Very nice.

The more I see of them, the more I don't like promo photos. The lighting is so bright and harsh, it really distorts the actual colour of materials under normal lighting conditions.

Cool. I hope these make their way over to Asda in the UK. I would like to own a Red Powerglide. Not bothered about the other two though.

Notice that Walmart named Hardhead as "Onslaught" #-o

Man, I really want to like Powerglide, but those chesticles and his tiny wast are killing it for me. I was battling with myself as to whether or not I would get him and thought that the G1 colors would sell me, but I think it's the mold that I'm not big on.

Pop a Barbie head on it and voilà! Dolly Parton Crossover TF.

I hate to say it... I really do, but he's a pass.

In other news, I found Ejector at a Wal-Mart in the Dallas area yesterday. He was too quirky to pass on and he turned out to be a pretty cool toy.

Looks like they forgot to flip Hardhead's upper leg around before taking the picture :lol:

Good eye there Jenus and looks like they did the same with Skyfall's upper leg too. :lol:

Well, Powerglide does look a lot better in red, but the robot mode of that mold is just terrible, IMHO. It's got terrible proportions, and after having the original (which I gave to my sons) I just can't bring myself to buy that mold again. You can paint a turd gold, but that doesn't make it worth anything.

I like the G1 co colors on Powerglide, it's much better than that white deco they had on him originally. I really like Hardhead in this wave especailly his spray-painted crossed out Decepticon logo!

Well either way, glad to see Powerglide's orginal colors back on him, didnt like the white/beige colors thats hasbro had him and wasnt paying for the takara version either. And for Skyfall and Hardhead thats a win either way!

Not unless you call it art. Then, it's priceless!

I think I'm going to buy Hardhead.

Going to pass on the other 2 though, Powerglide doesn't interest me in the slightest. And I like Darkwing alot more than Skyjack.
