Yep, he will be part of a Target exclusive two-pack along with a Deluxe Topspin repaint.

I'm pulling the trigger on purchasing leadfoot as soon as he appears either on Target's website or at the store. Roadbuster is looking pretty riduclous next to Leadfoot and Topspin. If they do a re-paint or re-issue of Roadbuster that is more like the HA Roadbuster, I'll get that too.

Dude I think that's sad that it comes down to that. I mean if it's cause of your love for NASCAR then go for it. If it's for the love of how the alt mode looks that's great too. But if its cause the alt mode looks waaaay better than robot mode it makes me think how HASBRO keeps f**king up :BANG_HEAD:

!

Deluxe Leadfoot

Cyberverse Powerglide

Deluxe Laserbeak

Hasbro WTF man!!! :VEHI:

So where's his mechtech weapon?

I am assuming the black guns are just pegged into mechtech ports on his roof.

I didn't notice before, but he has a picture of his own face on his chest. That's brilliant! Makes me wants this even more! XD >:oP

It reminds me of a character from South Park who had his own face on his shirt.

I like it....as long as the final product head isn't green, but if so.... Some custom painting in store!

His alt mode is WIN though.

Agreed. If the head is green, there will definitely be a repaint. I'm thinking Gunmetal would work nicely.

I hate when they do that. I have to buy a 2-pack to get a toy I do want, but end up with one I don't want.

by **Cyberion** » Mon Jul 25, 2011 2:37 pm

My thought exactly. Are there any pics of the second one in the two pack?

From what I understand is there will be a deluxe leadfoot sold as a single, just without the Target Logo. So....this is only if you want the Target logo. But I could be wrong. I just don't see this 2 pack as being the only option to get Leadfoot.

I sure hope not. This kind of trickery to sell two figures to someone who only wants the one, is just BS, in my opinion.

It'd still cost less than buying the figures separately. Besides, how else are they gonna sell those repaints? I know I'll be buying one (one two pack that is).

I had to do it in the past with ROTF, not surprised it continues again in DOTM.

The mold looks good enough I might just hold out for a repaint of leadfoot.

I won't mind having to buy Leadfoot along with a repaint of Topspin. I intend to give Twin Twists's guns to other figures.

Sorry to bump such and old thread but... 2011 has gone by, and there's still no sign of the 2-pack.

Also, this 2 pack was not mentioned (I think?) for the 2012 "Movie Trillogy" line in NYCC. :-(

Would we ever see a release of this figure by Hasbro?

My guess is, like Wheeljack/Que and Soundwave, the US release has been pushed back.

Yeah, but we have not even seen a hint of the Twintwist repaint. :-(
