TFSS 2.0 Scout Class Rewind Revealed

Yeah, my bad. But I figure you're right, I'm betting Eject will be the "bonus" 7th figure.

kinda lame, I was expecting better, seeing as rewind for united frumble was a little too predictable. Wonder if he and TFSS chromedome are similiar in size Funpub did a great job with the color layout and head though

Cool, but I liked using RW and EJ with their FoC Blaster. I really like the mold though (Yeah yeah, I know they lambasted it on the Podcast and I still couldn't figure out why...) Although since they don't fit in his chest with the other three, This could still work in my favor.

Rewind as a tank though?

That would be pleasant indeed. Rewind does have a greater presence in the IDW comics (so much the "Did you know...?" template on TFWiki broke), so it makes sense for him to be revealed first.

My hope, but not my expectation.

Rewind broke the Wiki? Cool!

If you're counting shipping in that, *Maybe* FunPub used that for their reason to not run the voyager, although I thought Mammoth would've fit in the box used for Slipstream and Depth Charge, unless tis a weight issue. Far as tool costs go, they're getting one more head out of the run than last time, so Scout+Head=Voyager.

Now this is nice. Way better than the pizza/hockey puck currently on my shelf. Plus, I never did get around to getting Rumble and Frenzy in that mold so win/win.

yep,

Unless they did an Eject to go along with this Rewind, what would be the point? (Frankly, If they're going to make a modern version of Rewind, it'd have been humorous to see them make him a memory stick).

I wouldn't think so, since it costs Fun Pub as much for them to release a Scout as it does for them to release a Deluxe.

To go with Chromedome? Rewind's become enough of his own character to not need Eject, and he's Chromedome's significant other.

I would get the Chromedome connection except, this mode would not really Fit the Wheeljack retool with this retool (I think they would even be similar in size). Heck, Frankly, if they wanted to use some Frumble mode to remake into Eject they could have gone with the Masterpiece Frumble mode. I mean, money wise, these things individually costs as much as something Masterpiece anyway. That and the idea of someone who's been portrayed as being pretty much a living camcorder with little to no combat experience now being represented as a tank feels a bit OOC to me.

The MP is too recent for Fun Pub to use (Hasbro just released it not too long ago).

And, Fun Pub may not have permission to use MP molds.

Due to the sheer exclusivity of them.

I don't like the mold choice for the character either, but I don't see how choosing this mold would make Rewind need Eject to go with him.

Impossible.
