Yes, he was. I can live with the dark red for Evil Stepper. I mean, you can't get any darker than black. I think Decepticon Purple would have been a better choice, but dark red I can live with. The the use of the name Ricochet - which is a retconned concept - doesn't sit especially well with me.Originally Posted by Pipesqueak
If any of these toys needed dark red, surely it was Motorm... er Optimus Prime.

I'm greatly relieved with this, as its a figure I can do without. I'm going to have to sell blood or a kidney to get the convention exclusive Megatron figure I suspect, which will cost me enough as it is.

saintly, i forgot this pic will be out and went ikea shopping yesterday. glad you've posted it up too
ok..i can forsee most people will be disappointed now. well, i may forgo the attendee figures at this moment but would still like to know how megatron will look like and which mould that will be used

I think it's more or less rumoured/confirmed(?) that they'll be using Galvatr... er.. Megatron mould from Energon. I like that mould, so I hope it's true.
Yuk it looks like a piece crap that came out of Hasbro's rear end.

I agree totally.

Something just hit me. The colour used _does_ actually make sense:
Stepper at Robot Kingdom
The claret colour of the BotCon toy lines up to the colour used on reissue Stepper's box. Okay, this might not make Ricochet into that bucket of awesome you were all hoping he would be, but I think the guys who conceived this toy _have_ put more thought into this figure than they're being given credit for.
Either way, I'd still like to get this figure. I love the concept of an Evil Stepper™!
