I thought Sunspot was an autobot. This stinks for those that didn't get Skystalker, Sunspot really clashes with Mindwipe. It doesn't look very stealthy.

Sunspot - That mold simply doesn't work for me in white.

Firetrap - If we didn't have a Brawn in the ROTF line already, this would be the guy! Quite like that colour scheme.

Firetrap is a little too top-heavy for me (and resembles movieverse Brawn a little too much), but Sunspot looks pretty boss. I've been itching for a 'Con bearing a similar Sunstorm-esque color scheme for a while now, and it seems to fit well with the bright color palette being used throughout the HTFD line. This confirms it - HTFD is giving me a serious erection.

Wow...lots of pasess for me in these waves. I think the only ones I'm getting are Highbrow and ELita 1 and the two new PCC 5 packs. Saving a lot of money...

So I'm not the only one getting a Brawn vibe from Firetrap. Well, darn now I have to choose between deluxe Brawn and Firetrap for my G1 section...

Repaints, pass.

firetrap equals brawn

Well, you could always just pretend Firetrap is his similar-looking minicon partner. Being Scout class, Firetrap would be a pretty buff minicon, but hey, would you expect less from someone paired with Brawn?

And I'm digging the football helmet. He's ready to go bounding toward the 'Cons head first, knocking them over like bowling pins.

Firetrap = Brawn.

Movieverse Brawn = new character, I shall call him Thighmaster.

For some odd reason, Sunspot's screaming "Sunstorm homage" to me...........

Hmm, now that you mention it, he does make one hell of a G1 Brawn, with his intensely green alt-mode. I dunno, I may remove him from my "Do Not Get" list.....

Love 'em. I'll be scooping those up like a scooping machine scoops up stuff!

After that, analogy lessons!

Sunspot is a pass, even though I love the mold.

I missed the original figure that firetrap is, so I will be getting him.

At least I'm exited about Sunspot. Since Skystalker is impossible to find...

I like the mold Firetrap uses. I may pick it up a second time.

Movieverse Brawn = Rhinox, maybe? Just without the beast mode.

Sunspot w/o corresponding Mindwipe repaint = why??

I'll pick up firetrap because I didn't pick up Scattershot

Thank you, amcgrath929. I thought that was Scattershot re-painted, but I wasn't sure.

I wish I had seen Skystalker on the shelves. Sunstorm...err...Sunspot is pretty ugly to have with Mindwipe. Overpay for Skystalker or hurt my eyes....hrm...

Hmm, I really like Sunspot in those colors...then again, I'm a magpie, paint something up nice and bright and I'm there.

Firetrap is Brawn? I thought he was Roadbuster for sure, especially with the guns. Oh well, he's Firetrap to me.

It's that domed headpiece that is swaying people to Brawn, and he's not quite orange enough to be Roadbuster. I do see where you're coming from tho'.

I thought Scout Windcharger was HFTD too or am I wrong?

Nope, Generations. Starting Spring 2011 Generations will expand its range from Legends with Optimus Prime, Megatron, Starscream, Goldbug and possibly Prowl, to Voyager with Grapple.
