TFA Pics of Sidecar/Samurai Prowl, Waspinator and Cybertron Red Alert repaint

Cybertron redalert?

WTF are hasbro thinking? As much as I like the cybertron look better, it totally does not fit into the animated line.

They should never had tried and shoe horned any other line into this one.

This one as perceptor? Guys, I seriously doubt it. Have you all gone blind or forgotten how animated perceptor looks like?

The only thinly veiled reason why this could be perceptor is if it's a cybertron mode - pre-earth version.

EDIT:

Ah you retards, it's universe countdown that cybertron mould is destined for. ;)

I'm pretty sure that the CD Red Alert repaint is destined for the Universe line post 09 movie...

Which fits with Universe Blaster's Marvel comic influenced bio:

"Working alongside his friend PERCEPTOR, AUTOBOT BLASTER has organized a series of resistance cells to fight against ever more orgainzed DECEPTICON attack squads"

That news item still says its a rumour. I remember a few months ago when images of Universe Whirl and Sandstorm appeared on those same sites only for those toys to finally come out as Swindle and Vortex. :rolleyes:

Still were universe toys though wern't they?

Yeah I don't think anyone was saying that the Red Alert repaint would be an Animated toy, although STL's first post is open to interpretation.

Samurai Prowl looks alright... I'm not a big fan of the blue nor the retooled "teched out" windscreen. :/ I'm also not fond of the whole Ninja = Samurai thing - but that's more of an issue with the Animated story, so I don't fault the toy for that. I'll probably get this toy.

I think I'll pass on Universe Countdown... I already have the Cybertron version. :)

If that toys comes out as Perceptor then I am all for it. However if it comes out as something idiotic like Countdown (as the rumor mentions) then forget it.

I don't think I'd get it as either TBH. :/

Aside from Botcon06 Megatron, I don't own any other release of this mold.

Its a stupid idea to release this as Countdown since he was a moon buggy not a big a$$ missile carrier. If they wanted to make the character of Countdown into this mold, at least they should have gone for the colors of his base rather than the Micromaster.

Except for Big Daddy all the Micromaster repaints have been poorly handled, or missed oppurtunities, so this is entirely inkeeping with previous releases.
