More goodness...

TAKARA:
TF Prime FE Arcee and DotM deluxe Leadfoot:







Love Arcee and while the backpack is a little bit kibbly, it's still a pretty fantastic avatar of the show. Deluxe Leadfoot is quite complex, I'm talking RotF Mixmaster here. Ok, maybe not quite, but this is complex for a deluxe. Also, he isn't as ugly as the pictures suggest.

Man I love the alt modes of the techy DOTM Wreckers. Leadfoot has the nicest bot mode out of all 3 too imo. Gut formers FTW!

Yeah. It's a pity Roadbuster isn't in mechtech alt mode. Ruins the asthetic continuity. But yes gut formers rules - Animated Bulkhead & Ratchet.

Gee if I was like ten or so I would have been so gaga all over the shoes of design awesomeness ...
Now in my mid 30s I will really look like a stupid doofus walking around with transformers shoes.

No way! I reckon you'd like 9 flavours of AWESOME!!

Also, he isn't as ugly as the pictures suggest.

Yeah, he does look nicer IRL than in photos (not utterly fantastic, but nice enough). A part of me wishes he had a more original Mech Tech weapon instead of a recolour of Ratchet's.

Not to mention wheeled-janglies-formers. (burn outs must really hurt XO)

I agree. I don't mind the regular car mode of DLX Roadbuster; but it's the inconsistency that's annoying. Either all the DLX Wreckers should have attack vehicle modes or they should all have regular vehicle modes. And then they did a similar thing with the Legions Class Wreckers too! Roadbuster and Leadfoot are in their attack modes and Top Spin is in his regular car mode! I don't see why they made both Legion and Deluxe Leadfoots in their attack modes -- that means I now have Roadbuster and Top Spin in both their vehicle forms, but I have no Leadfoot toy in regular car form. Inconsistency FTL.
