A second Scattershot repaint. Huh. Well, at least it's not that Armada brick some people thought.

by **JesWal** » Mon Oct 20, 2008 3:02 pm

I WILL have Smokescreen, Dinobot, and Leo Prime. Those toys are HOT! :grin:

Why is Dinobot gray and yellow rather than brown and tan as he should be? Urgh, maybe I need to get the Henkei version instead.

Why cant they just release the Lio Convoy figure :-(

by **Massdestruction** » Mon Oct 20, 2008 3:12 pm

That Wreck-Gar toy is just GARBAGE! Just kidding. You knew someone would say it. He looks real good.

Lugnuts...meh.

Dinobot & Smokescreen... must have. And I am not a fan of beast-bots, so for me to want one is really something.

Leo Prime... Not digging the colors. I would have prefered they take the color scheme from the legends figure. Bright red and blue just aren't good lion colors. I know they are traditional Prime colors, but It came off looking to much like Spiderman. The new head is a plus though.

Overload... Scattershot/Dropshot repaint. Don't have much to ay about him.

Oh my goodness.

Waspinator looks gorgeous, Prowl looks freaking sick... Wreck-gar is very nice... Smokescreen is a surprise, and Dinobot looks better than it did back in TFC Magazine.

Wreck-Gar is so frickin' awesome I'm so glad I have enough moolah for him when he comes out! MAXIMUM AWESOMENESS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Cancelling my Leo Prime preorder, I was hoping for a Lio Convoy-style repaint. Oh well.

News Credits: 1 · by **Agent 007** » Mon Oct 20, 2008 3:28 pm

Dinobot is cool but he;s way too dark. I like leo Prime's remolded head and Smokescreen looks good too. Idk bout the animated stuff Wrek-gar is so so.

Indeed, Leo Prime actually looks quite good but the Lio Convoy mold outclasses it.

by **Kryptikore** » Mon Oct 20, 2008 3:41 pm

Oh man Oh man! Damn this plastic crack addiction of mine! These figures are very nice! I think I'm going to have to finally breakdown and buy Beasty figs. I tell you if that Leo prime didn't have that new head I would never buy with those colors. Dinobot is just bad ass with that color scheme. Not a big fan of TFA but Wasp & Prowl are to hard to pass up. At least Overload's paint apps are better than Dropshot's IMO.

awwwww man i am going to be sooo broke next year. but my money will be for a good cause. i love wreakgar and leo prime. i am surprised that there is new head mold for leo prime and i am impressed with smokescreen and dinobot, is dinobot a maximal or autobot it is kinda hard to see. :-?

. atomic lugnut and over load i will not get. but every thing else.... hot damn! i gotta get em!!!

Smokescreen=Win

News Credits: 972 · by **i_amtrunks** » Mon Oct 20, 2008 3:56 pm

Wreck Gar is everything that is right about animated. Such a simple and plain alt mode that turns into such a nice vivid and interesting robot mode.

And the Lugnut redeco is very clever its so very different to the original, yet still looks good and menacing.

Wreck-Gar is AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Weird-Al-former for the win!

Also, Dinobot doesn't look as bad as he did before, just wish they had got the colours more... y'know, accurate.

I'm liking these things, especially Leo Prime!

by **Anonymous Iggy** » Mon Oct 20, 2008 4:30 pm

To Smokescreen I say "Meh," but only because I already have Prowl. I wish him all the best, though.

Dinobot looks a lot better than he did before; I see what they're doing there, with the legs. He's actually pretty impressive, when you get right down to it. However, I have to jump the Too Dark bandwagon.

And Wreck-Gar really makes me wish I had enough interest in TFA to shell out $30 for him. Hell, he's even a Weird Al character; I'm so very, very drawn. Again, I wish him all the best.

MUST GET WRECK-GAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Atomic Lugnut is ugly, but he does look like a homage to Euro-G1 Predator Skyquake.

Dinobot is a sad-looking figure. I sure hope the Henkei one is much better looking.

Smokescreen is meh, because he was obvious.

Kudos to the new head on Leo Prime, but his color scheme makes him look like Primal Prime. That's a strange mix.

And I was so sure that Overload would be a redeco of his Armada toy. Oh well, I don't want him anyway.

I MUST HAVE UNIVERSE SMOKESCREEN AND DINOBOT...NO MATTER THE COST. If anyone tries to get in my way, I will stab them in the jaw with a rusty spork! Yeah, I said spork. :twisted:

Leo Prime looks pretty cool, I'm not familiar with Beast Wars II or Beast Wars Neo, but I think he looks decent for a repaint.

Wreck-Gar is another must have for me, and if anyone tries to get in my way, well, to save time just refer back to what I said about Universe Smokescreen and Dinobot... :twisted:

Atomic Lugnut is a big bucket of meh. I would have preferred a Leader class Lugnut over this mediocre repaint.

Will most likely pass on Overload, I already have Universe Dropshot and I really don't feel like adding another repaint of Cybertron/Galaxy Force Scattorshot to my collection.

News Credits: 665 · by **Skowl** » Mon Oct 20, 2008 5:27 pm

Holy crap, Wreck-Gar is already sold out in pre-orders!

That was fast.

News Credits: 335 · by **Down_Shift** » Mon Oct 20, 2008 5:29 pm

I'll hit up Wreck-gar and Blastscrean. Even those Leo is a remold, I don't care for the mold.

really let down by "Overload"

News Credits: 32 · by **UltraPrimal** » Mon Oct 20, 2008 5:47 pm

Wreck-Gar: Looks great. I just don't like that peach color on him. I hope he comes with his axle weapon.

Atomic Lugnut: Looks exactly as I thought he would, and I don't like it.

Dinobot: Better. He's growing on me.

Smokescreen: Hey, it's Smokescreen. What do you expect?

Leo Prime: It's great they went to the trouble of remolding the head, but why the hell didn't they paint him like Lio Convoy?!

Overload: I don't like the yellow. Other than that, he looks pretty cool.

by **ephbot** » Mon Oct 20, 2008 5:49 pm

How long do you guys think until we see a show-accurate repaint of Dinobot? Although that's not to say DarkDinobot won't be at the top of my post-Christmas list...
