Of the 30-odd BW toys that represent the characters from the Emmy award winning show, all of them have been repainted at least once, or are a repaint themselves...
Except Quickstrike.
What's that BotCon? You've missed one? But he'd be perfect to give a terrible new color scheme and charge through the nose for!
Verno, for the 'Keep Quickstrike Pure!' initiative!
Ok?
You mean like Actionmaster Thundercracker Terrible? I'd buy that.Quote:

Man, Fun-Pub should totally hire me. At least then they can stop complaining about how hard it is to think up all those decos they have to do every year. :rolleyes:
Quite a few of the BW molds are gone. Either lost due to...well, loss, factory closing, lack of maintenance, or are in the middle of the ocean (feel free to fish for them)
Nice. I once saw a black humvee with hot pink interiors drive by me... on the front windscreen was text that read "Combat Barbie" ;)Quote:

No, no, no. We must keep him from being repainted at all costs!
The original Rattrap mould is lost (that's why they've only reissued Transmetal Rattrap) :(Quote:

I don't think they should have done the first 10th anniversary recolours, They should have just released Transmutate by itself. I bought the Telemocha Blackarachnia but that is because I didn't have the original at the time. New moulds I would support wth my wallet, we are well overdue so more Beast Wars love, Give me MP Dinobot please along with his offsider Rattrap:). I'm not holding my breath in case people are wondering or hoping in Valks case:D
When will they repaint BW Quickstrike?
Never.
I don't remember much in the way of specifics, but it was a fair number of the molds.Quote:

Obviously we can look at molds re-issued since and know they're fine (eg the Armada and Universe recolours/remolds).
Other than that, who knows?
Verno go crazy?... :p
Unless the repaint were to be a completely different character? - No, that figure needs to remain in the glorious state that he is in. ;):cool:
@Cat: NNNNNNNNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!! :(:(:(:(:(:(:(

What have I done...
Should have let sleeping dogs lie:p:DQuote:

If you give me more Henkei BW figures, you can repaint Quickstrike in as many hideous versions as you like.
Deal?
Reminds me of Squeezeplay. That's pretty cool!Quote:
