    Wow!!

    Just goes to show how the skill of taking a good picture matters so much...

    Those are the first pic of Tracks that do some justice... even swayed me to not minding the Hasbro paint job.


    This just makes me more impatient

    Where'd you find this toy?!? (o_O) Interesting to see that the chest insignia is a tampograph instead of a rub sign as shown in promotional pics. So does he have a rub sign somewhere else? I've been assuming that was kinda the point of the "Reveal the Shield" line...

    I'd think that he stuck a sticker over the rubsign.

    I saw Deceptic's Tracks IRL today and there's no rub sign - t'was a tampo. Moving right along, the actual toy looks pretty kewl, but the wingalings look a bit too short for my liking. I know some people don't like the Chopper flames, but I personally don't mind them at all.

    One interesting thing to note was that Track's hand gun looks like Wheeljack's missile launcher. I realised that this mould was created with the dual intention of making it into Tracks and Wheeljack when 5FDP spun his lower legs around and went, "Look it's Wheeljack!" I know this isn't the first time we've seen HasTak design a toy with the intention of retooling/repaint it for another toy/character during the conceptual stage (as opposed to doing it as an afterthought as has usually been the practice before) - but it's interesting to see it becoming a more widespread practice.

    We've seen pictures of an unpainted Wheeljack already - the legs are indeed spun around, he's got a body kit, a new head, and he uses the Tracks shoulder cannons as spanners (barrel as handle, the 3mm clip as the spanner head).
    I'm really just here for the free food and open bar.

    I'm starting to think the mould has more Wheeljack than Tracks! Either way i think they both look good. I just did a quick Wheeljack digibash from some larger E-hobby photos - here's hoping we see the real deco soon!

    nice. i like the legs spun around this way but not sure if i like the head. i definitely dislike the weapons/tools he's holding.
