Seriously, the figures look sweet, but those heads have to go.

That's why I haven't bothered myself in obtaining Universe Hotshot, he only has a Minicon THAT DOES NOTHING and instead I bought Movie Breakaway and Fracture, unfortunately I missed Crankcase and I haven't found him again.
Talking about weapons, Cyclonus would be useless if Nightstick though about taking a vacation, I can imagine him crying.
In conclusion, wow, Skids and Mudflap aren't that bad, and I like them.
Thank you Seibertron for the galleries.

Really great images.
I am always thinking whether to get them, but i have decided to get Human Alliance version.

That is all.

As for these, I prefer the HA versions over these... but the sad thing is that it looks like both of these guys have more pose potential and are better proportioned (except for the ape arms) than the upcoming Alternity BB for 1/5th the price. I hope I'm wrong though.

It's a variant. And I'd be very interested in finding out if there's a way to spot this variant.

Actually, I think he's mistransformed in the instructions, because I was able to transform my Mudflap to look like the gallery. (Thanks, Ryan.)

As far as I know, only Skids is getting an HA figure.

I really like the car and bot modes but feel repulsed every time I look at the faces! I have been trying to think of a way to repaint or re-MELT them to get them to look better but so far, nothing. So, does anybody know of any alternate heads that can be used on Skids and Mudflap? When I think of Autobots I think of the words "sleek & cool" not "reek & drool" so any surgical ideas would be appreciated!
thanks again for the new galleries

You can see the teeth if you look through the windshield or the side window. Once you see one that's got the painted teeth, it's easy to spot. The painted teeth version is the prominent one at stores in Chicago.

I'll be damned if I could figure out Mudflap's back in robot mode. The instructions weren't very clear and how I have it wasn't very stable. Perhaps check out the YouTube video reviews. Maybe one of the reviewers can shed some light on how Mudflap's back is supposed to be transformed.

Mudflap is going to be released with Simmons and Chromia later this year.

I think you have to fold up the winshield and hood like you have, then connect the tab at the back of the head to the hole on the back. I don't think it's any more stable, but it looks correct as far as I can tell.

Was that just announced at Comic-Con? Because this is the first time I'm hearing of it.

Looking at how he's transformed in the gallery, I actually prefer him in that way. The back kibble doesn't stick out as much.Seibertron wrote:Darth Bombshell wrote:Barrelass wrote:Question for anyone though, since I don't know where my instructions are right now.

Yes, that would be correct.
