junowong28 from HK-TF forum has got his hand on the upcoming Hunt For The Decepticons Insecticon. He has posted a gallery of the toy, and he is also creative enough to transformed the Insecticon into some unofficial modes.

He looks good. A lot better than I thought he would. He'll need a new name though. I just don't like the generic "i'm an insect' kind of names.

Oh look, it's something with a really vague Cybertronian alt-mode. No thanks, ROTF Soundwave was enough for me when it comes to that sort of thing. No real alt-mode, just a bunch of mangled up parts.

The Cybertronian alt-mode is a fan-mode. The bug is the official alt-mode.

^He's a Scout. Meaning the toy is larger than the actual character. We don't get too many of those.

I'm pretty tickled with this guy. For something that didn't have a robot mode in the movie, for them to work a decent looking bot-mode in, works for me. I'll get him. At scout prices, I can't see why I wouldn't.
:BOT:

Real nice, gonna get him. The only thing I'm considering for this guy is whether Hasbro or Takara is nicer. Usually its the Takara one.. will have to see..

I'm really liking this guy, if for no other reason than he's very much different than most of the other figures. (4 arms ftw)

I'm all over this little guy!

Neat bot mode, neat alt mode, a pile of fan modes and lots of posability.

I'll be army building with this little guy. :-)

This guy looks to be something of a spiritual successor to (possibly my all-time favourite mould) Cybertron Scrapmetal; a 'Jack of all trades yet master of none' in the best possible way!

Expect pictures like this http://i20.photobucket.com/albums/b236/ ... modes3.jpg
soon...

I may pick up a few of these figures and repaint them in the classic black and purple to create my own Swarm.

That's pretty cool. I'd buy a few if Hasbro did that for my Classics display.

I'll wait for the repaint as I don't like the current deco but the mold looks cool.

:-? Hmmm...not a bad figure. Don't think it's good enough for a budget pick up. Wouldn't mind seeing it in G1 colors though.

My son loves this guy from Rotf, looks like I'll have to get two. Repainted in gunmetal and gold like these Japanese Giant Hornets.
