And it was all yellow. They're lyrics to the breakout song from Coldplay's album 'Parachutes' and also describes what just happened to the Voyager Long Haul mold. From reliable Ebay seller TFCToy, our lean, mean, green dump truck machine is getting repainted into familiar colours. Devastator, along with his components, was repainted yellow in Generation 2. This Long Haul also comes with some slight weathering on the sides. Check it out below.

Well. I think that's the last of the Constructicons to be repainted.

Posted by Kibble on January 12th, 2010 @ 10:56pm CST

I think I might like that one better actually. Don't think I'll buy the mold again, but it does look pretty good.

This will go great with Rampage.

An all Yellow and Black set of Constructicons would look a lot better than the G1 Green and Purple if you ask me.

I like it, the only set of Constructicons I had when I was young was the yellow G2 Devastator and I really dug him. It's cool that they are donig repaints to the ROTF Constructicons that are tributes to ALL of their former incarnations it seems.
G2 Long Haul, G2 Rampage(I think the red one is the real one and the yellow the repaint.), G1 MixMaster, Shattered Glass Demolisher, and I know Dirt Boss isn't technically a constructicon but I see him as one, painted into his Go-Bot colors (or orange Devastator).

Re: Revenge of the Fallen Long Haul Repaint Revealed (1036444)
Posted by UltraPrimal on January 12th, 2010 @ 11:28pm CST

Well, I guess since he was already more or less in his G1 green colors, they had to go with G2.

Re: Revenge of the Fallen Long Haul Repaint Revealed (1036448)
Posted by Skyfire77 on January 12th, 2010 @ 11:48pm CST

Well, at least now he looks like the Cat 797 he was based on.

Not really loving the effect in bot mode though. It almost looks like they had to use some left-over parts from the regular green version to finish this one.

Posted by Chaoslock on January 13th, 2010 @ 12:08am CST

Damn, I think that figure looks cool in those colors. And I hate Bayformers... This might be the first one of the RotF figures I'll buy.

Posted by Fires_Of_Inferno on January 13th, 2010 @ 12:18am CST

Hah! It's hiddious! I love it! XD Though, I think I prefer the green to be honest. Told myself that if I was going to get a constructicon right away it'd be LongHaul since the other two have repaints to be released in Canada soon, but seeing as there's a repaint for Longhaul planned now I might pick up Mixmaster instead and wait for Longhaul and Demolishor.

Dig this guy! Skyfire77 thanks for the real pic, the comparison is nice, I didn't realize how gigantic he is. I'm anxious to find out who he is packed with/whether he'll be in the nest line or not

Posted by The Happy Locust on January 13th, 2010 @ 12:42am CST

Tough call on which color scheme I like better. This one has a really nice contrast but there's something to be said for the original's green scheme. I'll probably pass since I don't feel like spending an extra $20 on it and have the Original version

dont kno about you guys but i like it!
and i hope reprolabels well have a sticker set for it with the CAT 797 logo

Re: Revenge of the Fallen Long Haul Repaint Revealed (1036480)
Posted by Blurrz on January 13th, 2010 @ 1:52am CST

Personally I believe that Red Rampage, White Demolisher, G1 Mixmaster and Yellow Long Haul are superior to their original renditions. Here's hoping that whatever's left of the ROTF toy line after NEST finishes strong. Well... we're starting off well.

I got to admit, I actually like this repaint.

Of course, the yellow dump truck DID actually feature in the movie itself. See here:

yes! i want to get all of the repaints now! cant have too many constructicons! :wink:

Posted by Mykltron on January 13th, 2010 @ 4:37am CST

It's pretty gaudy but construction vehicles often are yellow. The dirt wash is a nice touch.

Re: Revenge of the Fallen Long Haul Repaint Revealed (1036524)
Posted by Stockade on January 13th, 2010 @ 5:43am CST

WOW! I kinda like this for some reason and it would look good with the Red Rampage and the White Demolishor as well! Since the ROTF is slowly coming to an end, maybe Takara/Hasbro will do this? Plus! theres always room for wishful thinking...

Wonder if he could pass of as Landfill?

Re: Revenge of the Fallen Long Haul Repaint Revealed (1036538)
Posted by starfish on January 13th, 2010 @ 7:04am CST

I really don't know why people are moaning (or surprised at this). I mean, every mould these days get at least one repaint before being retired.

I think I'm right in thinking that of the entire First Movie Line, (Cyber Slammers excepted) only Legends Bonecrusher and Deluxe Payload are still to be released anywhere in alternative colour schemes.

Sigh...

It's from the game, the RotF game.

Also, it's awesome, very, very awesome.

