    The Punch face isn't painted too well (yellow just splashed on, covering the eyes and sides of the head). Hope that's more accurately done on the one I get.
    I've said before how I really like the blue, and I think Hasbro would be foolish not to do their own version of Punch/Counterpunch from this mould. I wouldn't be surprised if it wasn't already considered as a future redeco/remould when they first designed it to accomodate Sideswipe and Sunstreaker. (each time they preliminarily plan a toy, they often outline potential redecos, so that they can see if they need to build the alternative heads/parts for it, or to prioritise redeco fodder, like the Seeker mould)

    I'm looking forward to getting mine, and I don't give a toss if Hasbro do make their own, I'd probably buy it too as it might have a better head gimmick.

    I am not confident of Hasbro ever mass releasing this toy. The designers may have considered Punch/Counterpunch during the design process of the mold but I doubt that registers with the Hasbro marketing and administrative staff who are the ones who call the shots on what is a good idea and what isn't.

    Thrust is a more obvious release than P/CP but never mind we shall see.

    Really? A lot more new moulding went into thrust.

    +1! This is like a lucky egg, you'll only find out once you transformed it which is most likely packaged in alt mode like it's predecessors. I also do hope that there'd be more QC on this limited release as this is tagged as an exclusive anyways.

    As much as I hate modern Transformers number plates in general, this has to be the most retarded one so far.

    Is Punch that desperate to be shot in the head by Decepticons?

    Well, only those who know Punch and Counterpunch are the same person would recognise what it means. Everyone else, including the Decepticons, would just think it is a standard number-plate of random letters.
