I would have preferred a Classics Dreadwind to a Dreadwing, but he still looks decent.
Wasn't that just a G2 rename, just because/trademark reasons not a seperate character?Quote:

(And Classics Darkwing would be about three times his size.) :)Quote:

Hasbro are really spoiling us this year. I'm smitten with this mold for some reason... I really hope it comes out in a nice green and blue scheme.
Looking at Dreadwing's face I imagine he has a more brutish version of Jamie Oliver's accent. >.>
It has to dude, it simply HAS to! :eek:Quote:
