So is it Universe or ROTF???

<confused> :confused: My previous comments were based on the assumption that it's a Universe toy

The toy being Universe doesn't make it any less movie nor automatically places it in Classics. Universe is a 'catch all' line.

I must say I was a little dissapointed to see that it was less like the G1 character then we all hoped it would be. That being said, I may buy it anyway once I see better pictures of it. But c'mon, its a hovercraft, first one since G1 to my knowledge.

Sea Spray's box seems to be the same new gold style packaging as Battle Ops Bumblebee

But the new Bumblebee toy doesn't say it's part of ROTF either. It's just a generic Transformers line box.

There's been a couple. ;)

Really? What others would there be? (then again, I don't pay attention to anything passed Beast Wars :p)

Cybertron Shortround (and his repaint Storm Surge) who's very popular repaint fodder for custom Seaspray toys. Waterlog, a Mini-Con from Armada doesn't get as much repaint love (well he does, as a Mini-Con he's been repainted heaps of times by Hasbro/Takara but I don't see many custom Seaspray's based on that toy).

My problem with this toy, is to me it doesn't look like it would fit in on either my G1 Universe shelf or my ROTF shelf.

As already stated the head doesn't look G1, but aside from the hands it doesn't look much like it would fit in that well with ROTF either, it's transformation looks pretty straight forward and it's pretty blocky looking too. I prefer the more alien asthetics for my ROTF toys, the same way I like nice blocky bots for my G1 shelf.

Too crazy for Boys Town, too much of a boy for Crazy Town. The child was an outcast.

Meh. Need more gooder pics.

Either way, I'm not especially psyched. Hasbro's efforts above Deluxe rarely appeal to me.

theres another picture of seaspray on payload's new packaging, not very good quality tho
