I like it... I've already picked up Cybertron Downshift, and wouldn't mind another one, especially with this color scheme!
I can't wait to find it...

Hard to tell from the pictures, but looks pretty cool so far. Nice homage to an obscure character. Too bad it's a WalMart exclusive. They should have saved it for Universe.

You know what's funny? We'll probably get him in the UK, seeing as of late we've got pretty much all the mainline toys that were store specific, even though we've missed really important cantecters from the shows...
That and it apears we've ended up with a nearly full roster of the movie's mainline.

Now there's a name I thought Hasbro'd never re-trademark. Excellent choice of mold and repaint colors. Loving those flames on the sides, too! To bad it's a Wal-Mart exclusive, 'cuz that means eBaying it up over the border and that'll cost more than I'd it to.
Bloody store exclusives...

I have Cybertron Downshift, but this color scheme is awesome! I love the name too!

A must have for me. Looks good, like the orange, can’t wait to see robot mode. These are the sort of store exclusives they should make.

I don't know... I think one downshift is enough for me.. maybe if this came with a feathered hat and technicolor dreamcoat.. then I might reconsider buying Big Daddy..

Looks cool. I have been meaning to get downshift but could never find him anywhere, hopefully once this line is out over here i can finally pick one up...abelt with a different paint job and a silly name.

I'm a huge fan of the Downshift figure as it is, so this is a must-have for me!

I'll chime in here (I post so many news stories, I forget to actually post what I think of this stuff!)
Anyway, I love it - I'm a huge fan of obscure-character homages, and this mold fits both the character and the look and style of the movie-bots. This will be one memorable repaitn, I'm sure! Great stuff!

Getting a li'l desperate for repaints when they're tapping into the Deluxe from past lines now, aren't they?
Not that I should complain, as I love the cybertron Downshift mold and its a very nice homage to an obscure but also nice figure. I'll definately pick up this figure when I can, even if I already have Cyb. Downshift.

The point of this figure is the name. If naybody ever says Habsro doesn't listen, this is the figure that should show them they do. We asked Hasbro for their last muscle car figure to be named Big Daddy, and people were pissed when they didn't. Instead they do this for us. This proves that they do listen.

Nice.. I'm really liking that red. And Downshift is a great figure anyways.

Man this looks badass, I'm glad they're reusing Cyberstron deluexe molds for the movie line. I always knew there was something realistic about the cyberstron molds. The new paintjob looks awseome!

TFormers.com has the other three in the 4-set of Cybertron repaints from Walmart. They include a Thundercracker repainted yellow as Divebomb, Landmine repainted green as "Grindcore" and Crosswise repainted as G2 Laser Rod Jolt.
http://tformers.com/ig.php?mode=album&a ... 00&start=0Now anyone else wondering about Grindcore as an alternative to Timelines Rhinox?
I might just get him and some reprolabels Maximal symbols.

Grindcore is a homage to G2 Roadblock and Divebomb is a slight homage to G2 Hooligan (if he were orange and had tiger stripes he would be accurate but as he is, he is pretty close).

I think G2 Roadblock was yellowish, wasn't it? The repaint, Beast Wars Predacon Autocrusher was green.

QFT Getterdragun! I for one think the Big Daddy & Grindor repaints look awsome and I plan on getting them! Great job Hasbro.

It sure would have saved me some time/money/effort had I known this was coming. First repaint I did for this figure was metallic blue w/orange & yellow flames. Didn't like the results so I stripped it and re-did him in Black with blue and white flames. Better but this new figures effect is, of course, much cleaner since the flames aren't hand painted. I'm definitely getting one of these.

Interesting choice of characters names to use, and a good selection of Cybertron moulds too, I know many people dislike the Thundercracker mould, but it isn't that terrible of a figure.
Painting schemes seem to be a much better improvement on original movie toys too.

Divebomb looks ridiculously good. Probably gonna pick up all 4 of those exclusives. And I never thought i'd ever say that when it comes to movie line figures.

Pure awesome. I'm definitely getting Big Daddy - the name makes it worthy enough to be picked up. I'll definitely get Grindcore too. This movie line is definitely all-encompassing, now that they have the humanoid aesthetic as well as the alien aesthetic.
Awesome line. Awesome.

I hate repaints, but may be tempet to pick this up and call him Low Rider

Lovin' this! That is a great mould to start with. Still say that they should have repainted Armada Wheeljack sometime over the last few years!
