Heheh..."lacking in repaints and BumbleBee figures..."
Anyhow, I'll probably get BoneCrusher as I didn't get the 07 one and I need one, but they NEED to make a very large Voyager of him. At least with Blackout there's many supplies out there to build a bigger one, but it's a bit tougher with BoneCrusher.
EDIT:I forgot, that BumbleBee repaint looks like the worst repaint I've ever seen.

I really really like it. It's so terrible that it's kind of awesome.
I think G2 fever is affecting more than just Botcon maybe..

"Whistle"....whistle....Ummm These are not new these are repaints! But i do like the Breakaway repaint for some reason. And for Bonecrusher repaint, i hope Hasbro has fixed the loose claw/arm that attaches to the bumper...

Maybe if it was on a different character, but I don't know, too bright, and I hate the(as someone put it) "Lemur Head."
I'll be waiting for the one with the Axe.

Elita-1 is the only one of this group that I'll get, just to complete my bike-trio
(And you'd think they'd actually paint her in purple! And use a new mold! But then again, they might have a pathetic excuse which means they can't use the purple it should have. And I can only think that the same mold as Chromia means it's cost-effective...Same reason they are re-issuing the Deluxe Bonecrusher and not creating the Voyager that we need!)

Bleh, I wanted a Leader Blackout and Voyager BoneCrusher before I was even into TransFormers...I think they'd still make money, they just hate us....

What's the deal with the clear figures. If you're going to keep using the seeker mold, give us Sunstorm already.

I wonder that as well, what exactly are they for, just...collecting?

I haven't been able to find the Breakaway mold anywhere, hopefully third time's the charm. The color scheme... will take some getting used to. And his face seems to be obscured.
Glad that BB repaint isn't a lot like all the other BBs.

This may be a little hard to believe, as TransFormers have been in the top five best selling toys for what?...25 years now. A few days ago a list came out of the top 10 movies that have come out in the past 18 months, with the most merchandise sold. I was a little surprised to see that TransFormers didn't make the list.
I under stand that pepole love or hate the movies, it's just that people love TransFormers. I thought a lot more sold then that.
Anyway, I hope the new stuff, generations, leader class Starscream etc... come out soon.

I find that even harder to believe because there were almost no good movies in the past 18 months, you had Toy Story 3 and ROTF(depending on who you ask) and Avatar(also depending on who you ask), I can't say Iron Man 2 yet since I haven't seen it but I expect it was good.

Give up. Kids don't want them, Hasbro doesn't care about scale, so we won't get them. It's that simple.
Only the last two repaints are news to me, and Bumblebee's looking a bit blue from either lack of love from fans, or choking love from the kids
![Laughing :lol:]()
The Breakaway repaint looks ok, I'd need to know who he is first. O, and a close-up on the head. Will it be a Breakaway head, or Thrust head?

THEY DON'T? I was a kid at the time though...still am depending on who you ask, I SHALL NEVER GIVE UP!
Then we must uh...make them want it! Yessss, now to make a stupid plan that will definitely fail and result in explosion along with "we're blasting off again...*twing*"

That Breakaway repaint possible looks to be a Thrust repaint based on the slight view of the head, and the color scheme says "Skywarp", which would be cool. Didn't like the first movie Starscream mold. That BB looks like a knock-off it's so cheesy. These pics are coming from KO Toys....

So? They've been reliable in the past. Besides, they'd know whether or not a toy is a KO given their expertise.

Heheh, indeed. Still looking forward to BoneCrusher, maybe someone will figure out how to make an oversized knockoff or something, anything for this scale that is poison to Hasbro...

The blue on that Bumblebee is bad. I don't mean "so bad it's good", but just flat out bad. UGH.

I actually do like the BB repaint, although not enough to justify anther 'Bee. The jet definietly looks like it has the Thrust head.
I'm on the fence with Elita-1. I'm sure she'll shelf-warm so I'll wait and see if they repaint the Arcee mold (or this one) purple.
As for Bonecrusher, if they named him Conebrusher or Crushboner he would be bought on sight, but as is, no.

They're all passes except that other reiteration of the Breakaway figure. Sexy.

Aside from the Bonecrusher repaint (which is only so-so) these look horrid. The Thrust repaint just doesn't quite do it for me & the Bumblebutt is agonizing to look at. On a related note, as far as ROTF repaints, I am digging on the Fallen repaint. He looks nice in blue & finally has a staff.
