First Look at Possible Deluxe Bonecrusher Repaint? UPDATE: Confirmed Fake

Yikes, that doesn't look so good...

Front paged and credited!

I hope this isn't official. It looks horrible, continuing the trend of awful, awful, awful repaints in the Movie line.

Why is it that everytime a construction vehicle Transformer comes out, it has to be re-released in neon green? Am I the only one who is sick and tired of this trend...? G1 colours do not belong on the movie designs. Pick a generation and stick with it, these repaints look like bad time-travelling accidents.

Don't really like it but I bet it's real. That's my guess.

That is horrible. There is no point in doing repaints, if the repaint looks worse than the original, unfortunately that is the norm, not the exception in this movie line.

Im not sure if it is meant to be a Devastator Homage, or a Cybertron Dirt Boss Homage...

It would make more sense (to me at least) for Hasbro to make a repaint of Brawl in those colours, seeing as they kept calling him Devastator in the film. He could also be a homage to G2 Megatron as well.

The constructicons were more of a yellow in the show so why are the toys always green? If it is real i may get it just to keep in the box. I like the figure but not the green.

if it's official, then someone at Takara has been hitting the bong pretty hard.

weird...i realize he shares the same name as a constructicon but he isnt supposed to be one of em, i mean he's not even a construction vehicle, he's an army one.

this isnt like the autobots where despite being different vehicles, they ARE supposed to be the G1 character.

oh and regarding their color, they've always been a lime green for me...in both the cartoon, animated movie and all the toys.... to that person who thinks they were yellowish, maybe your tv was just dying?

Eh... I can't decide if it's edited from a fan or officially edited to see what he would look like in G1 colors.

Deluxe Acid Trip Bonecrusher.

Looks like a PS to me too. While I enjoy a well done Homage (cybertron, jazz movie hom) this is bd, Can't realy be useful for stories, and doen't say military to me.

Now, If Hasbro would follow my Devart lead and do Soundwave/Blaster from the FAB Frenzy and Scorponok as Scorpnok to save me time...

soooo fake. Clearly digibashed from pictures right here at Seibertron

Yikes that is horrid and godawful! I love the movie colours, realistic, functional, and just badass. Totally suited to the alt mode vehicle Bonecrusher is.

I've never liked the Constructicon green and purple: just doesn't look intimidating and serious. I like Transformers because they are robots with alt modes that seem real. Green construction vehicles? Just don't work for me.

I don't see why there is a need to repaint in G1 colours. This Bonecrusher is a military Buffalo MCPV, not a bulldozer. Colouring his new mode with his old G1 colours is different from repainting Jazz or Ratchet because both incarnations for these guys are very close.

Let's not forget that the difference between G1 and the movie is the same as the difference between a comic and a movie: the colours that work well in a cartoon or on paper just doesn't serve for real life depiction, and can look downright ridiculous. What will they come up with next: yellow spandex?

I think I'd like this, and other Constructicon paint schemes, if they toned down the brightness a bit. drab green and maroon? I'd take that.

can any one say scavenger or possible devastator

It's looks very cartoony on him... mostly because of the purple wheels. (Had it been green, with purple highlights and black wheels it'd been cool)

But it's still one well sculpted figure.

I kinda like it! With the possible exception of 08 Bumblebee, the only figures in the movie line that interest me at all are the repaints.

I actualy like it. But, a Deluxe Brawl remould as G1 Brawl with G1 head would be the BALLS!

I can't see this figure being worth buying again.

The arm kibble kills him for me.

Ya had me till that last line

It's a nice thought that so many characters are getting G1 repaints, but in this particular case, I think Arctic camo or army green would have been a better choice.

Three pages and nobody brought up the similarity between this "repaint" and the Incredible Hulk? I'm shocked.

Seriously, though, it's ugly and stupid...but that's just my take.

If Bonecrusher was this color in the movie, he would have had to say: "You wouldn't like me when I'm angry" right before Prime kicked his arse.

I don't get the point and purple tires?
if you repaint it, go with G2 color scheme

That image looks pretty light. As long as the colors aren't pastels I guess it could work. As pastels, though, it looks too effeminate to be taken seriously. (No offense to the girls out there, but to look at a character or a name like Bonecrusher and think "girly" is too much a contradiction in my mind.)

You've seen X-Men 1? Reference to the X Jet scene.

-_-

Hmmm....Well BJR has given me a reason to aquire the figure now

Bonecrusher... engineer, warrior, searching for a way to tap in to the hidden strengths that all cybertronians have. Then, an accidental overdose of gamma radiation, alters his body chemistry. And now, when Bonecrusher grows angry or outraged a startling metamorphosis occurs. The creature is driven by rage and pursued by an investigative reporter. The creature is wanted for a murder he didn't commit. Bonecrusher is believed to be dead and must let the world think that he is dead, until he can find a way to control the raging spirit that dwells within him.

*Hulk theme plays in the background*

Seriously though....this is a photo edit. The real thing...if there is a real thing, won't be nearly so gaudy. Just take a look at the difference between Laser Magnus, and his Ehobby pics. The real toy didn't actualy turn out that bad.

Lets just be patient, and see what they do with the actual toy. Some decent paint apps, and it could be pretty cool.

Hideous.

WTF?! - Purple tyres, yuck!

It's clearly a shop, I mean... it's too ugly to be official, surely even those idjits at Hasbro couldn't think rollin' on grapes is cool.

it looks like powerlinx cyclonus from armada but hey i like it

It is good to have a homeage of the G1 Bonecrusher, but the green and purple doesn't give the impression of a ruthless killing machine. If there was ever such a thing as a gay robot, then this repaint would take the title.

What the fuck is that thing?! I know it looks like an old school constructicon but forget the repains and give us a voyager class bonecrusher!

Anyone fancy a trip in the Tardis to undo the damage?

It doesn't matter what color they paint him, I'm not picking up him unless they make a Voyager of him. Same with a Leader Starscream, Leader Blackout and Supreme Megatron. Those will probably never happen but I'll Hasbro I'm not buying out of scale Movie toys.

I don't like this colorscheme it looks weird like a Teletubbie but that my oppinion.

Looks like the Hulk! Heheh

They could have put all that time and energy with a repaint into making a bigger figure--time, and money NOT well spent...

Repaints are very quick and cheap to produce; unlike creating brand new molds which is why there are so many repaints about.

Very perceptive! And you're right, it is a fake - they just repainted over the photos from Seibertron:

Devastator would look cool for the 2nd movie. Here is the start of it!

Looks like the Siebs galleries have gone global...

I like the green/purple; my issue is that it's getting redundant. Not counting the Beast Wars reissues, I think the movie (so far, at least) has been the first major line since Energon and Universe that hasn't used this combo at least once. Like I've said, I like the scheme; it's just an example of how sometimes there's too much of a good thing.

thats pretty funny ,he must ave put it in photoshop or somthing

Even though it's a fake I still think it looks pretty cool.

Haha, Pretty Good Photojob right there. Whatever, glad it is a fake as that is one horrid colour scheme.

I have nothing to say here, other than your avatar is adorable.

well thats kind of saddens me

I agree with 1337W422102, that repaint doesn't look good... at all. Glad it's a fake!

Someone went and made Bonecrusher worse? Maybe someday the Cubs CAN win the world series.

I'm so thrilled this turned out to be fake. That is pretty damn ugly and I'm happy enough with the pain job mine already has.

To the update...

Thank God,

And hey Ryan, imitation is the censerist form aof flattery and all!

not impressed colors make him look gay looking i can do the same color scheme with a free program.....
