Very happy I preordered this!

[Wolfman Jake]

Any guesses as to what Deadlock's title/function is? All I can make out from that manga cover is that he's a Decepticon Jae...(something).

Huh, looks like they changed the title on that comic cover since it used to say this:

[Wolfman Jake]

I'm guessing some copy writer noticed how Engrish-tastic "Decepticon Slaughter Soldiers" is?

Then again, they were fine with having Megatron say "dude" in the Grand Scourge comic.

I think Megatron might have imbibed too much top shelf energon that day.

My guess is "Jaeger", which is German for "Hunter". Words with "ae" (used as a substiture for ä) are usually German, and it's one of those foreign languages Japan likes to use (alongside French and Dutch).

He does look so very cool. I like him a lot.

Blurr's wearing Drift's doors.

Which is really weird. I don't know why they did it, they just did it

It's the reverse of Deadlock: Drift with Blurr doors vs. Blurr with Drift doors.

We now have new images of the Pack-in comic that comes with e-Hobby Limited edition Deadlock! These images show off the comic that comes with Deadlock, and it tells the story of Deadlock in another dimension who watches as the closest thing he has to a friend, Lockdown, is struck down by Grand Scourge and he vows to follow him and take him down in vengeance. The comic brings together elements of the Grand Scourge comic, the Transformers: Cloud comics as well as some Transformers: Go! Check out the comic mirrored below, and stay tuned to Seibertron.com for all your latest Transformers news and Galleries!

Huh, I was spot on with "Jaeger". Go me.

[Sigma Magnus]

Interesting...not quite sure if I'm reading it correctly, but still interesting.

[Emerje]

Translation isn't quite as good as they usually are in these. Interesting that they chose to stick him in the Adventures universe with Lockdown, killing poor Override. And then to cross into Cloud showing Starscream and Shockwave, followed by IDW universe Starscream and Sky-Byte, and finally Transformers Go! with Go Prime only to face Grand Scourge who's also skipping universes killing Primes. Crazy stuff! Now I'm really glad I picked up Scourge and Deadlock.

Not quite: as Cloud uses FoC and other repurposed designs for the local denisens of Cloud World, they're more likely Cloud Thundercracker and Hellwarp. The coloring make it really hard to tell.

Cloud Starscream is already on the right (using the Doubledealer mold) with Cloud Shockwave (using the Whirl mold). That's definitely the FOC Generation Starscream design which he used during Sky-Byte's comic debut. There's a scene later where they fly off together.

Will he eventually turn into the white kinight/samurai Drift we eventually will know?

Presumably, but it's hard to say which one. Since it's Adventure Lockdown instead of Turmoil he'll probably look like Adventure Drift Origin in the end.

He looks fantastic. Wish he wasn't so pricey.

She corrected herself to say Thundercracker instead of Starscream. That jet is blue and the shark is purple.

Do you remember of E-HOBBY Deadlock, the redeco of Generations Drift. While some of you have already gotten him, fellow Seibertronian reviewer Shockwave514 has made a quick video review for everyone to see what this guy is all about. This may help those who are still on the fence, which is quite understandable for a redeco which may cost you $ 70 USD. Enjoy!

It's time for another short review of Transformers Takara Ehobby Deadlock, This review is less then 14 Minutes and I hope you enjoy the informative and crazy review.
