The blue is a little odd, but this looks better than Hasbro's exclusive!
The Blazemaster redeco looks okay, but that mold in itself is kinda eh. Though I think it looks more like a homage to Blades than Evac.

To me it's just another cheezy way to make more money out of nothing special.
Repaint him, make him limited edition, call him exclusive and voila you suckers buy the crap, and it even isn't movie accurate indeed.
Just like King Grimlock, okay, I can see why they released him as the comic version, and indeed, they did quite a nice job and he looks cool. But justify that the price tag on him?
Give me a break, but hey, I won't stop you guys, go right ahead!

How that homages G1 Ravage I can't see. Evac looks alright, although I'm not interested the mold. Also, what's up with the influx of douchebaggery lately?

Of all the paintjobs I have seen of Ravage, I like the first Hasbro paintjob the best. The red on the exclusive looks out of place, and the baby blue instead of silver on this one should be grey. Ugh.
I think the Evac mold looks terrible.

Well, there's two more to buy. I lucked out with not having to buy Swerve, Stalk Scorponok, and Dead End, but these guys are weirdly different enough to buy.

It's not. Bit of a clarification: Takara tends to release less figures in their main line, since the Japanese hate redecos, much more those that are new characters. As an incentive, he will be an exclusive in Japan, but not to Japan, in the US he's still general retail. The same goes for ROTF Voyager Prime, Stalker Scorponok, Swerve and deluxe Dead End. And I must be the only one who really likes Evac despite his odd looks. I have to see him in person first before I get him though.
As for Ravage, I think Takara went for movie-accuracy instead of a G1 homage. The blue still looks out of place though.

No, Evac will see general release everywhere. I only meant that the Ravage was a TakTom Exclusive.

I didn't say the entire figure homages G1 Ravage... just when he's in kitty kat mode (it's a long stretch). The douchebaggery... well that's cause of the Bayverse. It's all the influx of reborn fans who think G1 is the only thing that exists.Flux Convoy wrote:How that homages G1 Ravage I can't see. Evac looks alright, although I'm not interested the mold.

Suckers? Buddy, people like you are the ones feeding on the news I make. What does that make you?
And good. One less person trying to get a figure means more of a chance that I can get it.
I'm all for people having their opinions, but don't sound like you're omniscient.. cause you aren't.
That's the sad fate of Transformers packaging. If we only lived off clamshells...

Oh please spare me the lecture dude. Like your so almighty and your wisdom surpasses beyond all of our imaginations, that I am not allowed to give my opinion how I feel about this crap.
Laff, just one less, are you sure on that bro?
Omniscient, wow did you have to look that up?

Incredible that you are so offended by the word suckers.
But you don't impress me at all with your fancy words.

I really like the G1 flavored Ravage and i'm going to try and get my hands on him since I didn't like the Recon Ravage I can stand another of this mold. Evac I just don't care for, the mold is strange to me.
Torneira, you need to lay off Blurrz, he's on here to discuss and find out info about a hobby that WE ALL SHARE. If there is something you don't like, state that, state why you don't, and then move on. There's no need to attack people. Are you getting on here trying to belittle people to make yourself feel tough or something? There are other sites for stuff like that, google self loathing chat and get yourself a screen name.

Why do they want this repaint so bad if they have no interest in other repaints? Is this figure expected to be valuable due to it being a mail-away?

He is a member of the staff, but respect works both ways and it's not that I am an employee who's job depend upon, that I have to grovel and start buttkissing.
But I can admit this is no site to make domestic squabbles, so therefor let us take our prozac in and drop the matter.

Why do you think scalpers exist? People who stock up on toys for resell on EBay?

And that's where you've got it wrong. This is all volunteer work. No job. No earnings. No nothing. When you insult me and half the fandom by calling us 'suckers', I don't care if I'm working my ass off to help the site or a forum passerby, it's damn well insulting.
