Pre-orders from BBTS are out - Toyworld's third not-Headmaster, Swamper (http://www.bigbadtoystore.com/bbts/product.aspx?product=TOW10005&mode=retail&utm_source=Marketing&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=Marketing&utm_content=). Very surprised that they chose to go with an anatomically correct Alligator head.

I won't hotlink all the images, but here's one:

Seibertron's got a few alternate configurations for his robot mode: http://www.seibertron.com/energonpub/toy-world-h03-swamper-skullcruncher-p1569826.php.

Gator head, to me, is not long enough. But by golly the robot mode looks nice, and very G1 reminiscent.

I had a Hardbone (hehe :p), but sold it as I wasn't that impressed. but I'm all in for the FansProject headmasters because they are all kinds of awesome.

This one looks quite nice and that headmaster looks to have great levels of articlation for the size, but the overall aesthetic is one I'm not a huge fan of and the fact that FP, while their headmaters may be less articulated, make an effort to hide the face, means that I'll wait for FP's version.

The more I look at it, the more the small head and teal plastic (instead of dark-olive green) makes its alt mode remind me of Snaptrap (http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Snaptrap_(G1)).

Ohhh, I always wanted Skullcruncher when I was a kid, but never got one. I'm pretty keen, but I wish FP would update us on what they are offering, Toyworld are going to outpace them at this rate, and a complete set of generations style Headmasters is something I'd really like to have.

Speaking of which, when is a 3rd party going to announce a Pirranacon? All these Predacons and new Combaticons but no Seacon love.

When I first saw the Thumbnail pic on TFW that's who I thought it was.
