*is deeply amused* i actually think its sorta annoying (humorous, but anoying) that hasbro is so blatantly showing us just how much they love money.

HEY we made 2 of the same toy!
gotta buy them both

i love his character description but i think im going to stick with the original paint job and skip this one over.

I don't think I saw the pics for the original version, but I like the Smokescreen motif.

I do have one question, though.

How can it be a movie motorcycle bot without having a unicycle foot and the exploded T-1000 torso?

Don't they realize things that don't look like other things are scary and confusing?

you make a good point but Transformers the movie franchise i guess they made to reboot or evolve the franchise to something that we dreamed upon, cheesy to say but the way thier more humanoid than machine i like it, and some of the movie characters r personally in my opinion have some of the best designs of that character or franchise

I was hoping it was one of those canceled Energon repaints...

Looks like something Super Dave would ride.

Bah, these Scout bios are just lacking in... personality.

I was hoping it was an Energon scout

now that you mention it, it is rather weird that there's a motorcycle that dosnt fit the pattern.
still i like the mold enough to pick it up. and im glad that they did leave one out of the pattern since most of us (at least me and my friends) HATE the monowheel thing that Bay has done with arcee

(ive been looking for a good motorcycle mold ever since i missed out on the arcee model from the first movie and i think this will fit in nicely enough)

The toys arent even out yet and already hasbro is throwing alot of repaint our way. This is one of those good one though. This paint just screams gobots. And for that reason im going to pick this one up. And its one of those few movie figure molds that actually looks like a TF. Does this have any kind of remold compared to the original?

"Still not wrinkled" Hell yeah Super Dave.

Before we get a chance to BUY it? Never mind that, I've never even SEEN this mold before. I think I'll buy it if a get the chance, it looks good.

Hey nice! This is almost exactly what I wanted. Just paint over the blue with black and it'll be perfect. I'll be picking this one up.

I'm a sucker for bike-bots and will be getting any and all repaints of this guy.

The wacky looking "Roadkill Arcee", however .... probably not.

Hmm...an original character with a fun personality and a cool colour scheme. Well played, Hasbro. Wonder why they're keeping the copyright on Reverb though, surely there are other, more vital names...

Reverb is what Deadpool would be as a Decepticon.

i do not see the big deal, reverb is just the scout figure that was never released from the first movie.

we will most likely see the other 2 scouts that were not released also in this line.
