Dead End was probably expecting his namesake to look this bad.

I'm actually MORE interested in this figure now that I see how small he is. Looks like it's got pretty good detail and articulation for its size.

He reminds me of Cybertron Ransack.

Hmm. Now I have the urge to go play with him again. *runs to get him*

hmmm...you know what my first thought was for this figure after these pics? It's RANSACK! The colors, style, remind me a LOT of that TF:Cybertron whiner...

COOL, I DEFINATLLY WANT HIM. BUT WHY SO SMALL ??? SHOULDNT ALL DELUXE MOVIE CARS BE THE SAME SIZE SCALE ??? ALSO WOULD HAVE LIKED HIM BETTER WITH NO LOGO ON HIS CHEST LIKE MOST OF THE CHARACTERS FROM THE FIRST MOVIE. TOO CARTOONISH...SAVE THAT FOR OTHER LINES...OTHER THAN THAT IM IMPRESSED OVERALL :)

First of all, TURN OFF YOUR CAPS LOCK PLEASE. There's no reason to shout at us.

Second of all, it's not a Deluxe, it's a Scout, just as the topic and article itself state. That's why it's smaller than a Deluxe: because Scouts are smaller than Deluxes.

I was thinking the same thing. But i still say its a gobot. Im glad they finally decided to bring back the scout class. Even if all of them are probably going to be ugly as hell or gobots. But i will be getting this one and putting it on my gobot shelf.

I am generally a fan of the movie figs, and am glad they are going to have a scout class. I like this one! I wonder if there will be a repaint/re-tool that I would like better though... :D

Very small if he's the same size as activator CJ.

Though with a quick head swap, he'd make a nice Animated Cliffjumper. If you want a Cliffjumper that is NOT a BB clone.

I really like this figure he's awesome! I just wish he was deluxe class. Why does Hasbro always **** up the scale of figs.
