This just in! TFCC has announced that they've reached an agreement with Toys'R Us regarding two of their TFSS molds. Coming late January/early Febuary keep your eyes peeled for an exclusive two pack Chromedome & Rewind repaint with a Cybertronian themed Valentines day card and Mini comic detailing the pairs trip to Hydrus Four. No Action Master bodies for these studs...just fried logic sensors resulting in a torrid love affair. 
*And if you believe any of this I also have some realestate near New Orleans I'd love to sell you.

I know right, if they're two loving consenting Transformers, who's to say fried logic sensors are to fault

"Why fried logic sensors?"
Two robots belonging to a mechanical species that doesn't require physical joining or spark melding to reproduce said species. Your right, they weren't created that way...its choice.
And set in a fictional universe to sell toys to an overwhelming market share of adolescent boys, granted this subject was introduced in a comic read mostly by nostalgic adults. Subject matter aside the whole thing seems like a writers attempt at making a contemporary political statement as opposed to a moral plot point of right versus wrong (good vs. evil, autobots vs. decepticons).
Don't overanalyze, it was intended as a poke at Mike, Jon, and the guys regarding the beating of a dead horse in the recent podcast. No political statement here, just S&G's. Emphasis on the "S".
Ejects head sculpt? Cool, like the camera/scanner mount. Won't be picking up this mold on the secondary market...don't like the alt mode.

Yup. If Transformers were only allowed to go on about right/wrong and good/evil I would probably stop reading. I appreciate the character development.

Via the Transformers Collectors’ Club Twitter page this morning, we were treated to an “80s Rewind:” an image of the Rewind figure, in addition to a picture of TFSS 2.0 Rewind alongside G1 Ramhorn and Steeljaw. Take a look at the images below and click on over to the Energon Pub to share what you think. Rewind will be part of the upcoming Transformers Collectors' Club's Subscription Service 2.0 and will be arriving to subscribers later this year.

It looks good except for the black plastic and gold paint being inverted on his chest. Is there a reason why the chest's cassette hole spots (I don't know what else to call them) are black instead of gold?

So are we to assume this Rewind is going to be one of the subscription figures?

I merged the new topic with an existing topic and updated the title of the news story to reflect that this is a TFSS 2.0 figure from the Club.

They can't remold more than one part on the figure, so with head being new, they couldn't remold the chest and so had to make do with it this way.

In an attempt to better resemble the chest design of G1 Rewind rather than those of G1 Rumble/Frenzy, probably:Seibertron wrote:It looks good except for the black plastic and gold paint being inverted on his chest.

So, we still taking bets on who the mystery repaint of this will be? I'm guessing Rosanna, since the camera could also be interpreted as a head-mic, and if you count SG Ravage as repurposable into Glit, she's the only one of the Kiss Players cassette trio who hasn't yet gotten any sort of second toy.

Yeah, it's a little bit better in being different from Frumbly, but not really more accurate since there was no way to get any new diagonal details on it. Not saying FunPub didn't do their best here, just that it'd be interesting to see Reprolabels take a crack at it.Sabrblade wrote:In an attempt to better resemble the chest design of G1 Rewind rather than those of G1 Rumble/Frenzy, probably:Seibertron wrote:It looks good except for the black plastic and gold paint being inverted on his chest.

For me, the Club making this be an alternate universe version of the IDW G1 character, instead of the main universe version of IDW G1 character, helps to get around the discrepencies between the comic design and the toy design.Bumblevivisector wrote:Yeah, it's a little bit better in being different from Frumbly, but not really more accurate since there was no way to get any new diagonal details on it.

Honestly, at this point, I expecting either the commonly-speculated Eject or the enigmatic Solarbot.Bumblevivisector wrote:So, we still taking bets on who the mystery repaint of this will be?

If it's all clear yellow with just some other detail like the ehobby cassette, sign me up! He could even hold El Duque's AOE Prime Sword

I like the mold and own United Ravage and Frenzy, but this seems kind'a stupid because Rewind and Eject did not have pile drivers. I think the pile driver gimmick on the mold works very well, but it is not a good fit for Blaster's little dudes.
