The amount of new sightings in the United States is begining to pick up. The lastest new figure to be found is Transformers Movie Recon Barricade, a repaint of movie Barricade. Starkenator of TFW2005 found the figure at a Wal-Mart in Syrucuse Utah. View the proof here. Also do not forget to report all your Transformers sightings in the Seibertron.com Sightings Section.

It'd be so cool if some company like AUTOart put out a detailed 1:18 die-cast version of Barricade.

I love repaints.
and after seeing that repaint at BotCon, I can safely say that it is one ugly repaint.

Im glad these movie repaints are inferior to their original versions, makes me not want to buy them.
Still it would have been hard to come up with a paint scheme that was better than Barricade's original scheme...

Yeah I've saved a lot of money so far, got all the figures I want, not getting any until new molds of figures comes out. If they don't... well, too bad repaints aren't getting my money, at least not the ones from this movie line (with the exception of the scout repaints)

Ill be getting it just because Barricade is my favorite from the movie. You can never have to many Barricades.

I was afraid of this god-awful ugly thing seeing American shores before I find the REAL Barricade.

I can pass on this. I know it may sound like sacrelig, but I don't like this toy.
The alt mode is awesome, but the bot just sucks.

I think a brown, almost Bonecrusher-ish Highway Patrol car would have worked better. Anything else, really. Probably won't pick this one up if I see it, but never know, I do like the mold.

Agreed. I just can't get over his aweful hands-or lack of them. However, I might get the original mold just because the alt rocks. I can't resist the Saleen body style.

Major Do Not Want. This colour scheme makes it easier to see just how ugly the robot form is.

agreed, most of the repaints i've been seeing are not worthwhile.
evac? how to make a poopy toy even shittier.
cliffjumper will probably be the only repaint from the movie line i'll end up with.
i'll pass on the g1 recolors too.

oh no everybody run its rent-a-cop barricade seriously ijust dont feel that a security guard pain job is going to be a logical choice for an evil alien robot who wants to get into the most confidential of areas

I'm like this repaint, sort of. This figure would somewhat resemble the State Police in my state, Virginia, if the colors were reversed.
