Front Paged and Credited.

Decent enough looking in alt mode, but the robot mode head really kills this mold for me.

It looks nice, but I'll pass. I'm just picking up Cliffjumper for the All Spark Deluxes.

Well, it doesn't look bad, and I love the mold, so I'm sure I'll pick it up when I find it.

OOOOOooooo....me LIKEY! :grin:

Even though it is a simple repaint, I like the color AND the name. Me thinks I should pick up that game just to see some of the cool characters I've been missing out on.

This is a tad better looking then the original Dreadwing but im not a fan of the drone movie toys ( their heads look horrible to me).

Ugh. The color scheme is a bit better, but I'm still SO not a fan of this mold. Forget the drone head -- his crotch could use some serious remolding.

The Skywarp bio wasn't enough so they had to make a Skywarp-ish redeco.
Not that I'm complaining or anything, the ONLY reason I didn't get Dreadwing is his awful blue so I'm probably getting Overcast because repainting Voyager Scream is getting old.

I liked the mig alt mode..., the robot mode was fun except for those scrawny legs... i got to say tho, i like the new paint deco on it. will add to the growing drone army of decepticons

i like the new color scheme... but yeah, i wish they really fixed the legs... they look so scrawny...

hmm...surprisingly the color scheme appeals to me. might be the sleeper in the Allspark series.

Cool, but I was hoping for an Autobot repaint of all the Decepticon drones - and vice versa.
Re: New Allspark Power Figure: Overcast (441835)

My issues with Dreadwing is this:

1. His knees are bent the wrong way.
2. That damn ugly lens-head.
3. No hands.
4. His bulky under-carriage.
5. His bulky upper-body.

However, this guy is not a total loss. He's actually kind of fun to mess with. And this is so close to a Skywarp, it's creepy. Replace the yellow with purple, and PRESTO! Skywarp. But what kills that is his friggin head! And his goofy legs and lack of hands. The under-carriage I can live with. Man, what a shame.

I still HOPE that we will get a Voyager Skaywarp repaint of Starscream. If not, I may have to ask someone here on this message board to make me one.

I may get this one, despite his "issues". I like the color scheme on him. :) Damn, and here I thought I was finished.

Every time we get new pics of something from this Allspark line I like it less and less. I think I might pass on all of them.

Looks slick! I like. But.. eeeh... I'm tired of the movie line. I'm aching for the toonier cartoon toys. More my style.

Posted by Autobot032 on November 5th, 2007 @ 11:38am CST
I like Dreadwing. He's...gawky and awkward and has a cool vehicle mode.

I don't like Overcast. The colors are ugly, and this is one mold (no matter how much I like it) that shouldn't be recolored and re-released.

Well, now we know why the Movie line will be able to carry itself until next Summer. With all of the repaints, a sprinkling here and there of a new figure, etc...and it'll be just enough momentum to whore the molds through Winter and Spring.

If molds could catch a disease...these would've caught something terminal.

Hmm, I'm not sure if that will be enough to hold me over. Since June I've been in "hyper-spend" mode and now I'm in withdrawal with the lack of activity. Searching for MP Starscream is the only thing keeping me sane.

Wow, I though I had seen everything from the Allspark line. I have Dreadwing right now, and this repaint Overcast looks better. Nice paint job. :D I wonder what other figures are hiding back there right now.

Oh believe me, I know exactly how you feel. If it wasn't for the Masterpiece figures (DVD Prime, Masterpiece Starscream, Masterpiece Megatron) I'd be going downright insane right now.

There was such a rush, such a "Gotta catch 'em all!" mentality that we didn't think about the aftermath.

It's nothing life changing or anything like that, but it is irritating and boring.

Fortunately for us, Incinerator, Landmine and (I can't think of his name right now) the Cadillac Escalade figure are coming between January-March. Maybe, just maybe, we might get lucky enough to see a Voyager Bonecrusher (I doubt it, but it wouldn't kill Hasbro.)

Since those new figures will definitely be shortpacked, I have a feeling we'll be back to the hunt, quite soon.

(After that...yeah, it's really, really, really going to suck hardcore.)

Fortunately, Summer will be here before we know it, and Classics/Universe 2.0 along with it. :D

Posted by Sgt.Schnitzel on November 5th, 2007 @ 4:10pm CST
This is alot of positive reception. I wasn't expecting this at all for such a lousy mold. The jet mode is good but the robot mode is a joke.

The colours just don't do it for me and the transparent yellow reminds me of spongebob for some reason.

If theres one existing mold that deserves a repaint its definately dropkick.

It would of been neat to see Dreadwing repainted according to the TF-game. There he was grey with white and dark grey stripes which looked real nice. Sort of like US Urban camoflauge.

Ill post a screenshot when ill have the game reinstalled.

I don't understand that at all. That 'is' how he was painted.

He does convert nicely to SkyWarp though with some mods and paint.

I think I'll be passing this guy up though. One DreadWing was more then enough.

Nooo, his base colour was painted grey in the video game but the toy's base colour is this light blue.

I can say the same thing about the impending Cliffjumper: yes, the red looks nice, but every BB needs not be repainted into Cliffjumper....

I like the Waspinator idea, MegaDave!
