The repaint of Transformers ROTF Breakaway has been on many people's to buy lists, especially after they found out it had a new head mold. Unfortunately, it does not look like the previous problems with Breakaway's head have been solved (limited to no movement).

Thrust joins his seeker comrades Starscream, Thundercracker, Skywarp, and Ramjet as part of the Revenge of the Fallen line.

You can see all the shared images here and a small sample below, showing the new, very generation one looking, head mold off.

I hate to say this, but all the seekers for the movie really suck to me. What's the point of a humanoid face for the ROTF line anyway? That's missing the point.

The seekers in general really do nothing for me.

I rarely regret purchasing Transformers, but Breakaway was of the exception. While the jet mode was good, the robot mode is terrible. It'd be nice to see a universe seeker head remold for Thrust instead.

Damn now im gonna have to mod another ROTF figure. This will be the 3rd time for this mold since i modded both my friends Breakaway and mine. Hasbro needs to start focusing more on fixing defective figures. If your gonna remold it might as well fix it too.

That has to be the worst transformers face I've evr scene. I would pay money if they did all these seekers in the ROTF Starscream mold. That would be much better!!!! The G1 figures that have all the correct seekers in the correct styles and that's the only line!!! :-(

Meh. I'll stick with Breakaway.

The mods to Breakaway to get him looking straight weren't that difficult...as per Jin, I re-painted my Breakaway as well and he looks 100% better. I think this guy will make a nice addition to the team.

Did anybody seriously think they WOULD fix that? Have they ever fixed any problems on rerelease? They did bugger all about Superion.

I was excited about this guy when I first heard about him, but now that I see the pics I'm not sure it works. The Breakaway mold has a kind of mopey frumpiness to it that works for an autobot, but it doesn't look right as a decepticon. It just looks like an autobot with a messed up head. Plus, the crappy head mold doesn't do it any favors.
