Pictures of Skullgrin, Thunderwing, Wincharger, PCC Dinobots and more

[griffin]

At least official Hasbro pics are likely to be properly transformed this time (unlike the Chinese presentation).

Skullgrin is a disappointment - the concept artwork Hasbro showed us at BotCon had a very pretender-looking robot head, which made it obvious who it was. Now it could be anyone.

Cliffjumper isn't exciting me much either, as it isn't even a character in the game. The mould isn't much fun either, and the robot mod pic shows how deformed it looks with that backpack.

I love the look of Thunderwing though, despite the shiny prototype colouring. The robot mode has a lot of kibble though, but the jet mode looks nice.

Windcharger and Jazz looks nice too.

Tracks should have the proper hood flames, not a reworking of the yellow/red flame deco. Pity about the robot chest being so big an square (probably couldn't be avoided) - the original was so sleek.

Mindset and Fallback are interesting redecos, but the colours are off from the homages they are meant to be.

The Dinobot combiner is hideous.... Construticons are almost as ugly, but vehicles look nice.

Brimstone redeco - meh...

Looks like an expensive few months for me around the beginning of the year.

Cliffjumper is in the game, just the DS versions

Yep, I can agree there.

Windcharger, Jazz, and Tracks (my fav) are all must-buys.

Same here.

I'm so happy these pics confirm the final figs looks so much better than those earlier pics we had, where I lost a lot of hope from the Jazz figure, but in better res and close up looks pretty good.

Tracks (Properly transformed) and Windcharger are so awesome I can't even put it in words... I don't even know if I can wait for the Takara versions.

While I love that jazz, the robot mode is brilliant, the alt mode - from that angled pic looks like a squished bumblebee design- But I think its just the angle of the shot.

im surprised no one has said anything about Tracks' tiny little wings...

[Hursticon]

I think Track's flames are a play on the fact that he has a 'Turbo' - Japanese Nissian Silvia? alt mode now (like Drift's alt mode, a Japanese drift-car, being a play on his name), as opposed to the Ford Stingray he once was.

I don't mind the flames actually, I reckon they look pretty cool, a modern take that doesn't detract as much as say... changing the flames to lightning?.

As for the little wings?, meh, they had to be there but the size doesn't bother me though.

Loving the fugliness of the Dino combiner, will likely be my only 5 pack purchase.

Theres a good mix of products coming in a few months time, no need to guess what figures will fly off the shelves, and which ones will warm them...

- Clifjumper looks nice. Good head sculpt. Hope the red comes out a bit darker though.

- Skullgrin Looks like they have sucked the colour out of Darkmount, cept the red, like a bad photoshop job. Head is interesting though. I don't know if I like it.

- Thunderwing looks alright. Bit of a backpack on him. Almost looks like he will have Silverbolt Syndrome where his robot mode will be folded up underneath the jet. But the jet looks like it will break up into more pieces than Silverbolts

- I think both Steamhammer and Grimstone both look nice on their own. The drones look meh. I would get them if they were sold in 2 packs, but they would have to be on serious discount for me to get the 5 pack. (anyone who just wants the drones msg me!)

- Windcharger looks great. Hope the colours come out good or similar to the photos....they wont though....sigh....hears to hoping for at least Classics Cliffjumper red.

- Brimstone repaint looks alright. Interesting. Tempting too even though I have the blue one. Wonder what his name is though

- Fallback looks good. I missed the mould the first time round. I think I might grab this one instead. It looks a lot nicer than the first.

- Mindset too. I know the mould has its faults but I love the look of it. The big hulking menace with missile shoulders....awesome.
And is it just me or does Mindset look like a Soviet Union version of the Hailstorm?

damn I was really hoping for a manterror redeco of the Brimstone fig
