It looks okay, but I still think Longarm's paint job is better.

[Jacob P. Galvatron]

A few people wanted this.
I think it looks terrible.

[Prime Evil]

CP told me this was gonna happen. I didn't this guy the first time. I'll prob be picking up this version. Noice!

[Geekee1]

Alt mode looks spot on. I'm interested to see bot mode.

Is this possibly a custom?

[UltraPrimal]

Finally. Someone at BotCon did this for their art contest entry. I'll definitely buy this and put it with my Classics/Universe figures.

I don't think so, looks too professional with those tampographs.

[Mkall]

Interesting.

I'll wait to see the robot mode before deciding to pull the trigger.

[joevill]

Wow that looks great! A must buy!

[Mach]

TT24, the Arker usually don't post custom items. Not at their news section. The possibility of custom is not high.

[Solrac333]

Cool!

[Narc]

The alt-mode is what you would expect Hoist to be... looks good. But I would want to see the bot-mode before I decide.

Molded orange plastic and transluscent yellow lights? Not likely.

Hasbro said a long time back that the head sculpt was specifically designed for this repaint at some point down the line.

[Tirade]

Looks like a win to me. I like those colors.

[Valandar]

Longarm was one of my favorite TF1 molds (once I unscrewed the gun from the hand), so I'll likely get this when it comes out.

Tell me more! How did you do it? Is it as simple as unscrewing a single screw? And afterwards, can he still hold the gun?

[First Gen]

This has got to be the best G1 hommage from the movie line yet. Jazz was good but this is better.

[karellan]

Being objective about it, I know this isn't any better than the old Longarm paintjob. But having owned and played with the G1 Hoist as an 8-year-old, I have to say this makes me very happy.

[Megatron Wolf]

Thats pretty damn cool if you ask me. Not a real big fan of this mold but since its host i think ill get it. That is if it really does see the light of day. Lets hope the bot mode has some remolds.

[cannonfodder4000]

tfwiki said it was gonna happen XD

[Rijie]

Sweet. My movie-style G1 collection gets another addition.

It's a good figure, too, and even better after I removed the screw that held the gun-assembly in the hand.

[Blurrz]

Oh how beautiful this is. All hail Hoist.

[Lapse Of Reason]

Hoist goes Hollywood! woo hoo!

Welcome classic Hoist.

[Mirage22]

Fans have been talkin' about a repaint like this since Longarm first came out...and finally, WE HAVE IT! WOO-HOO! HOIST!
