Well hats off to whoever guessed the Sideways mold.

Not that impressed really, but maybe it'll look better in person.

fine?? meh?? what are you guys on?

That is bloody amazing, I love it!
Very cybertronian, an inspired mold choice and the new headsculpt and colours are great!

I am officially sold on this set, a great relief since I sold shattered glass as soon as I could

Still not worried about not ordering this set.

I like it better than Kup, but not enough to be concerned about it.

Mleh, the head's not really suited to that mold.

by **Technically weird** » Mon Mar 02, 2009 5:23 pm

Awesome. Thank you, that is all.

My TFU Galvatron and Cyclonus will be happy to see their old friend.

I Like the mold, I like the new head, and i even like the colors, but I don't like them all together.

It seems the choices this year leave a lot to be desired.

I was never a big fan of this mold. it was kind of unexpected.
i think this mold was made for Ratbat and not Scourge or Sideways.

I really like this.

They did a good job here.

sideways figure... i was never fan of cybertron sideways anyway enrgon sideways i like i like his head better than the kup

by **Hard Hacker** » Mon Mar 02, 2009 5:33 pm

Well, this is surprisingly good.

Hopefully Scourge won't attract too much attention on e-Bay.

Didn't expect that mold but not bad. kinda grows on you after a while.

like millions of fellow tfs Scourge suffers from Diabetus. Brimleyformers 4 the win!! :APPLAUSE:

Not bad though I'll pass though.

You and me both.

Scourge doesn't look half bad. I really like his hew head.

Looks good, but not amazing. I adore that mold, but something about that head throws it off for me. Not big on this set.

News Credits: 8 · by **Megatron Wolf** » Mon Mar 02, 2009 5:48 pm

That is sick. Wish i could get one id love to have it.

Not a big fan of this mold, but great job with colors and new head. Kup alone already had me going.

News Credits: 11 · by **kirbenvost** » Mon Mar 02, 2009 5:54 pm

Hmm, another unusual mold choice, but it doesn't look bad. The head and colors are spot on. I just don't collect Scourges so I'm not interested enough to spend the cash. I may still try for a Kup, however.

*facepalm*

I can't explain, but Scourge and that mold together is just... wrong. There's still no BC figure this year that I'm excited about, thank the botconners/Hasbro for making it light to skip this set, the Dairycon exclusive pretender is much more interesting.

Great idea for Scourge, Cybertron Sideways is an excellent figure.

Like Kup I think it'll look better in person, both figures look a little 'washed out" colourwise to me.
