While robot mode isn't the greatest, jet ode is ace.

Maybe they're part of Shockwave's secret army?

They're drones. Nothing more than expendable drones. Which is why you waste so many of them in the Game.

I know they are. I was just making a wise crack about the most famous one-eyed bot in the TF universe.

i'll buy it, but I'll keep it in the package

I believe we just found the suckiest movie bot!

I'm guessing we'll be seeing at least one purple repaint in the near future...

Looks like Armada Thrust

I have to agree man it looks sucky. Plus the out of scale of the movie figures is annoying the hell out of me.

So... the ENTIRE nose cone and canopy is his head.

Right.

Pass. BIG time.

I foresee shelfwarmer territory here.

Too bad, I like Dropkick, Strongarm and Swindle. Most of the movie Game figures are alright.

Probably one of the weakest in the movie line, but still beats the crap out of Cybertron Thundercracker. If his poseability is decent, I'll pick him up... The flamethrower hands actually work on a drone, since he's cannon fodder that won't be doing much outside combat.

Agreed. Plus, with Shockwave in the game, I'm sure we'll see him in plastic form, even if it is just a repaint.

sure

but its like they took an idea that wanted to be great and fixed it.

Like Smokejumper & E-Starscream

one's the okay, but obviously flawed version; while the other is the vastly improved.

Altmode and transformation schemes are different, plus, I think articulation is a bit greater. The wings especially. They look like they hinge like a classics Starscream.

Also Thrust had a head. Resembling a squid it may have been but i thought it was a cool design. Dont quite understand why they can come up with a new body scult for all the drones but not an origonal head for each

Well I think the key word here is drone. Their like storm troopers ya know, and when you look at a Storm trooper they pretty much all look the same when their in full armor, So thats why both Swindle and DreadWing have the 'Decepticon' Camera lense head.

Hey I wonder, They gonna make any Autobot Drone figures?

Maybe I just have an absurdly dirty mind, but this bot mode comes off as a big jumbled mess of phalic imagery to me. Dickwing, he shall be called.
