    Default More FAB packaging pics. (and spoilers?)

    The Electro Whip Jolt FAB toy in packaging shows three others from the first assortment on the bottom - Megatron, Bumblebee (with really skinny legs), and Optimus. All four are new moulds, and Jolt is a new character.

    From this original source:
    http://www.the-arker.com/bbs2/dispbb...&star=1&page=1

    The Bio from the back:

    Around the world, The Autobots battle to destroy the secret forces of the Decepticons. Little do they know an even deeper[?] threat is about to arise...

    Jolt makes a point of getting into trouble. He is chaotic and impulsive, always out for next big adventure. If there is danger about, he is sure to find the way into the middle of it. Luckily, he;s got the fighting skills to get himself out of binds he gets himself into. When he's got his electro whips in his hands, he's an almost unstoppable whirlwind of crackling energy.
    That first paragraph sounds like another hint at the plot of the movie - a powerful threat that makes the Autobot Decepticon conflict on earth seem insignificant. Maybe having the forces unite against it perhaps...

    So is Jolt in the movie? It says he transforms into a Chevy Volt. I originally though he was one of the "twins" until I realised I had made the noob mistake of confusing my car models as the "twins" are a Beat and a Trax. But if he was some extra character (as in not used in the movie) why would they go to all the hassle of giving him a proper car model for an alt mode?

    Any thoughts?

    That Bumblebee looks like its the same mold from the previous line. Nicer paintjob though.

    Jolt is looking ok. Not really a fan of the vehicle but would be interesting to see that weapon of his in the movie.

    If they are trying to squeeze in 40 TFs characters in TF2, Jolt could well be in the movie. I don't think there were any moulds from the first movie FABs that wasn't from the movie.

    Thats another concern of mine. If they are going to squeeze 40 characters in then what is the character development going to be like?
