I believe that's an alternate head that came with the bust.

I picked up FOC Sideswipe and Air Raid last night from a private supplier. Air Raid's bio is sooooo Fireflight's (he's distracted by the scenery)

I totally missed that one.... It must have been announced early by some source that it was Fireflight (which is why a lot of fansites and online stores called it that), so I never noticed it ending up being Air Raid. Since it will be Fireflight in Japan (apparently), maybe Hasbro have lost the name, because the Kreo combiner set has Fireflight called "Firestrike".
I better go fix up the checklist.... seems that no one else noticed either.

Yep, it comes with a spare head that you can swap out, one armoured and one not. I think he looks a bit like a pinhead with the smaller head on. I've also noticed other listings mentioning a second hand, I need to go have another look in his box, I don't think it's there.

I haven't seen any photos yet (I don't think) but I've heard that the japan release is much darker, pretty much an individual deco, so you could just about get away with having both and actually having the two different characters.

personally though, I don't feel that any of the aerialbots should have an alt mode as large or powerful as shockwave. doesn't seem right. I'll be skipping both of these for the moment. as nice as the deco is (on the Hasbro version).

Looking at the checklist, I found that I got Kickback wrong too... calling it Insecticon. Which I think was what it was called at BotCon last year, so maybe Hasbro had a couple preliminary names that didn't make it to packaging.

Found a Prime Ironhide Commander thanks to adds.

About to rip into him!

Stepper and the new Artfire.

Artfire and Stepper. Stepper is a repaint of Jazz, Artfire is a hybrid mould combining parts from both Inferno and Grapple, then repainted. Both come with Targetmaster weapon-partners (see review threads for more info :))
