Classicsverse Silverbolt: just a dog or a complete turd?

yeah the concept is rather bland, classics 2.0 toys are lazy in that they dont have much character design references from across the transformer series.

It seems as though the only figures that have electronics "that add to the TF" are Leader-sized ones (eg. Unicron). Ultra-sized down, there doesn't seem to be any purpose for electronics at all.

Just my 2 cents...

i would loved classics powerglide to have some sort of electronics , he could say some of his awesome phrases.

"and a way..we..go.."

[jaydisc]

As he is an Ultra, I strongly believe he will have electronics.

im not crazy about electronics in tfs

like orion said, i can make my own sounds

plus batteries weigh them down and theres the danger of leaking batteries and damaged electrical gimmicks if you drop the figure.

Silverbolt looks alright to me, but wheres Superion?

I was never crazy about G1 Silverbolt in either mode. I liked him because of his characterisation = fear of flying! The bot-box underneath (a la Sky Lynx) bugged me in what was meant to be a sleek, fast Concorde. The new one seems to be a great homage to my eyes.

Not a big fan of big TF's. To often I buy them and then feel buyers remorse as thier lack of detail or intresting transformation, make them little more than oversized and overpriced deluxes.

While Silverbolt is a good hommage, at ultra prciepoint I can't help but feel cheated by his simplicity. Although his colours are all wrong, I think I prefer Powerglide.

what could be worse is that they release a classics superion using the superion maximus model, and charge you the same price as an ultra size transformer , then two months later Takara announce they will do a Henkei classics Superion, then some months later some chinese factory makes a knock-off version of G1 superion.

[MV75]

Your logic is all backwards. They already have the KO g1 superion.
