So it can go on a Classics shelf as Block Town Carzap rather than as G2 Windbreaker.ScottyP wrote:megatronus wrote:It's one thing to homage an official release, it's quite another to homage a non-release or cancelled product.
That's a good way to put it. I feel the same way about Nacelle. Use the encore G1 seeker mold and make it look like that catalog image, and that's a freakin' huge win. As it is, it feels like a weird addition to a Classics shelf when there was never any original version of it to begin with.
Alternatively, with the Club's products being so fiction-oriented, this is technically meant to be a Wings Universe toy rather than a Classics toy, as the Classicsverse and the Wingsverse are separate places, but I think the first point I made might be more compelling/appealing than this one.

Real quick aside, I adore everything about the senator Rattobatto figure, I think it is the single best use of the neo-classics scourge mold. One of my favorite takara figures this side of Telemocha Waspy.
Maybe as Shattered Glass Deathcobra, but certainly not the one from Victory, since this figure's got way more gold than Deathcobra had, who was primarily green with only a little gold:Hiboman wrote:And he can totally double as the first Deathcobra figure!
