-order is in #-o

Never been interested in shattered glass, but another cassette is hard to resist

Is this resin or ABS plastic?

I don't know much about these guys, so please tell me that's a prototype and the actual figure will come with a few paint apps...

TFS: CST-01SG - Rhinohorn Evil Version

News Credits: 1 · by **Gauntlet101010** » Mon Mar 04, 2013 10:52 pm

Painted pics are up at BBTS. This guy looks sweet! No tape details, though, which is a pity. Hopefully Reprolabels picks up the slack here.

EVIL RHINOHORN PROFILE

Abrasive, obtuse, belligerent; these are all words that Evil Rhinohorn would use to describe lesser beings. He prides himself on his ability to speak as eloquently as possible, he actually does this in an attempt to be as precise as possible, but ironically, it makes his oratorical sonorities too pleonastic to be expeditiously assimilated.
His expanded vocabulary has led to his team-mates mocking him, and referring to him as dictionary bot, he simply smiles, keeps walking and replies “thesaurus bot would be more accurate”. Little do his team-mates know how veracious that statement is, as he often punctiliously studies synonyms in his spare time.
His rhino mode has meant that his function in war can be a little one-dimensional, and he worries extensively over the repeat impacts he puts his CPU through, as he routinely charges head first through enemies or barricades. More recently, he has noticed himself slipping up, and mixing up his big words, and he has vowed to not let these repeated obtrusions dull his perspiration.

Also, a G1 colored version will be coming up soon.

What's up with that cartoony eye? Why isn't the other side of his face decoed? The details on the top are also meant for the bottom of a tape, so if he was paced in Blaster correctly everything will be upside down.

Not impressed.
