New Images have surfaced online of three upcoming movie figures at Tformers.com.

The first is of the soon to be released '08 Bumblebee repaint into Cliffjumper.

The second is of the new Sector Seven Dune Buggy known as Landmine.

Finally, the last figure to appear is another repaint. This time, it is Movie Swindle repainted into Camshaft!

Landmine I'll nab, Cliffie, probably, but Camshaft...hell no! No more repaints!!!

by **timshinn73** » Mon Sep 24, 2007 11:48 am

I like Landmine.

Pass on the rest.

I'll get CJ and Landmine too.

If CamShaft had a new head, maybe.
But as is, nah...

Landmines pretty awesome.

I might get Cliff aswell

Ah, I was thinking Camshaft was gonna be a repaint of that Swerve figure. Still, I like the Swerve mold and I'll probably get Camshaft. Same with CJ and Landmine, though I don't like their faces.

hopefully the Mig mold might be relesd as a autobot.

Landmine's okay. His head looks like a football helmet... and I don't like his feet, but the alt mode is so cool, and I'm sure I can pose him to look better than that. The rest I'll pass.

Definately grabbinf Landmine.

Maybe Cliffjumper since I have a crazy repaint idea for that mold, and having the car already red makes it easier. Wonder if I could remove those silver stripes or if I'll have to paint over them...

I'll probably end up with all of them. I plan on putting a new head on CJ and I like the Jeep thingy, that's cool.

I skipped Swindle the first time around and the gray body on Camshaft will be easier to repaint than the red of swindle for a custom, so that works for me.

Whoah, is that Landmine or Hannibal?

Yeah, Landmine is a nice one. I like Cliffjumper too, just cause really like the Bumblebee mold (which I got at last this past friday YES!!!!)

Camshaft is a maybe.

That packaging rules!

News Credits: 26 · by **Wheeljack35** » Mon Sep 24, 2007 12:25 pm

I like Landmine even though his face is that of a Bionacle

Camshaft literally sucks

He's an Autobot not a Decepticon drone

Why couldn't they have changed the head?

by **DorkimusPrime** » Mon Sep 24, 2007 12:26 pm

Alot of double-standards here..."I'll get Cliffjumper but not Camshaft, since he's a repaint"...wtf do you people think Cliffjumper is?!

News Credits: 767 · by **Dead Metal** » Mon Sep 24, 2007 12:30 pm

LAndmine is a must, not shure on CJ, and the Chamshaft, hell no!

by **Dagon** » Mon Sep 24, 2007 12:32 pm

I like Landmines' catchers' mask.

Yay, more craptastic Movie Line repaints! The Cybertron series had the best repaints ever, and now it's being followed by the line with the worst redecos.

Everytime there is a Bumblebee toy, the G1 fanatics all clamor for a Cliffjumper repaint (because why should cliffjumper ever be anything more than just a red Bumblebee?), even when a repaint would be awful, case in point.

Landmine is cool though.

Where the hell are the original deluxes? I still need a plain old Barricade.

CJ just looks strange to me. His paint app seems so bleak. Camshaft is such a bad mold and that head ruins Landmine for me. Those marble eyes are strange. I'm disappointed with this wave and will probably pass.

by **Mandamus** » Mon Sep 24, 2007 12:56 pm

I had a rule that I wasn't going to get any characters that didn't show up in the movie but I like the look of Landmine. Def pass on the other two.

News Credits: 11 · by **Overcracker** » Mon Sep 24, 2007 12:57 pm

I really like Landmine. And truly like Cliffjumper, the red really works well with the mold.

As for Camshaft, i still dislike the lens heads, and that mold in general, so will pass.

by **Sarcastro66** » Mon Sep 24, 2007 12:58 pm

I'm underwhelmed by them all. The only one that even remotely looks interesting is Landmine, and really, those funky eyes of his and his catcher's mask helmet-like head really don't help it too much.

I think with this set I may be done with the Movie line.

I guess I'll just wait patiently for the Animated line and beyond to start up.

Not too happy with Cliffjumper (if I want a '08 Bumblebee mold I'll buy another yellow one)...plus, at least to me, it screams cheap knockoff. There's not one thing different between the 2 except a layer of paint (I know that's why we call them REPAINTS, but this one just makes me angry looking at it for some reason)
Meh, enough ranting on that one, sorry.

As for Landmine, now THAT is one I like. New mold, original looking...not to mention cool as all hell

Won't even bother venting on that Camshaft

Cheers!

[Why couldn't they have changed the head?]

Because that costs money, something a straight repaint is done to save them money.

I like Landmine's head, it's different. It would be boring if every tf had the same head design.

The other 2, well... Cliffjumper is a maybe just because the mold is so good, but camshaft....hahaha. Heck no.

I really like the new packaging design. The blue glowing electricity is really eye appealing. I also love the head shot of Landmine on the front of the package, it's awesome. I might have to get 2 Landmines, one to open one to keep sealed. I don't do that often.
