It might not be an obvious answer at all. It might be a poor choice for Hasbro, but it might make sense it it is a Takara release, or something set for a special event instead of a general release.

BEHOLD: G2 Movie Barricade.

Now watch the fans scramble for it.

For Hasbro's sake I will hope for something along those lines. However, if Hasbro want to sell that in America as-is, then it won't fly. If it makes sense for Takara though, then I see your point.

Paired with the blue-limb Bumblebee!

Hideously bright for no apparent reason, both for Barricade and Bumblebee.

And I'm I the only one to think that with a new head, these colors on the Barricade mold would have strangely worked for Movie Prowl...? :-?

I have to say that after first wanting to spork out my eyes at Barricade's coloration, he's...actually, if you give it a while...kinda...cute? *is bricked to death*

The Starscream 'repaint' (is that even a repaint?) looks to me honestly more like an attempt to sell more of the even fuglier Twin he's packaged with. As much as I am a whore for that jet? Hasbro: no. You will not bamboozle me into buying Skids or Mudflap, and especially not for what's not even really a redeco!

HK, strangely tempted to repaint one of my 'cades to Highway Patrol. Why? Because it couldn't be any tackier! :grin:
