Nice find RD! grindor looks ok but now that I look at him I don't think he even has a remolded head! I think my 07 blackout will do just fine and dune runner is nice but I already have landmine so he's a pass as well.

Does anybody else see the similarities between Dune Runner and C Scattershot? Looks like it would make a good repaint

<Dune Runner is old news>

GenZhao of KOtoys.com has posted an in-depth gallery of Revenge of the Fallen Voyager Grindor. Grindor is a repaint of the '07 Movie Blackout.

The mold was originally from Blackout, who was also repainted into Evac, and also released again under the Premium tagline.

Stay tuned to Seibertron.com for your Revenge of the Fallen news!

Sigh~~ I guess getting some new heads would be far too much to ask for

Oh well, I kinda like the colors on Grindor better but still, should have called him whiteout instead

I never got landmine and I kinda wanted too but he flew pretty fast where I live, I might scoop him up

I like Dune Runner a lot--he can be Landmine's sidekick :grin:

Grindor is nice--a new head sculp would have made the decision to get him easy for me, now I'm leaning towards pass though...

Dune Runner looks like the best ROTF scout mold yet (except for maybe Ransack). I love the design. It looks like it will be fun to transform and good for posing too.

Dune runner looks cool, but about Grindor, i think theres a slight difference between him and Blackout, unless its the black face and gold crest thats throwing me off. I'm a big fan of Blackout, but i think Grindor looks alot better just like Whirl looks 10 times better than Evac, besides, i like the idea of the black face with the gold crest.

So is Grindor Blackout-returned or what? I must have missed it if that is already known.

Dune Runner = No.

Wasnt planing on buying this one with or without remolds. Im happy with my original. My friends going to be pissed, he was looking forward to a Blackout with a more movie accurate head.

Meh....

do the dune runner in Blue and make his head a different sculpt and I'll buy him under the name beachcomber..

as for the Repainted Blackout.. one was enough for me.. I was disappointed..they should have done a leaderclass or Voyager for him..

Maybe they'll do an HA version with Hologram Pilot.. half the body is clearish blue plastic, the other is colored..like a marvel legends Invisible woman figure.. now that would rule..

but as it stands.. I'll pass on both..

Blackout is a Voyager class.
