I got Darkwind & Countdown yesterday. Suprisingly, I was looking forward to getting Darkwind, but got Countdown mostly because it was on sale (picture on back didn't excite me much) and didn't want to drive back if I later found I wanted it. But when I got home, I was quite disappointed by Darkwind (looks like a clown suit imo) and Countdown impressed me! I didn't get a chance to research either before I bought them, so Countdown's split-apart rocket was pretty sweet upon discovery =oP The colour scheme of Darkwind was so eww to me, quite 'kiddy' looking compared to the prototype photo on the back. Also, his alt mode looks nice from the top, but the underside basically looks like his bot mode minus head, and the huge hole at the back where his head is, err, "hidden". Such a shame really, cause I like his alt mode from the top, but that's it... But that's just my thoughts... =oP
