    Default TFA Pics of Sidecar/Samurai Prowl, Waspinator and Cybertron Red Alert repaint

    http://www.seibertron.com/transforme...repaint/14743/

    Very cool. I love how buffed up Prowl looks. Looking forward to this.

    Waspinator is cool but I imagine rather simplistic. Reminds me of Swoop on first glance (transformation-wise) though I havne't really dwelled on it. (I hate spoiling a figure by trying to figure it out first)

    Cybertron Red Alert looks very much like Perceptor which I'd say is a sad choice as I'd have absolutely loved a Doubledealer out of the mold. I guess that's still possible though w/ lcz128 in the house. Perceptor would make sense though especially since he's expected to be in the next season of Animated.

    I don't really collect Animated but this toy is kind of tempting. The Prowl mold is rather well made and I like the whole Idea of transformable armor (I have been spoiled by City Commander )

    Looks like Prowl has had a bit of retooling. Light piping eyes for one. Is the nose of the bike pointy-er than original? I can't be bothered TFing my Prowl, and he's standing next to the keyboard as I type.

    Sad but true....

    The Armour looks cool! A little bulkier than I originally thought, but still itsa good!

    Waspy does look a little simple, but the overall effect works. Damn you animated. Make me buy them all......

    The pictures taken were not of the best shot but will suffice.

    Prowl - will get if only for the variant armor. So Hasbro has worked out, they cant use the blue paint on this guy so they went for clear blue plastic instead.... somebody at Hasbro sure loves blue.

    Waspinator, like the colors scheme and the clear plastic wings and its deco. must have for me. Even if his transformation is simplistic, Wish they'd make a Silverbolt - Winged wolf character in Animated, always liked the mold in Beast wars, would love to see their take on it at animated style.

    Red Alert. Hmmm never had the mold we'll see.

    It's the full size version of the legend-sized Perceptor from the first round of classics

    Hmm I wonder if we could get a full size version of Classics Trypticon then, I'd like that over RID Bruticus?

    Samurai Prowl looks better and better in every pic. Waspy looks a little simple, but meh, if it talks like BW Waspy then I must own it.

    The CD Red Alert repaint screams Perceptor to me, (I was hoping to get a Doubledealer or better yet, a Stalker repaint) but some on Seibertron have mentioned Countdown, if it ends up being Countdown I wont be surprised in the least.

    Countdown's an interesting idea, but since Universe Blaster's tech spec mentioned Perceptor I hope it's him instead. Although the fact Perceptor already has a toy that's a repaint of a Cybertron Defence Red Alert might work against his chances.

    I love the Prowl with Super and Strike Parts!

    Waspinator looks cool except the elongated forearms (is that how you spell it?) and claws look unfinished. Like the designer ran out of time and said

    "Stuff it, it's Friday and the copier chick is going to the bar downstairs...that'll do Waspy, that'll do."
    MEGATRON Without PRIME is like Bacon without Eggs.
