Drift

[GoktimusPrime]

I didn't like drift at first but after a while I brought him and he's growing on me. He just seemed to perfect. I don't read the comics but I think that his changing sides is pArt of his flaw/ strengths. The questioning of his own beliefs and his chosen path. I'd like to read the in-depth story of why he changed sides and what lead him to this.
That's what I think would make his character more solid.

Others have made similar comments - but thus far we haven't really had much exploration into the history of why he switched sides. So far he kinda walks around like a "Born Again Autobot"... little wonder his former Decepticon comrades just wanna slap him.

Nothing worse then a born again autobot.

I personally don't really have an opinion on Drift...I mean I don't really
like or hate him...I'm indifferent...

The toy is pretty sweet...but I'm kinda surprised one was made for him
so soon...considering there are other "classic" G1 characters who haven't
had a toy in recent times...Wheeljack and Trailbreaker spring too mind...

not to mention Time Warrior. I think that's part of what irks some people about Drift - there's so much attention given to a character who was never part of the original G1 series when there are so many other G1 characters yet to be explored. And that's one thing that was cool about Last Stand of the Wreckers -- they used Hasbro's Overlord! I never thought Hasbro's Overlord would ever see the light of day in Transformers lore (ya know, beyond the toy's tech specs bio)

But one thing that is pretty cool about Drift getting a toy is that it's the first time in Transformers history that a Transformer character that originated from a comic book was made into a toy. The Transformers comics are littered with a lot of cool characters that were made for the comics but never had toys. First we got Drift, and we got StraxusDarkmount on the way... hopefully Hasbro will consider creating more comic characters like Impactor and many more!

Not to mention Mindset on the way as well (while Hailstorm was released first the mold was designed from the beginning to be Mindset)

You make a great point...and I think many fans would
love a Generations Impactor...I know I would.

Im all for new characters actually, and i think goktis poin og being the only one is a good one. my Transformers memory is very limited (I have trouble with the names) so Im justr after someone memorable. Ive only read is AHM appearance, so I have no feeling sother than show me more, for now.
