Interesting. These are cool.

I think that you can also see the rumored Barricade repaint, as well. It looks...odd in those colors. This is a cool figure, though.

Or maybe, this is what he scanned first, then he found the Mustang with the much more evil paint job, haha.

Where is this "CrossSell" character? I don't see any names listed, as those guys on the bottom of the packaging are cut off.

News Credits: 1 · by **edcomics** » Sat Jun 16, 2007 1:05 pm

Oh, and... Dropkick is a rather odd-looking robot. I'm not sure I'm too keen on it. I think I'm done shopping for movie toys already.

CrossSell seems to be the White or Tan Barricade repaint. Second one from the Right.

I like Dropkick. The Pickup truck mode looks cool. Some kind of tricked out GMC truck.

From the others, I'm absolutely getting Bumblebee. not sure about Jazz. The one with the red gun looks intriguing. And The first one on the right side, looks...well...he looks round, circular. I have no idea what it could be.

As usual, nice alt, terrible robot. I'll have to pass. But that New Camaro Deluxe will be mine!

by **gogleman374** » Sat Jun 16, 2007 1:33 pm

Well He looks odd. He would Have looked better in red.

He looks intresting, I'll ad him to the collective. The figs on the bottom look to grainy I couldn't make them out, but I think I saw not 1 bit 2 I didn't recognize. And again, I may be very wrong here, but is that Baricade's new paint job?

Nice i like the huge decepticon logo on him.

News Credits: 2 · by **Decepticon Spike** » Sat Jun 16, 2007 1:54 pm

I like Dropkick's color.
Which one is Crosscell?

News Credits: 1 · by **mattyc1007** » Sat Jun 16, 2007 2:05 pm

i bet the new barricade crosssell

by **Sportimus Prime** » Sat Jun 16, 2007 2:09 pm

Am I imagining things, or does there seem to be a lot more Decepticons than Autobots that are coming out. It's too bad that the Barricade repaint doesn't seem to be a Prowl.

I like Dropkick though. He looks beefy.

Edited to add:

Has anyone noticed the giant Decepticon logo paint job on his hood/roof?

by **featofstrength** » Sat Jun 16, 2007 2:10 pm

hes a basic drone figure from the video game right?

by **magnusupreme** » Sat Jun 16, 2007 2:18 pm

I'm impressed

I believe we've already seen that one, Its called towline if I'm correct.

So the back of the packaging is:

2007 Bumble bee
Towline
Jazz
Crossell
and what appears to be a recolour of Swindle.

Edit: My bad, I seem to have confused Towline for Longarm

thats one big decepticon logo takes the hood and the top of the truck

by **Krizack** » Sat Jun 16, 2007 3:26 pm

I just registered for the forums because I think I have some insight into this new name.

When Hasbro places pictures of other product on their packaging (like the row of bots on the bottom of the card) they refer to this form of advertising as a "cross sell."

Also if you translate some of the ACtoys thread you see that they refer to the new bot (Barricade repaint) as being in the "cross-sell" or in that bottom row of deluxes.

Although I could be wrong, I highly doubt that the name of the Barricade repaint is cross sell, croscell or any other variation.

Also: the deluxe pictured next to the Barricade repaint is Payload the Armored truck.
