I love my wacky G1 recolours and will definitely be buying these for "Screech" (Crosscut in Mudflap colours.) What's everyone else's thought on these?

[jaydisc]

Woohoo! Not a Henkei release! My wallet can rest. Whew!

[Tetsuwan Convoy]

What's everyone else's thought on these?

"Meh" seems to fit nicely methinks.

Probably stems from not liking the 2 movie characters much.

[kup]

I think its meh.

Although I must admit that G1 Skids does look good in those colors. He has a much more cooler presence than the Movie toys which are more comedic in style.

My beaten wallet says thanks.

[Paulbot]

For some reason I can't explain I like them a lot and want to get them.

They seem so appropriate. The colours look good on the classic Skids toy. The Crosscut head! Skids was also my favourite Autobot Car toy as a kid.

Yeah, totally want these.

[Lordy]

I wonder if the Crosscut one comes with the scooter

[TheDirtyDigger]

These look cool. They can even go on my G1 shelves because of the mould.
If they're easy to obtain I'll get them.

With the sole exception of Protect Ironhide (and only because that's actually his Diaclone colours) I'm personally not interested in G1 toys w/ movie colours or movie toys w/ G1 colours (I'm probably the only person who even dislikes movie Jazz in G1 colours).

[STL]

I'm so over G1 toys. I'm all for Henkei Skids though and then the exclusive of it. :D

I dislike Movie Jazz in G1 colors too.

I'm going to get these. The black G1 Ironhide and green G1 Ratchet did nothing for me but I like these very much.

That's interesting. The green Ratchet did nothing for me but I was all over that black Ironhide - and of course, you can't get one without the other so now I have both (and I can't compell myself to sell the green Ratchet cos I don't want to break the set - that and I'm not sure if anyone would want to buy a green G1 Ratchet on its own :p)

I dislike Movie Jazz in any colours.

I'm one of the 'anyones' who just owns a green Ratchet and not a black Ironhide. I love green Ratchet - he'd be one of my top ten favourite Transformer toys.

[dirge]

Interesting. Another "get the coupon and mail away" thing?

[Zippo]

Love the set as well as the heads. Can't recall what head is the original and whats Crosscuts, but both look fantastic. Sadly I wont get..

[Robzy]

I probably won't get them, but they do look excellent!

The heads are the original heads of Skids & Crosscut. Basically, Skids is Skids & Mudflap is Crosscut.

[roller]

screech is okay

[SentinelPrime]

I pass. I dont think a henkei skids and mudlup would be any better either. Should just leave it for a movie thing with no crossover.

[GoktimusPrime]

Not just the heads - the chest/bonnet is also different between the Skids and Crosscut moulds. :)

[MV75]

Those are pretty cool. They look so diaclone to me though. :)

[Lord_Zed]

A clever repaint, but 1 G1 Skids is enough for me.


(I'm probably the only person who even dislikes movie Jazz in G1 colours).

Make that 2.:cool: Movies toys tend to loose credibility in G1 colours. While G1 toys in movie colours loose their cartoon appeal.

[Sky Shadow]

I'm looking at getting myself a Skids and Screech set ASAP. I've looked at BBTS, TFSource and Digital Toys' preorders. Is anyone aware of a better price than TFSource's $160.25US after shipping to Australia?

[SOUNDBLASTER]

I was all over that black Ironhide - and of course, you can't get one without the other so now I have both

I wanted that black van so much but prices were just OUCH...

So I painted one . :D:D

Now i just need some chrome :cool:

[loophole]

the interesting thing is that i see the exact same green coloured skids on the way to work almost every morning so if you want you could own the real thing without having to repaint it ;)
