Very nice.

The more I see of them, the more I don't like promo photos. The lighting is so bright and harsh, it really distorts the actual colour of materials under normal lighting conditions.

Cool. I hope these make their way over to Asda in the UK. I would like to own a Red Powerglide. Not bothered about the other two though.

Notice that Walmart named Hardhead as "Onslaught"

Man, I really want to like Powerglide, but those chesticles and his tiny wast are killing it for me. I was battling with myself as to whether or not I would get him and thought that the G1 colors would sell me, but I think it's the mold that I'm not big on.
Pop a Barbie head on it and voilĂ ! Dolly Parton Crossover TF.
I hate to say it... I really do, but he's a pass.
In other news, I found Ejector at a Wal-Mart in the Dallas area yesterday. He was too quirky to pass on and he turned out to be a pretty cool toy.

Looks like they forgot to flip Hardhead's upper leg around before taking the picture

Good eye there Jenus and looks like they did the same with Skyfall's upper leg too.

Well, Powerglide does look a lot better in red, but the robot mode of that mold is just terrible, IMHO. It's got terrible proportions, and after having the original (which I gave to my sons) I just can't bring myself to buy that mold again. You can paint a turd gold, but that doesn't make it worth anything.

I like the G1 co colors on Powerglide, it's much better than that white deco they had on him originally. I really like Hardhead in this wave especailly his spray-painted crossed out Decepticon logo!

Well either way, glad to see Powerglide's orginal colors back on him, didnt like the white/beige colors thats hasbro had him and wasnt paying for the takara version either. And for Skyfall and Hardhead thats a win either way!

Not unless you call it art. Then, it's priceless!

I think I'm going to buy Hardhead.
Going to pass on the other 2 though, Powerglide doesn't interest me in the slightest. And I like Darkwing alot more than Skyjack.

FYI guys, I found these guys at my local Wal-Mart yesterday as well as the Fearswoop set. If you want em, they seem to be out there to find.

Picked up Powerglide as I didn't have the cash for the other two, but I didn't really like the other two either so I may not get em...
