(looking at Hoist) Now THAT is how you do a recolour!
Although Mixmaster isn't that bad in my opinion, now if only they do the other Constructicons in G1 colours....or maybe ROTF Devastator recolour?? I wonder what that would look like?
I will need to see these in person to judge them. In alt modes they will look great, the robot modes are an acquired taste, with the movie aesthetic and g1 homage colors, this kind of treatment is suited better to the Animated toys. But I see they have changed the head on mixmaster which might help.
Any word on this coming out in Australia?
I don't care for Mixmaster so I am willing to go halves with someone.
Oh great, another $80 2 pack which only has one toy I really want.
And that Mixmaster head looks goofy, like some sort of wierd robot teddy bear face.
Hoist looks okay but Mixmaster looks dreadful.
I've never been a fan of movie toys in G1 colours (nor G1 toys in movie colours, 'cept G1 reissue Protect Ironhide, but that's mostly because those are actually his Diaclone colours)
I don't mind Mixmasters head. Those eyes and expression give him a mad scientist look which is fitting.
HATRED FOR JAMES VAN DER BEEK RISING!

I guess I'm alone with the Mixy repaint love. My favorite RotF Voyager repainted is an excuse to have a dupe. Only time will tell if the other Constructicons get the same treatment (highly likely). Also his face is loveable. (9_6). Looks a bit like an ewok actually.
