    Default New Protectobots?

    This came up on my Twitter feed thanks to Hursticon and I had to share!

    Original Tweet and original blog post



    More info to come?!?

    Sometimes this account posts really good customs, but this doesn't look like a custom to me.

    And I can't quite make out what toy Blades is...

    Me neither - is it Legion Airachnid? Oh - it's Deluxe ROTF Evac/Tailwhip.

    Looks like ROTF Evac/Blazemaster to me, which makes me really hope/believe this is fake

    Yep I think so

    Pretty uninspired redecos and scaling for the five of them, colour me uninterested

    Surely it's too elaborate and weird to fake - why bother?

    That is an interesting mix of Beast hunters and Classics toys. No idea who Blades is, too bad they cannot rejig the FoC Vortex mold. I hope it isn't Blazemaster (or whatever the TV chopper from the movie lines was called) as that was a terrible toy!

    I'm liking the Guard City red Hot Spot. Groove on the other hand, if that is the final product, looks like he drew the short straw

    Groove's vehicle mode is to scale! I kind of like that. And an Inferno coloured Grapple... I also like that.

    The decos on First Aid and Streetsmart aren't great, but do seem realistic for something Hasbro would do compared to what a fan would do.

    And if you can't use the name Streetwise, Streetsmart is a far better choice than Streetstar.
