I would be surprised (and sorely disappointed) if Windblade isn't retooled/redecoed into Slipstream down the line.

Only if they get rid of the ugly head, ugly wings, and fix the terrible alt mode.

Unlikely, I know, since the mold itself looks too masculine to pull off a decent Minerva.
As far as I'm concerned, Cybertron Override = Classics/neo-G1 Minerva.
Personally, I use the white repaint of Cybertron Thunderblast (the boat-chick). I will continue to do so until a proper one rolls in.

Yeah, they would have to do most of that to make a credible Slipstream retool. The altmode would stick, though. Not sure what you find so offensive about it.

I'm questioning what exactly is right about it, as it's a bunch of jet parts stuck to a pair of non-disguised legs that have a massive gap in the middle.

Yeah, those are some large gaps.
So does Skyfire have chromed weapons and boosters?
It might not be transformed all correctly. Sky-Byte is obviously mistransformed, so there is precedence.Shadowstream wrote:I'm questioning what exactly is right about it, as it's a bunch of jet parts stuck to a pair of non-disguised legs that have a massive gap in the middle.

According to Mark Weber, the reason the Age of Extinction pteranodon is Strafe and not Swoop is because the two-headed design was deemed to be too much of a departure from traditional depictions of Swoop.

It probably isn't a question of it being "better" but a matter of them wanting to do something "different".durroth wrote:which begs the question: Who decided a two headed pteranodon was any better than a one headed pteranodon and why. they could get the same look in bot mode by just having the single head split in half like all the others...

Being fair, the googly eyed look is more in line with the Potato Head figures eyes. (And this is their line, afterall) Although agreed, they look odd on Grimmy. "Almost" looks like its a remold or stuck on to the head the way some of the contour lines fit though, but I bet its ust my monitor.welcometothedarksyde wrote:Alright, there have been 3 variants of the Potato Head Grimlock shown. The first had G1 Grimlock blue eyes, the second had derp eyes, and the third has derp eyes that have a mad expression. I'd greatly prefer the first version, but this new stock photography is cluing me in that this 3rd version is gonna go to productionCurse you Hasbro!!! I want a proper Mr. Potato Head Grimlock!
So. Much. Foreshadowing.Sabrblade wrote:Can. Not. Wait! To see the Rescue Dinobots in season 3 of the show!
