Looks like a retool of the Sideswipe/Sunstreaker mold will be released as Punch/Counterpunch but as a Club Exclusive.

This is a must have for me!

I'm surprised it took this long. The mould was crying out for the P/CP treatment. I wonder how they'll do the head?

Wouldn't surprise me if they made it a yellow car (that's punch), and the robot mode had blue highlights, (that's counterpunch).

If that happens I'll blame you for jinxing it :p

I'm pretty sure they said it would have a two-sided head.

So can we expect this to cost $100+ for essentially a $15 toy?

You betcha! (Or $75ish, anyway.) And since I'm one of the handful of people on this planet who doesn't already own the Universe Sunstreaker/Sideswipe/Red Alert mould, I just know I'm going to get sucked in by this one. :)

Yeah this is really good news, but the price may be prohibitive.

Not looking forward to the price, but at least it's a nice mould :D Can't say I am even remotely a fan of the previous exclusive's mould -_-;

Looking forward totally to the new head tho! :D

I've so far found it easy to pass on the collector club repaints, but this one sounds mighty interesting! (:

Nice Idea, but collector club prices tend to drive me away, it'd have to be pretty damn awesome!

Glad that the toy is getting made, sad and mad that it is going to be TFCC exclusive. :(

Tempting but costly.
