Hey all. While browsing the net for TF DOTM Voyager toy mod, I found these images of DOTM Leadfoot. First i thought it must be a custom but then somehow, Its looks REAL! I am suprised and also confused. Is it real or photoshopped. Look for yourself.

It looks authentic, but I'll reserve judgement on that until I see the robot mode pics.

No, unfortunately that is just a heavily customized DOTM Topspin, there are too many sponsor logos for it to be real, as well as many of the guns on it are recognizable, and the mech tech [ports are the same. Sorry, try again.

I'd have to agree here. The gatling guns on top look to be from the scout class "Dune runner/beach comber" type. And looking at the two previous deluxes Roadbuster and Topspin, too many logo's.

It looks convincing and
satisfying freakin' kick ass, but it's most likely another custom.

I think so. It looks a lot like the Deluxe Topspin mold, except for the guns and the hood gimmick.
I also agree that a retail figure would NEVER have that many corporate logos on it.
Also, I doubt that Deluxe Leadfoot would be a repaint of the Topspin mold; it wouldn't look anything like the character.

The hood is made from deluxe DOTM BB's chest and a PCC leadfoot (minicon)

Yes, its Topspin, with quite a few modifications. The tri-barreled Guns, belong to Dunerunner as someone said:
The hood pieces belong to Bumblebee,
Its a very good custom, but a custom nonetheless.

But its a really cool custom. If Hasbro makes this I would glady buy it in a heartbeat.

Leadfoot is suppose to be a Target exclusive release. I'm not sure when it's suppose to be released. I'm looking for him as I just picked up the other two Wreckers last week.
BTW, very nice kitbash. Quite impressed w/ all the modifications and paint apps.

You edited it. You originally had DOTM Leadfoot. So that isn't what you wrote.

As soon as I saw the pics, I thought it was either HA or a custom, it looked too nice for a deluxe.

This is regretfully a custom job. While I give props for the craftsmanship on the toy. There are several faults on the toy. One blatant fault is that Juan Pablo Montoya's Car Number is 42 and not 41. Secondly, J.P. Montoya CURRENTLY drive a Chevrolet Impala and there is a Dodge Logo plastered on the rear quarter panel behind the tire. Thirdly, do I see a Budweiser Logo there on the wing?? Hasbro, would NEVER make a toy that endorses any alcoholic product. Fourthly, it would take a great pair of sharp scissors to cut through the 'May we use your logo' Red Tape. Take a look at Dlx. Roadbuster I see ONLY the Amp Energy Logo The NASCAR Sprint Cup Logo and the National Guard Logo, and that's it. My guess is that Leadfoot will ONLY have the Target, Sprint Cup, and the Tums Logos. Lastly, that supercharger sticking out of the hood looks Lockdown-ish. Sorry to burst your bubble there.

The most obvious give away for me was the drybrushing.
