Well I am Australian. It's kinda what we're known for.

Either way CHUG is pretty much an alternate version of G1. Some characters get heavily updated alt modes to keep up with the time. But some hardly change, most notably with the bluestreak, starscream, and cyclonus CHUG molds.

Totally agree with that view on CHUG. But I did want to say that the CHUG dead end we got so far was based on sports car loosely based on a Lamborghini Gallardo, and not a ferrari. (unless the one your talking about is not the one pictured below).

And that one is Wildrider in my book (trademarks, you know?). And he's referring to the CW Dead End btw.

So true... I never liked "CHUG" anyway.

I guess they will just retool the head and the chest plate of sunstreaker just to give him is classic rooftop chest look

Is it just me, or is this a record? Do we normally know the entire lineup by March?

I thought we had realized that back with the last batch of computer listings. I have just taken it all as fact from then. While we know the line up, we still dont have official pics which will wait for SDCC or Botcon. We still have Leader Starscream to reveal as well as the 4 autobots, galvatronus (the torso), Optimus Maximus and all those G1 reissues, this year's Hasbro MPs and G2 Devastator. It sounds like the same amount of stuff that they revealed at those shows last year. And then we'll have whats coming out next year (computron and hopefully Bruticus). I think its about the same in terms of official reveals.

True, but I like my grains of salt, keeping changes, possible errors and even red herrings in mind

Whereas this figure, while likely being a much better figure than Universe in almost every regard, is but a non-Ironhide body with Ironhide's head slapped onto it.Samsonator wrote:Still a better Ironhide than Universe.
It's definitely gonna be a better toy that Universe Ironhide, but aside from the head, it's just not as Ironhide-y as Universe Ironhide.
