No different from the previous two movie lines.

Yea, the old movies line skipped over characters entirely. The 3rd arcee bike ended up being released as a repaint.
We only got 4 of the 7 constructicons, one didn't have the greatest bot mode, but 2 had real ones.
So, yea, be no surprise if we just get more repaints and not see more new molds.

Well I was wondering how they would repaint Shockwave. Would like if it is Galvatron, however I would like to see robot mode pics and a new head sculpt before I pick him up.

I might have got behind a Galvatron repaint for this IF it had maybe an orange arm cannon OR a new head. Alas, it has neither. :BANG_HEAD:

Rough digibash at what the bot-mode would look like:

I'm happy with the original, purple one.

Voyagers aren't swapping MechTech weapons like the Deluxes, it seems.

Nice work on the digibash. Easy pass though. A new head like I said would have sold me on this, but the regular shockwave is good enough for me.

So all we get different is reverse coloration? Is it just me or does it seem like the rest of DOTM is straight up repaints?

Seriously, where are the retools and new molds? Like Soundwave, Que, Dino, Wheelie, Brains, and new off screen characters.

DO NOT WANT

I just got my Shockwave yesterday and I love it. If I was going to get it repainted I'd much rather have the blue version shown on the box with the cannon arm on the left. It's possible this is a printing error but it does look really nice.

Lame mould,lame repaint. Nuff' said.

PS : To those who bother flaming/replying/debating with me...Well dont bother. Cause there's a 100% chance I wont be seeing your post and a yet another 100% chance I wont reply. So again...Dont bother. Unless you dont mind looking like a moron ^^V.

If they'd make a Galvatron repaint of ROTF Voyager Megs (which they haven't painted at all yet; hope they will soon), I'd be all over it, but although this doesn't look bad, I won't buy it.

Is Hasbro going to repaint EVERY figure?

PASS. Instead of making all these oddball repaints they should focus on actually getting the stuff that's out now to stores. Stores here only have wave 1.

You know, I'm not bothered you think the toy is lame, I dont even own it my self. It's the 2nd part of your past that is so odd.
I mean...you post on a message board....why?
I can't look like a moron if you never see me do this anyway right?

Eeesh.

Thu Jul 14, 2011 7:57 pm

This looks absolute pants and I hope it doesn't sell.

Thu Jul 14, 2011 8:15 pm

I have to see robot mode to make a decision. If it had a cool Galvatron head I'd definitely buy it, or if it looks better than the original I'll get it. But regardless, we need a leader class Shockwave and Megatron before everything gets repainted.

That's what 3rd parties are for.

WHere's the paint?? it's just grey plastic. Cheap bastards.

Thu Jul 14, 2011 9:41 pm

Terrible. I love this mold but....wow. They ruined it.

Thu Jul 14, 2011 9:45 pm

"Galvatron-ish"...

More 'ish' than Galvatron, I say. They'd need to add more purple, make that canon orange, and ditch the hose. I still like this figure. He was so freaking huge in 3D. I wish they had made him as a leader class instead of ironhide or especially instead of bumblebee. Ah well...

Keep in mind Hasbro is going to milk every last drop out of this voyager class before they unleash a leader. It's coming, I truly believe that, because it will sell and make money. It's almost a certainty. BUT, don't look for it until around the DVD/Blu-Ray release of DOTM. We will continue to see residual DOTM toy lines for atleast the next year maybe two.
