Hardshell looks pretty cool, if very Barrage-esque. Kinda want to see the other obscure Insecticons get Cyberverse updates now, if not a full swarm of insect-bots we don't normally see (i.e. a mantis, antlion, cockroach, fly, etc). *sigh* A pipe dream...

Some of those alt modes have been on my "where's a Beast Wars revival" list for years. Add in a Zebra, a brown horse, a butterfly, a whale, a dolphin, and a slew of other common animals and I'd be a very happy camper ... especially if they did a proper school bus and/or a coach bus as well as some additional construction and farm equipment. I still think there are licensing deals that have been long overlooked with the Transformers brand with zoos and other avenues other than traditional retail. Imagine an officially licensed John Deere Transformer that turns into a tractor!

Just got Trailcutter and Deluxe Smokescreen yesterday. Both figures are sweet, but loose joints run rampant on both. Trailcutter can't even hold up his weapon. This seems to be the trend on the Prime toys in all size classes. Time to buy an economy size jug of Future Floors!

Thankfully it's as easy as that to fix, thank you ball joints!

Does this work well on those pesky pin and hip joints as well? BH Voyager Prime's legs are pretty floppy and it's no quick fix as they not only screwed the waist together but reinforced it with super glue. :-x

No word on either way of the subject.

Well, I don't know if I'd call that Bombshell with that everything of his, but they are what they are.

Yup, TF: Prime Hardshell is the TF: Prime counterpart of G1 Bombshell.
