Yeah. If there are no other, better offerings, I can very easily live with these add-ons. They look decent enough stowed in alt mode.

Well, this should make X happy :P

They look rather nice. I'm not usually one for upgrade kits, but I just might get this if the price is right.

These are really nice, I like how the Hoist one incorporates the crane arm he comes with.
If you take the back mounted missiles or whatever from this set for Trail, and use it along with the Belezeboss offering you can have a pretty accurate representation of the idw incarnation.

What's even cooler is that both mount the gun on a different arm, further differencing the figures. Man I love upgrade kits like these. If I still collected main line toys I would get this set and the Belzeboss set, two Trails and and two Hoists then make a Classics and an idw version of both.

Love those wings for Hoist. Definitely getting this.

The arms cannons look kinda cool, not exactly G1 accurate though. Wish Trailcutter had a shoulder cannon like his cartoon design.

I feel someone from Shapeways will make some cool arm cannons though...

Just because you have a youtube review channel doesn't make you special.
I look forward to attending a Botcon soon only to settle matters with several idiots in person (yes this is a threat).

Seconded. These look nigh-perfect. Great updates to Trailbreaker and Hoist.

I wish they would have included a black head for Hoist, but in a worst case scenario, Ill buy an extra Hoist and take care of that myself. ;)

I'd say Hoist upgrade is the meat of this set and is much appreciated. Trailbreaker's upgrade isn't bad and will be very welcome if they come together.

Yes, these are needed.

I just got Turdcutter and he's kind of disappointing.
This helps.

Hoist always looked better of the two from this mold IMO, but the add on kit raises his stock even more.

Well, welcome him anyway. :)

And now that I have my Trailbreaker in hand... I'll take the upgrade kit, please. I really like him... but I think I'd love him a bit more G1-accurate.

#-o

[Edit] And a Sept 2013 release date. Quick turnaround. Can they get in Trailbreaker's shoulder cannon? #wishfulthinking

Ultimately I agree with rpetras and mooncake623. I'll have to wait for molded/painted pics before deciding for sure.

At those ridiculous prices I've only (tentatively) pre-ordered Hoist's set. No way Trailcutter's warrants the same price.

Friggin' rip-off merchants. (X2 I mean, not BBTS.)