You sure it's a G2 homage and not a homage to the 2003 Universe line?

Oh, hell yeah. That's a great repaint. Looks just like my old Tonka truck. Must-buy for me.

No, what I'm telling you is that I'm sure, 100% that it's representative of the Truck Drones in the RotF game.

It's also Long Haul's alternate skin in that game.

Re: Revenge of the Fallen Long Haul Repaint Revealed (1036557)
Posted by Scaleface on January 13th, 2010 @ 8:19am CST

I saw those and they are sorta generic pee yellow/green. Thhis guy has nice Tankor-like detailing. If it's chance, I still love it.

Re: Revenge of the Fallen Long Haul Repaint Revealed (1036564)
Posted by Cobalt Prime on January 13th, 2010 @ 9:06am CST

I really dig those red blades. Its a shame the first release had those nondescript clear ones instead of red or orange.
Will probably pick this one up since it is a striking enough repaint to warrant a purchase.

Re: Revenge of the Fallen Long Haul Repaint Revealed (1036566)
Posted by Ironhide516 on January 13th, 2010 @ 9:23am CST

Think I'm glad I held off buying the green one; liking this repaint better. It'll probably be packaged w/ a deluxe fig. & be a TRU exclusive.

Re: Revenge of the Fallen Long Haul Repaint Revealed (1036573)
Posted by Nickolai on January 13th, 2010 @ 9:39am CST

The color scheme is very... let's say 'Energon'. I like it, strong yellow and translucent red look great paired together.

Ooh! You're probably right on that. That would be cool!
Like what they did with Hoist and Mixmaster. I'm really picky with repaints, but that set's colors along with the new head on MM prompted me to buy it. Now you got me wondering what deluxe Autobot they'll repaint to go with LH, and if they'll alter the mold in any way to make it more distinct.

Agreed. Never really liked the green and purple much myself...I always thought disguises were meant to be, you know, disguising. But in my 35+ years, I have NEVER seen construction vehicles the colors of the G1 'Cons so I always figured they'd stick out like a neon green thumb. This repaint is really nice though...I'm particularly impressed by the dirt detailing on the bed.

Re: Revenge of the Fallen Long Haul Repaint Revealed (1036599)
Posted by Scaleface on January 13th, 2010 @ 11:04am CST

I just hope that Hasbro has more imagination with his name then just calling him "Longhaul" again. How about Tankor? (just forget that Legends Brawl redeco!)

Re: Revenge of the Fallen Long Haul Repaint Revealed (1036600)
Posted by kirbenvost on January 13th, 2010 @ 11:10am CST

That is a really nice repaint. I really like the more traditional black & grey head, and all these colors are a nice combo in general. Not so sure I like the brown wheels though. However, since I already have the first version I won't be getting this one. Also, green screams 'Decepticon' to me a lot more than yellow.

Re: Revenge of the Fallen Long Haul Repaint Revealed (1036615)
Posted by NassaDane on January 13th, 2010 @ 11:47am CST

Its really hard to say which is better. I think i have to say green looks best but both are very nice colors indeed. The red clear plastic looks amazing and the dirt touch is great. Green just seems to fit him a tad bit better. Plus the green looks more G1-ish. I missed the Green one so its possible i could get this one. The only problem is that i enjoy having money... It seems brown wheels are being abused just a tad in the most recent figures. I like the red dots oh his chest, just a nice touch.

Re: Revenge of the Fallen Long Haul Repaint Revealed (1036638)
Posted by Swiftpaw on January 13th, 2010 @ 1:27pm CST

Not a surprising repaint to see coming. Both the generic 'constructicon' trucks and Long Haul himself appear in a G2 yellow skin in the high end console games.

Not that I'd get him a second time, but I do like the weathering touches. Despite being a bit taller and less broad than his screen incarnation, this is a really nice figure and I'm glad to see it getting the repaint treatment instead of ANOTHER Blackout redeco or something.

Now if only they'd actually MAKE a Scrapper and Hightower other than Legends form...

Re: Revenge of the Fallen Long Haul Repaint Revealed (1036646)
Posted by Swiftknife24 on January 13th, 2010 @ 1:55pm CST

You know, when I say the thumb-nail I thought 'that's one goofy lookin' figure'...

Then it dawned on me; the truck's yellow, usually...

So now I don't think it looks so bad. :lol:

Got the Green Version already...the only thing better about this one is the red swords, Long haul looks too much like a Tonka truck to me. The Red swords are cool however I just wish they'd finish making all of the constructicons instead of just more repaints.

As to be expected, CP's right. Any time I was Long Haul in that game, I played as the yellow alternate skin. The only thing missing on this toy version is the yellow head to match.
