Thanks to Ben Yee over at his website BWTF.com, we've got a review of a brand new scout class repaint. The figure happens to be Scout Class Backfire, who's a repaint of Revenge of the Fallen Knock Out. Backfire is a red and white motorcycle, and is the third repaint of Knock Out, following Reverb and Trenchmouth. You can check out the biography of Backfire and some of the images below, while the review in all of it's entireity can be seen over at BWTF.com.

Many battles between TRANSFORMERS happen at high speed, but few are as spectacular as those between robots trained to use the traffic around them as a weapon. BACKFIRE is a master of zipping between moving vehicles as if they were standing still while keeping his sensors trained on his target. OIL PAN may be famous for his ability to disappear in plain sight, but there's no way he's getting away this time.

Is the black & neon one an homage to the GoBot repaint of Cy-Kill?

Hmm..."Robots that Turn into Vehicles...". Sounds stupid to me. Give me Action Masters any day 8-}

I'm gonna have to say reverb is the best when it comes to paint.

I'd never thought of that. Which is strange, for me. I now *want* a Cy-Kill version of this mold.

With a few paint apps to the face, he's gonna be my Classics Groove.

If I didn't already have Trenchmouth, I wouldn't hesitate to pick this guy up, but one version of this mold is enough for me, unless it's for homage purposes.
