dont get me wrong, I love the G2 color schemes. Im still looking to trade (whats left) of my g1 bruticus for g2 version. and yes I am aware how yellow onslaught was, it just looked better on him then this.

The mold is pretty cool, and ts got gimmicks and accessories galore. Minicon activated shoulder mounted gun, that doubles as large blaster. Minicon Activated disc launcher. Lights and sounds, which was more common in older Voyagers, Interchangeable tools for his left hand. heck he 's even got battle platforms on his legs for the minicon to stand on.
Its a lot of punch for your buck.
Great mold, and great Galleries as always.

Movie Frenzy may have come before him, but he was later made one via a retcon.

I'm still recovering from my basement's flood from last weekend that took out a major portion of my MISB and MIB collection. Moved almost everything to a storage unit, bought a bunch of the Target RE branded Sterilite tubs they have on sale for $5.99 this week to reorganize my collection. Still doing cleanup 8 days later.
Inferno and Mudflap were completed galleries I finished back in May in case Erector was nominated the winner for HOF but since he wasn't, there wasn't a rush to get these pics up.
Probably going to get some older galleries that have been finished for a while posted first just to keep content going on Seibertron.com until I can get back in the groove of things.
Botcon 2011 Galvatron and Thundercracker are on my list to do very soon once I get back on my feet. Also going to do Cheetor and G2 Redux Ramjet as well as a slew of other related figures that need some love like G2 Starscream and G2 Ramjet.

Some will like that he isn't a firetruck per say and it's different, but way out of scale for what it is and the movieverse could have came up w/ an impressive firetruck mode instead of a repaint of a different line. Don't get me wrong, tight joints, stays together nicely.... perhaps I was just expecting too much.

That's not how the process works though. First of all, exclusives are (almost) always repaints, which Mudflap and Inferno are. Second, the deco is designed first, then a fitting name assigned. Fitting as in fits the deco and/or alt mode. The original character hardly plays a role in it unless the repaint is specifically meant as a homage to that character.
Little known fact is that Inferno is based on Movie Ratchet's proposed colors of red and white, kinda like the upcoming Specialist Ratchet. It has some influences from the G1 Micromaster Tote.

Thats why I said...perhaps I expected to much for something carrying the name of Inferno.
