Thanks for the idea! :APPLAUSE:

The rifle is now detachable and fits perfectly into the hole in his left hand without falling out. Much better.

As far as Hoist goes, I'll be picking him up, along with the Gears repaint of Stockade. The more G1 that can be applied to the movieverse, the better IMO.

Wonder if this will be a store exclusive or general release?

They're teasing us. It's standard practice these days sadly

Or they stole the figure from the factory and don't know how to transform it

Okay.. okay.. I'm joking.

*Looks up Longarm*

Hmm, pretty skinny bot mode, not nearly bulky enough to be a proper Hoist. However, maybe Hoist joined Energon Watchers like Mirage did?

Irregardless, I'm getting this figure

Well, these are Movie Figures. The instruction at times are more convoluted than War and Peace

If that is an actual figure that is released to the public, I have to get it. Oh wait. I spent all my damned money on the Universe line....damn it!

I want this so bad I can taste it!

Now, can I have one in black with a remolded head and 70's stripes on the side please, pretty please.

I'm completely sold on this one :grin:

.
Like that guy before me said Hoist finally goes to Hollywood.
Too bad for Powerglide, Sunstreaker, Tracks and Warpath :lol:

.
The only thing that can ruin it for me is that he ends up being an exclusive, you have no idea how many exclusives arrive to Mexico, I'm still waiting for Animated Ultra Magnus to show up despite he not being an exclusive.
