Great galleries :) I'd like to note that Universe Overload is actually inspired by Micromaster Flak.

Which is interesting since this mold was remolded into BotCon 2009 exclusive Flak.

That's based on his Marvel's Transformers Universe bio, which states that he was a janitor of the Fuel-Spill Section of the Ministry of Energy and Nutrition on Cybertron. Hazardous Material, you see?

I've just recently started to get back into collecting after a very long absence. I know that a lot of the 07 movie figures were repaints of earlier lines like Energon, Armada, etc. Anyway, I'm really digging Crankcase and wondered what mold he is a repaint of?

Crankcase is a repaint of Cybertron Red Alert, and was also repainted into two other figures, Cybertron Cannonball, a black and white version, and Botcon Timelines Kup, a teal version of the figure.




Hmmm.. I really like Crankcase but it was a Wal-mart exclusive, thus i was never able to go it. Cannonball and Red Alert were both Cybertron figures, and I was in my Transformers hiatus during that time. So it looks like Kup is the closest thing I have to obtaining the mold... WTF?

Why does everyone hate Leo Prime? I love him! Then again, I didn't get Leobreaker, Nemesis Breaker, or Razorclaw, but still! For crying out loud, he's AWESOME!!! :DANCE: And I don't even have Cybertron Optimus (I wish I did :HALUC:, He's calling me)!

One more thing.

Hypnotic voice: :HALUC: You will all love Leo Prime! You will all love Leo Prime! You will all...:HALUC:

I don't hate him. I like his character. He is awesome. Especially in the movie when he became Flash Lio Convoy.

This figure also recently appeared in All Hail Megatron.

Edit: Actually, I was thinking the other Scattorshot repaint, Dropshot. In the words of Op: My bad.

Leo Prime is hideous. The mold itself is just not appealing.

Lio Convoy is awesome. Character wise, and the figure don't look to bad either.
