First Post!

I'm glad the last pic shows them as all one color. Looks better than two in Grey.

I need to ask why you're saying "Click on the thumbnails to see larger images" when there aren't any links to click, just the thumbnails?

I'm looking forward to this set. I'll get'em; I'd just rather have the Seacons.

I don't see what the problem is with this guy. This is what I wanted from these molds in Energon. I'll be very happy to add to my Classics.

You know who I hope comes out in the Classics line? DEVASTATOR. If I wanted this I'd go to some store's clearance aisle and pick 'em up for about a dollar each.

I don't get it. I'm still waiting for the pics of devastator. All I've seen is some shittastic energon mold, that offends baby Jesus.

Ditto. I am actually really excited about this release. Sure I want 5 seperate molds for the figure, but the 3 we got for it wernt actually that bad IMO.

Okay, so who gets what mold is what I want to know....

Honestly? I'd rather the Target Exclusive Build Team repaints have been the Classics Constructicons if they were going to go this route, at least they were four different molds instead of one torso mold and two limb molds repeated twice each....

While I agree a repaint of Energon Constructicon Maximus is a tad lame for Hasbro to put into their Classics series I will be picking him up. I do think they could have at least changed 2 of the constructicons though so you didn't have to have multiples.

I would have prefered a new Stunticon set, than this crap. Menasor realy needs redoing.

new mold = more investment, repaint = much cheaper, some leftover production = even more reason for repaint, lack of new mold = less people buying but still plenty enough purchases to earn money, lesson for Hasbro = might be a good strategy to every now and then save the good or less hideous colors for repaints when sales are difficult to predict, problem for tfans = lack of new molds despite possibly better colors, concern for perfectionists = this is unacceptable, celebration for hardcore collectors = finally the right colors or does it matter?

I like him actually. I know that repaints irk many people, but this one does not offend me too much.

A new mold for the six Constructicons would be awesome. But what we get? the same crap, different colors.

repaint or not he is a good repaint. i'll get him if for no other reason than to have a complete classic set. he does look pretty good though

I like the more uniform colors, but beyond that, I wasn't a fan of this guy the first time around, so I can't see this being any different.

Still, if I find him on clearance, box sets are nice to keep sealed for prosperity.
