Most of the smily links come out like that?

I like the retro joke of this figure, but it's not enough to make me want it twice.

Nice though that Hasbro is jazzing up their repaints though, tobad they couldn't aply those ideas to something new though.

A red pickup truck with the windsheild on the chest?

Looks like we're getting our G1 Movie Ironhide after all!

This mold just doesn't suit being a Autobot, he's too mean looking.

When are we getting a Hoist repaint of Longarm and a Bludgeon repaint of Wreckage - I'd buy those, not Salvage though.

Not sure if Wreckage is the right mold for Bludgeon. Maybe Brawl/Devastator.

Give Wreckage a try.

For someone who has yet to get the mold, which looks best? Salvage or Dropkick?

Re: First Look at Transformers Movie Salvage In-Package (615160)

I'm sticking with DropKick. More details and a huge logo that I'm sure someones gonna copy in real life.

Salvage is nice, but realy outside of a decal on the door, he's just an embarased repaint.

Never really saw what was so special about this mold looks too big on top and too small near his legs

Yes he looks kibbley and top heavy but he actually balances really well due to his light weight and big feet.

He's a great deluxe, his transformation is really clever.

He is a must have if your into the movie line.

I've seen him in the local Wal-mart here in Cincinnati. I wouldn't have expected him out for several months.

I'm just having a hard time seeing it. Maybe if I can see a digi-bash.
