Had a play with him last night. I actually like him a bit better than I thought I would. Him being a remould of Streetwise makes perfect sense but I thought it may have been cool if he was a remould of the upcoming Swindle instead given his beefy new alt-mode in the comics. While certainly not the most stellar looking Prowl in robot mode in my collection, the porportions and poseability are good and they got the colour scheme and head sculpt just right :)

Oh, and my dear lord Primus - they included a comic where the character the toy is based on actually appears prominently! :eek: Would be nice to see more than that, rather than all these included comics where the character does not even make an appearance.

Very nice, probably better than Streetwise. Paint apps are spot on and the head is spot on, better looking than Universe Prowl from what I've seen. I will get Smokescreen and hopefully a Bluestreak from Dead End if they make it.
