If you don't like Generation Two, then please don't Breakdown! In all actuality, we are getting G2 Breakdown this year's Botcon, from the Universe Sideswipe/Sunstreaker mold. The Botcon website has been updated with the first Decepticon of this year's convention, and it is this teal and pink racer.
: In 1994 -- Generation 2 was in its Prime and the first BotCon was held. Now, sixteen years later the BotCon
exclusive that started them all will be back again in a whole new way! Generation 2 Breakdown, based on the tooling from the
Universe line and featuring an all-new head sculpt! This great figure will be part of this years five figure "Generation 2: Redux"
convention set.
Keep it at Seibertron.com for the fastest Transformers news on the net!

AWESOME I LOVE IT SO MUCH!!!!
Much, much better than Pyro, this guy looks GREAT. It's like he jumped right out of the 90's! Guess I know what my first Botcon figure's going to be...
That head sculpt is gorgeous.

Hot damn is that FUGLY!
And I mean it, people keep saying Thunderclash (damn do I like him though) has the ugliest colours from G1.5/2, but wow this thing just takes the biscuit, dips it in gasoline and sets the f**ker on fire.
The alt-mode looks kinda good, but hell does that bot-mode cry for a mercy killing.

That is incredible
I know people are complaining about the colors but if they're going to do a Generation 2 theme then go all the way. I really hope they do a Gen 2 Ramjet.
I really want that Breakdown. Total win.

Compared to the original, I'd say this is pretty cool!

I like the mold, new head, and the fact that he is a Decepticon.
Only 2 issues...
1. Why is his engine piece pink ???
2. Stop putting their names on the toys !!!

Personally I would prefer that to be made from Cybertron defence RedAlert, but Onslaught would be good enough. I'd have someone to keep my BotCon Thunderclash company.

Stop putting their names on the toys !!!In G2 a lot of them had their names on the alt mode. It was so silly.
Oh man. I'm just starting to think about some of the gaudy nightmare versions of existing characters G2 gave us that the classics molds can be painted as. Silverbolt, Onslaught, Grimlock, Bumblebee.

Had a feeling Breakdown would make an appearance. Looks awesome. Just wish I had the other 2 versions of Breakdown for comparison pics. One day ...

I didn't care for the Pyro/Spark figure but this for some reason just looks awesome to me... I actually want this figure... If the rest of the figures impress me, then I guess I'll be dropping some $$$ on this set....

Be nice to see it in G1 colours at some stage.
Wonder if Dragstrip will be available.
A G2 Ramjet renamed as Slipstream would be fantastic. It would increase the Seeker count and homage the similarly coloured Animated female.

I think I'm going to be saving some money on this set.
G2 is the reason I got OUT of TF collecting way back when.

The pink should be purple.
G2 they put their names on some of the toys, it would not be an accurate G2 homage if they did not.

As much as I would like a Slipstream, I would really rather a brand new mold than a repaint. It would be the original Blackarachnia toy all over again. (yuck)
I'm wondering, if they're doing Pyro are they going to do Clench? Wasn't he the Decepticon equivalent?

If they do Clench, I suspect he would be done from Universe Onslaught.

I gotta agree. "Breakdown" on the side of the car is kinda lame. The colors don't bother me a bit though.
