    (looking at Hoist) Now THAT is how you do a recolour!

    Although Mixmaster isn't that bad in my opinion, now if only they do the other Constructicons in G1 colours....or maybe ROTF Devastator recolour?? I wonder what that would look like?

    I will need to see these in person to judge them. In alt modes they will look great, the robot modes are an acquired taste, with the movie aesthetic and g1 homage colors, this kind of treatment is suited better to the Animated toys. But I see they have changed the head on mixmaster which might help.

    Any word on this coming out in Australia?

    I don't care for Mixmaster so I am willing to go halves with someone.

    Oh great, another $80 2 pack which only has one toy I really want.

    And that Mixmaster head looks goofy, like some sort of wierd robot teddy bear face.

    Hoist looks okay but Mixmaster looks dreadful.

    I've never been a fan of movie toys in G1 colours (nor G1 toys in movie colours, 'cept G1 reissue Protect Ironhide, but that's mostly because those are actually his Diaclone colours)

    lol he does too and on top of that, he has this big goofy smile!

    Seriously, nobody at Hasbro can tell that it looks crap? Kind of reminds me of Pinkymus prime as in 'What were they thinking?'

    I don't mind Mixmasters head. Those eyes and expression give him a mad scientist look which is fitting.
