From the TF Wiki:

* Overkill ("Special Edition" Deluxe, 2008)
o Accessories: Missile launcher, missile, tail-flail

Originally created for the "Asian market", Classics Grimlock was once again used as the base to make the 2008 Universe version of Overkill. Unlike the customization class version above, this toy is actually cast in white and aqua plastics. He retains all of his previous gimmicks. Like the other "Special Edition" figures, Overkill comes in a black book box-style packaging with monochrome art.

This toy will be available for purchase in the US via Hasbro Toy Shop.

(T_T) So, I'm not alone with my Animated love. <3<3

Those pics of Overkill reminds me of Classics Ultra Magnus colour scheme. Can start a colour theme.

I am liking the look of Megatron.
I hope the other Premiums come out too. Hopefully Cliffjumper will have some changes done to him.

Aw, no cassette mode? :p

I missed Grimlock, so Overkill will be a good substitute, especially since the repaint now makes it distinctly not Grimlock so it won't clash with Animated!Grimlock.

Walky claims on his blog that these were created specifically for Australia. One should consider the fact that he's friends with the Hasbro guy who designed the decos for these figures, and well, Hasbro Australia were the first to reveal these so far we're the only country to confirm that they will be available at retail.

Maybe it is to make up for the lack of other things. Like a "we're sorry, have this instead"

So this is gonna be the 3rd distinctively different paintjob for the Mirage mould? (Mirage, Fracture & Drag Strip)

Hmmmmm, They're gotten 4 so far from the Prime mould (OP, White, Black & Botcon) so that means there may be one more re-use for the Mirage mould in the future... (Arcee? Maybe not :rolleyes:)

Might not be so hard to get after all:
