Is that Freddie Mercury? Nice.
Hello Grimlock! COME TO PAPA, YOU LIL DINO YOU! I waaaaaant. This is perhaps the best reveal of SDCC so far. The only question is, do I put him on the classics shelf or WFC/FoC shelf? He looks way cool but I need one Grimlock per shelf and I have a feeling the classics one will look funny with FoC toys. Although, next to the FoC deluxes, the classics version will look huge.
Blaster: At first I was a bit peeved he's just a remold, but it's a pretty good remold. I appreciate that they made an effort to have his gun look like it should, and the chest piece is rather cool. I'm still torn on getting Soundwave because I have the WFC deluxe, but I'll definitely pick up Blaster. 3 versions of this mold already though? That's a bit excessive...
Starscream: Buy.
Ultra Magnus: Too blue, but buy.
Insectiwhatever: Unsure, maybe buy.
Sideswipe: Real cool bro. Better than Jazz. Might try to get another on clearance and do some part-swapping to jazz-up Jazz a little. He could use a black hip piece.
Fireflight/whateverthey'recallinghimnow: Probably buy but I'll wait for a sale because it's a repaint.
Crap. It's going to be an expensive year. Assuming we actually see any of these figures here, that is. Still haven't seen PRiD Wave 2...
But dang, SDCC is making me so happy. There's a lot to look forward to.
