SDCC Images: RotF Gears and Fallen Repaint

Well, he looks a bit better in those pics. Not so much as... "cheesy"... no seriously. The previous pics literally made him look like he was made out of cheese.

Fallen loves Cheetos.

The Fallen...on fire...hm. Can anyone say "shelfwarmer?" =D

If they had maybe cast the figure in smokey gray and orange translucent plastic instead of that LOOKITME orange...then it would have been soooo much prettier.

Someone needs to tell The Fallen that hunting season isn't here yet. The blaze orange has to go.

well i like the repaint, even though it's a tade much, but oh well i'm a fallen fanatic since ww fallen

Ugh. Those repaints are awful. Just pure crap. I cannot stand that orangy...thing called The Fallen. The original outclasses it in every way imaginable. It sucks.

The only one that shows any promise is Hoist. He'd look nice in your Classics/Universe collection.

Masterpiece Skywarp? Pass. I love the mold, I love Seekers, but I just can't part with that much dough for essentially the same toy. $60.00 for a repaint? Nope. Pass.

I want to see more new figures like Leader Class Starscream. That thing is so totally t3h s3x.

Gears, no. Fallen....looks nice in that case. So if I get him, I'll keep in packaged....on clearance.

I guess that confirms that Skywarp's 'con emblems are the other way up to Walmart Starscream's. I guess I'll have to put a slightly larger sticker version over the tampos on both to get the two to match. Hopefully Walmart will see their way clear to shipping some of these to their UK arm. We never got Starscream over here but we have seen pretty much all of their exclusives in between times.

I've got a feeling that Gears will join Hoist and (Target?) Jazz as stand in figures on a few people's Classics shelves. I'd like some clearer pictures of him but I'll provisionally pick him up with that purpose in mind.

Uh think i just threw up in my mouth a little. Who the hell thought that was a good idea? I know hasbro loves repaints just for the sake of repaints but that just horrid. And here i thought the figure couldnt get any uglier.

I am totally all over that Skywarp!

How clever-there are gears on Gears.

Yuck.

Hmmm Gears doesnt look too bad in bot mode, but his alt mode isnt that good, and at first the Fallen on fire i thought he was suppose to have more red and than orange, after seeing the Fallen is a complete failure!!! I think the person who painted him is color-blind..

$59.99?!!!!!

That's TWICE as expensive as the MP Starscream was! Why would they give such a ridiculous price for the same figure!?!

Uh...no. Masterpiece Starscream was also $60.00

He was never $30.00 except on clearance.

Technically, I think retail on Wal-Marp MP Starscream was $48.87.

But yea, it's basically a $10 increase.

I stand corrected, you were right.

And it's still not doubled. $10.00 isn't that bad.

Hmm, it was so long ago when I got my MP Screamer. I must've forgotten its price.

Still, I wonder where I got the $30 bucks idea from?

I'll buy gears, I like that mold. Glad I didn't wait for that Fallen repaint, it doesn't do it for me. I like the original better.

I don't do movie-line, but I'm glad Gears is getting some love in some form. The grumpy ol' sunnavabitch doesn't get too many releases.

Will pick up MP Skywarp for sure. I too, do not do movie figures anymore however, for some strange reason I like that ugly-ass Fallen on fire fig. I guess I just like black and orange. Dunno.
