That Mixmaster looks pretty bad ... The 1st installment is better by a mile. :cool:

Hoist is a must for me! He will be Classics Hoist.

Shame. I really wanted Hoist, and while Mixmaster looks alright ....
The need to import puts me off both.

If I can't get it locally I'll get it online. Will buy the 2-pack just for Hoist alone.

(looking at Hoist) Now THAT is how you do a recolour! :)

Although Mixmaster isn't that bad in my opinion, now if only they do the other Constructicons in G1 colours....or maybe ROTF Devastator recolour?? I wonder what that would look like?

I will need to see these in person to judge them. In alt modes they will look great, the robot modes are an acquired taste, with the movie aesthetic and g1 homage colors, this kind of treatment is suited better to the Animated toys. But I see they have changed the head on mixmaster which might help.

Any word on this coming out in Australia?

I don't care for Mixmaster so I am willing to go halves with someone.

Oh great, another $80 2 pack which only has one toy I really want. :mad:

And that Mixmaster head looks goofy, like some sort of wierd robot teddy bear face.

Hoist looks okay but Mixmaster looks dreadful.

I've never been a fan of movie toys in G1 colours (nor G1 toys in movie colours, 'cept G1 reissue Protect Ironhide, but that's mostly because those are actually his Diaclone colours)

lol he does too and on top of that, he has this big goofy smile! :D

Seriously, nobody at Hasbro can tell that it looks crap? Kind of reminds me of Pinkymus prime as in 'What were they thinking?'

I don't mind Mixmasters head. Those eyes and expression give him a mad scientist look which is fitting.

I guess I'm alone with the Mixy repaint love. My favorite RotF Voyager repainted is an excuse to have a dupe. Only time will tell if the other Constructicons get the same treatment (highly likely). Also his face is loveable. (9_6). Looks a bit like an ewok actually.

Thinking about it, the Mixmaster two pack will make it very difficult.

1. Ebay would cost a lot due to shipping costs - More than half for an unwanted toy

2. TrU gets it locally and will likely be sold for some ridiculous amount and its not worth it since more than half of that is for an unwanted toy.

A loose - loose scenario

Yep, I wasn'texagerating when I said $80 2 pack. :(

Ah you nailed it! I was subconciously thinking ewok, but couldn't find the word. Combined with those long arms I think he is the Decepticon Ewok of Hugs!!!!! :p

I do want one these for both of them, for a standin for Classics Mix

It can be why he's not in Classics Devastator, he's become a mortar cannon artillery encampment for it!... Now if I could only find that Devastator for a good price

Like Hoist, not keen on Mixmaster. Hope we can get Hoist without having to do the TRU 2-pack deal, if not then pass.
Wish they'd do Movie1 Mudflap as Grapple and make it a Grapple and Hoist 2-pack instead...:(

Update - at this time, this pack is not likely to see a release in Australia, so if you want to make sure you don't miss out on this pack, it is best to import it.
