Who's that figure dude, do you know? and who is Windsweeper?

That's DOTM Air Raid from Wave 5. Which is kind of confusing as there's already been a Japanese DOTM Air Raid.

Windsweeper's this guy: http://www.ntfa.net/universe/english...ar=Windsweeper and here: http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Windsweeper

Ah ok, wasn't the Takara figure a different mold though? - And a repaint at that?

Indeed, hence the potential confusion about two completely different MechTech Deluxe Air Raids. Although amusingly on the back of his packaging, the Japanese version is at one point referred to as Air Laid. (The Transformers equivalent of the Mile High Club, perhaps. ) The US version's MechTech weapon looks sweet. Plus it's one of the few that are actually 100% appropriate for vehicle mode.

Yep, totally agree with you there and I hope it's a continuing trend with the Deluxe figures from that wave onward.

I'd love it if this was recoloured as Windsweeper:

The head fin makes me think "Skybyte" repaint.

Although when I first read your post I thought you said "Waspinator". I think it was the bright green and yellow of the toy in the picture that made me read it wrong.

I'd love it if MechTech weapons were better integrated from now on, like on Air Raid (and Megatron before that)

Good joke, but more likely due to the R and L being a combination of the two in the japanese alphabet.

I do like that joke though, I think we should make it canon

Maybe thats why the G1 Autobots were jealous of the fliers.......

Generations Sky Shadow looks awesome! Love the red and black colour scheme and that head remold. I'm a bit disappointed in the DOTM Soundwave toys I mean they look ok but nothing special, but knowing me I'll still get them.
