Buyer Beware! KO Botcon Breakdown, Punch and More.

Was the G1 painted version of Breakdown officially released?

hey hasbro, if you made a breakdown then people would not have to go to KOs for one. of which i am doing. that does look awesome. i have to get it. i already have an official botcon G2 breakdown.

NNNOOOOoooo. Although I would buy one if it was.

This is good news, so long as they don't try to sell them at 'con exclusive prices!

Finally a G1 Deluxe Breakdown that will take its place in my G1 Stunticons composed of SDCC Nemesis Prime with commander armor, SE Dragstrip, Movie Swerve, and Henkei Wildrider

So Awesome!!!

I can finally hope of owning x3 punch/counterpunchs for my display without having to shell out 600+ dollars on ebay!

That g1 breakdown deco is also a hell yes!!! gettign 2 of those bad boys will look great next to dragstrip!

Such a simple redeco, hasbro could have done...instead hasbro would rather give us skyshadow and an ugly ass wreck gar repaint....tsk ...tsk..

And the icing on this awsome news is SCAMPER! who will look great next to my G1 metroplex!

It it's a G1 Classic Breakdown, it's not Hasbro. They didn't make one.

That was to reference the authentic figures. I'm aware, that Hasbro never made a G1 Breakdown, I'm sure most people are. Thanks for sharing this with us BTW!

we can only hope the head on punch isnt tiny like the hasbro version, why was the head so damn small

Ugh.....i so love that G2 Breakdown. LOVE IT!
I'll buy a KO of that figure now that one is available.

EDIT: probably not actually.

It's pretty obvious Scamper is a KO as there is no Classics version for him. I would be interested in Scamper and G1 Breakdown myself. W/ the closing of KOToys I need to find out where to get these figures now. Would still like to get my hands on a KO Wildrider and if there is one, a KO Dragstrip.

IT"S NOT SCAMPER YOU DAFT PRICKS! IT"S DEEP COVER!

I know, I have 2 of them :p One in robot mode, and one in car mode, I think I seen a review on it.

Breakdowns just a custom, and the others seem to reference photos, as P/CP has the Fansproject cannon.

They already KOed Drag Strip.

Can get Breakdown if you get White / Blue / Grey / Black - DIY kit and smash together. Would also have a G2 Sideswipe from that. >.>
Just no TFCC heads. -Never will be a G2 colored KO Breakdown I bet.

Hasbro already released a few official breakdown toys.
here's a link with pics of the Revenge of the fallen basic/scout sized Breakdown toy:

I thought this was a excellent updated homage as they nailed the proper size scale in relation to how the 1985 toy size was. it was also a decent updated homage as it was the right color,similar alt mode & it was very poseable.

LOL the KO version is also small, and missing one of his antenna.

YES finally i may possibly be able to buy breakdown at non-convention prices Hurah- Cough I mean this is bad this is stuff and things and bad again.......

Personally I love these things for the sheer fact others will be able to afford these at normal prices.

I have zero interest in these. as I'm satified with one copy of the mold. I don't need nor do i have the space nor spare cash to buy every single repaint/remold that comes out.

Anyways,IMHO,The classics sunstreaker mold was MEDIOCRE,It wasn't that spectacular to get every repaint/remold.

1- Skyshadow originally came from the 1989 Japanese Takara TF victory cartoon series & toy line. the toy/charcter was originally called Blackshadow in 1989 but hasbro couldn't get the rights to the name or felt using Black would sound offensive. 1989 blackshadow was a recolor/remold using the 1988 Mega pretender thunderwing toy mold.

1a-It's worth mentioning in walmarts price scanner the generations skyshadow toy scans up as the following abbreviation: BLK SHDW,Which is abreviated for black shadow. so at one point hasbro was going to use the original 1989 black shadow name but changed their minds at the last minute.

2- as most in this thread already noted,this isn't scamper. Scamper was a 100% black colored mold. this is meant to be another tranasformers character/toy as this toy is colored black & white.

So, you'd rather see, another Universe Sunstreaker repaint, instead of Black Shadow?

Is that what you said? I think that was what you said.
