In Breacher's biography, Autobots Sea Spray and Breacher were friends and partners. In toy form, Breacher fit into Sea Spray's back. When Sea Spray's repaint Deep Dive was revealed, some were wondering if Breacher was going to get a repaint too. That's been answered today, as images from HK-TF member 我是麦佬 shows a green and white repaint of the APC, named Bodyblock. Question now is, will Deep Dive and Bodyblock be of the same allegiance, or like repaints Strafe and Sunspot? Check out Bodyblock below!

Y'know, Bodyblock's color usage gives me a very strong Tap-Out vibe, and that name isn't all that far off, either. Wonder if it's meant to be a subtle homage...

My monitor is going seriously downhill (all blurry, off-color etc.) so I can't accurately tell the shade of green on Bodyblock, but from what I can tell it doesn't look like his color and Deep Dive's colors are going to quite match up. Breacher and Sea Spray are really, really close as far as the blue tones matching. Until I can see this with a different monitor I'm going to maintain that Dune Runner will still be a better match for Deep Dive. I'll still be picking this one up. Nothing short of a hot pink paint job would make me pass up this mold.

I love this mold. If he's a decepticon, I'll take him. Maybe two..

Aww... Hasbro! Why'd you have to go and re-release the Breacher mold in cooler a color scheme? He even looks more aquatic than Breacher.

*sigh* Well, it's not too bad. He's a scout after all and we'll always have more room for scouts.

Oh and let's not forget downshift. Why didn't they just give him flames in the first place anyway?! Everyone knows why they bough that figure!

I must be crazy, as I am not impressed with the repaints.

Breacher looks way better in dark blue and white, and the yellow on Downshift makes me want to hurl. Black and Orange would have been so much better for him.

Meh, pass them both. One Breacher mold is good enough. And same does Hubcap.

For whatever reason I'm getting an X-Brawn vibe from this guy's colour-scheme.

Both these figures will be bought.

Repaints of cool molds are fine with me!

Regarding his allegiance, Hasbro has made a habit of balancing out Autobots and Decepticons in each wave. Let's see what Scouts we have so far:

:BOT: Windcharger
:CON: Chopsaw
:CON: Demolition Rumble
:BOT: Downshift (ever seen a Decepticon named Downshift?)
??? Bodyblock

Crap...

Bodyblock, in theory, is a partner of Deep Dive. Just like Breacher to Sea Spray. So you know what side Deep Dive is on. Well, just a guess.

That ZZ Top fig PWNS! Looks like it's probably just photoshopped, at least bot mode, but doesn't matter. Still rules.
