Some members of funpub have said, on other sites, that they either dislike the mold, or find it too "difficult".

Was that ever confirmed by an official source? That strikes me as a very far-fetched theory otherwise. Far easier to believe it's homaging the red/gold TM2 Waspinator.
Four others of these figures are all Diaclone homages.

The Waspinator 4-pack is called "Waruders".

There's no gold on the red Waspinator.

The two Waspinators based on known Waspinator decos both have their decos laid out in pretty much exactly where each color was on the original, so a proper Transmetal Waspinator homage would likely not be as half-baked as this one would be if it were meant to be based on Transmetal Waspinator.

The red Waspinator has all of its colors laid out in accordance to the deco layout of Warudaros with an overall red body, black on the upper torso surrounding dark blue details, gray/silver shoulders/hands/lower torso, striped thighs, teal/blue forearms, and dark blue translucent plastic.

Wow, those are amazingly obscure characters... and Sentinel Prime.

Seriously, this is basically a "bottom of the barrel, last guys you'd ever expect to get toys" set, but then there's Sentinel Prime, which is just hilarious. :lol: "You promised you wouldn't laugh!"

Fellow Seibertronian gema brings the final pictorial review of BotCon 2015 exclusives, as confirmed by a recent report from the event here - featuring the Generations Roadbuster redeco into Generation 2 General Optimus Prime, in green camo! Check out thoughts and photos below, and head here for more.

The paint apps and finishing is nicely done and detailed. Even the rims are fully painted.
Not sure about the others but when I first saw him, the camo itself is not enough to identify him. Luckily, the G2 Autobot logo narrowed down the search.

While the original G2 version transformed into a dumper truck, having a new version of General Optimus Prime that transform into a fully weaponize off-road vehichle is not really a bad choice (personally).

Personally, the alt mode is just okay for me, not bad but not great either. But I'm really surprised how the robot mode turn out to be with G2 General Optimus Prime's paint scheme.

Not only he has the same star on the chest just like the unreleased G2 version, the head sculpt does resembles the original mold which can explain why Roadbuster mold was chosen in the first place.

The quality of the figure is pretty much the same as previous variants and the joints are even tighter than my Generations Roadbuster.

I want those bugs :x Adding Reflector in the mix was probably forced, bumping up the value to the standard Scout-Deluxe grey area, and being gang-molded with Skrapnel. :-?

btw Anybody notice that the bio card has no faction symbol of any kind:

Zaptrap himself is more like an animal, with Beet-Chit as his master or "pilot". They have to be from the Diaclone universe, now part of the Cymond cluster along with other TF-related franchises (like Microman, Yuusha/Brave and even Starriors). Can't wait to see the other Souvenirs.

They don't want to mess with the crap shoulder engineering. I'm good with it.

I think General OP is the best-looking version of the Roadbuster mold, by far.

Guys, I may have found the name of the Reflector redeco: Spy-Eye. If it sounds familiar yet a bit lame, you'd be right as that's the name of a Super Gobot:

Spy-Eye on TFU.info.

Also, the red makes him resemble Spectro:

The name supposedly comes from the comic, and those who have it say he works with the Diaclone guys, so his toy is a good guy but comes with bad guys.

Good guys, bad guys - going off where we've seen some of these decos in the club comic, this was all just SG without being SG, wasn't it? ;)
