Don't know why, but Road Pig really speaks to me. I had no interest in Junkions, but damn. that black and red is sweet.
I'd also be all over an Armada Sideways retool of this guy.

I hate to say it, but the Prowl/Chromia mold would better match Armada Sideways's silhouette.Overcracker wrote:I'd also be all over an Armada Sideways retool of this guy.

That Road Pig is perfect all over. Especially with the clear exhaust pipes that are a direct reference to the original.

So he actually has TRANSFORMERS stamped on his gas tank?

I'll respectfully disagree.
This guy has all the right beats. Saddle bags, translucent exhausts, long seat back.
He just needs a different front end, and since it's just his foot, it would be an easy retool.

I was talking more about the robot mode, which is Sideways's more iconic mode since it's the one that made use of his iconic Headmaster faction-swapping gimmick.Overcracker wrote:Sabrblade wrote:I hate to say it, but the Prowl/Chromia mold would better match Armada Sideways's silhouette.Overcracker wrote:I'd also be all over an Armada Sideways retool of this guy.

I hope a third party does a proper windshield and headlights that can be popped over the current one and maybe have the glass detach and snap over his belly somehow, that would be great. But as is, he really turned out good, especially that head sculpt. It's interesting that the one with the box has black thighs like the original figure, but the one in the gallery has red thighs like the original box art and prototype. I hope we're getting the latter, it looks really good with more red, but the art on the side of the new box appears to have black thighs so maybe that's not possible with the parts layout? I can't really tell what the forearms are parted with since they're red in all photos, but it seems the shoulder joints and thighs are one one sprue while the wheels, ankle joint, knee joint and neck joint are on another. That makes it hard to tell just what they could be planning for the final figure. Hopefully we get an update from Mark or Sam that explains the actual colors when these are officially announced.
I hope they come back to this later, I'd like an RID Axer even if he is just the same figure without the red and a little dark blue. This mold may not suit Armada Sideways but it does suit his Robot Masters counterpart.

Plus it would be really cool if they did some unfinished business and did a special chromed out Soundwave figure that was canceled. Would they do Microman Road Bison? Can't really see it, but it's a really good looking silver version of the mold.

Robot mode, may be a bit harder. The headmaster gimmick is not something I see them doing on a retool though, even on a Prowl retool.
But since this mold's chest is entirely fake, something can be aded there for that faction swapping. Not spring loaded, but a rotatable panel might work.

Same, though I don't know which specific figure it was for, it's safe to say it's going to go for all of the Deluxe figures. Kinda funny that they're throwing Hasbro under the bus instead of some wishy-washy vague excuse.

A robotmasters Sideways repaint of the mold would be cool if only because of the insanely deep cut.

I'm sure you are correct. I only ordered Lockdown from the first batch, and got the same notice. RoadPig...was September I think? In any case, it wouldn't be a Walmart pre-order without a delay, that's fine, as long as it isn't cancelled. At least they made them all available, unlike the last 2 series where the only ones I wanted never got a pre-order listing on Walmart.

This is all over the place. Walmart Canada got their packs for Filch and are shipping them out, but they delayed lockdown.
At least it means Walmart and Pulse are getting solid cases for their online orders

The Legacy Star Raiders line is upon us. Hasbrouck Pulse shipped out Ferak a little while ago and are now shipping Filch. The better news is that Wal-Mart is shipping Filch out in Canada, meaning that a North American Wal-Mart is rolling out their stock. It also means that the web orders are using solid case packs, as intended, leaving assorted cases for retail. Below is a review of Filch and images comparing her to the original Airazor mold.
As you'll see, Hasbro gave this character extra attention and this seems to be the best version of the mold yet.

Canada for sure, but you'll recall in the US during the Velocitron line they refused to use solid cases even online. Not sure if that was true for the Toxitron line but it seemed that way.

Ah right. If the US has them all coming out at the same time then maybe they arent getting solid cases.
