I cannot wait to get Rotorstorm! Late G1 is sorely under-represented in CHUG and it's just fantastic to see more love for characters from the later years of Gen 1.
Okay, having a new head would have been preferable, but I'm perfectly happy to get Rotorstorm with Spinister's head sculpt too. After all, CHUG Pyro/Spark is a straight up repaint of Universe Inferno without any new head, but in echoing Deonasis' thoughts, a new head would have been nice but the existing figure is still much appreciated anyway. I feel the same about Rotorstorm. If we can accept Pyro with an Inferno head then I'm sure we can get over Rotorstorm with a Spinister head. At least the body and alt mode match up, unlike CW Blast Off 1.0.
P.S.: That BotCon 2010 review thread reminded me that there are a few more characters that I needed to tick off on the How much of G1 would you like to see as CHUG? thread. I've also marked all BotCon exclusives in red, and looking at all the Late G1 CHUGs I can see that Overlord is the only Late G1 character that's already been done as CHUG. And only by a technicality since that is a Hasbro G1 list (if we included Takara G1 then Overlord would be Middle G1, meaning that the current number of non-convention exclusive Late G1 CHUGs = 0). But yes, let's complain about a head sculpt on what will be the FIRST unequivocally non-con exclusive Late G1 CHUG toy.
