The Decepticon double agent can be seen in both robot modes, and the snazzy blue vehicle mode, inclusing some in between shots and close ups of certain joints and articulation points. We've mirrored the images below for your viewing convenience, check them out and let us know what you think!
More Bots. More News. More Awesome.

Well, still, a good find!
Maybe you can let the news crew know so if they haven't posted them yet, it'll give them something to do.
Those images are making me reconsider getting the figure.

I wish he either had a bigger gun in a color that was more neutral to better suit use in both modes, or he came with another gun cast in blue to suit the decepticon mode.

To be fair, when in counter punch mode he can always claim he stole the gun from Punch 
He's looking very nice.

Doesn't he also come with Prime Armor since he's a POTP figure?

Yeah, toysrus does that too. Ok, so if you guys do have that system in place, i see no issue with returning the rest of that case to Wal-Mart, just imagine your uncle Ben Barnes The Second gave you a bunch you already have. Plus you would help stock the shelves of your department store with POTP toys

They give you credit and send the unopened toy back to the shelves. Most stores will accept exchanges without receipts if the item is in their system. Walmart takes all your personal info in these cases. Probably to track how often you do thiswilliam-james88 wrote:Serious questions guys, if soneone gives you a toy you already have as present, you would not go to a department store and ask if you could exchange it for one you dont have yet? Dont know if you yanks have this sort of thing, but Toysrus in Canada has a return policy specifically for exchanges concerning gifts with no accompanying receipt. Nothing really shady there.

Looks great, especially like the way they have done the hands. A few gaps in his legs but they do not look bad in the photos. I should have ordered two
but really glad that I could order it and get it for slightly above retail unlike most other exclusives, I would probably have put rub labels on one of them, definitely going on the shelf next to Scorponok and crew to spy on what ever they are up to.

Looking at these pics makes me want to order a second one so I can have him in his robot modes on both my Autobot and Decepticon Headmaster shelves (I'm sure Hasbro would love that). I would just have to trade guns with someone else for his con mode.

He looks really good, can't wait for mine to show up. That said I wish he had been a mass retail figure just so we could have gotten a Deadlock/Drift retool. Yeah I know Drift is still disliked but you gotta admit that mold would have suited him really well.

He's PotP in name only. He's not a Combiner limb as he's missing the peg, thus does not come with any HFG or Prime Armor piece.
I may have to ask my wife to get both Repugnus and Punch...

The black being a sort of dark speckled almost gun metal gray is an interesting choice. You couldn't tell that from the stock photos and I don't hate it.
I still want to see what's under the faction symbol panels. I'm guessing nothing, it seems like if it were peg holes (or anything else interesting) this person would have taken a photo of that.
Can't wait, only a few more weeks to go!

Oh, no doubt that's what they're for, but we haven't seen any shots of either bot from behind yet to see what's going on there. If there's no peg hole then they really missed the opportunity to at least partially incorporate these into PotP. Ultimately I don't really care, I don't use the Prime Armor like that anyway and wouldn't spare one for him to use, but seems like something they would have done if they had always intended for this to be a PotP mold.

Pointblank, why are you dressed up like Counterpunch?
Yes, I know that CP had the look first.
The vehicle mode looks like it's a Camaro mixed with an Aston Martin frame. Nice!

He comes with a prime armour or HFG? None of the pictures have shown him with one or the other

From TFW, also in the gallery of the facebook page linked in the news post.

And Planet Iacon took some in-box photos

Clearly comes with Prime Armor.

That's fair enough
it was just that there had been no pictures mirrored on here that shown the prime armour.
