Walmart Exclusive Toxitron Boxart is a Neon Overload

Groovy!

The Powers should have decided not making Toxitron's wheels purple....other than that it will be awesome when he hit's stores!

Once I get mine, I'll cut out the box and laminate it to hang on my wall.

Somewhere SG Thundercracker is really upset right now.

And I agree about the purple tires, they completely ruin the vibe. If I do get the figure, those are getting painted black immediately.

As for G2 Grimlock, he better have his "Big Grim" shoulder tat .

Whatever the reason, it doesn't work for him. Yes, I know he has a lot of purple and neon green parts anyway, but for some reason the tires are an eyesore for me. If the wheels had been purple and the tires black, that would've been fine. This way he looks like a psychedelic clown car, and not in a good way like Crosscut.

Totally agree, man they can do some absolute art on the packages. Great work!

You're not alone.
The red tires on X-Cut are weird, but the purple tires on Toxitron works perfectly. All black wheels would look too "normal" on him and may even become "invisible". In purple, they POP.

Maybe some Reprolabels or a quick custom paintjob will fix that.

is there a mothership connection

I like the purple tires as well

Had this rig belonged to the Joker then the purple wheels would be acceptable but it ain't the Joker's rig. They should have been black or dark gray just like the Toxitron's that came before. Hell this person thought so too...'nuff said!
