Transformers: Fall of Cybertron Kickback Image

That makes three named Insecticons we know who are in the game. Kickback, Chop Shop, and Hardshell.

If they do, he''l probably be named "Sharpshot".

Kickback at least is getting a toy.

He was only seen during an exclusive demo shown at the Fall of Cybertron booth at BotCon 2012.

...

Ground rules when I say most things:
1) I am aware of every figure that has been officially announced for release both here and in Asia. I am even aware of some upcoming releases that have yet to be officially announced. I may not like them, but I recognize their existence.
2) I was at Botcon, and any convention I'm unable to make it to I pour through all galleries/news stories related to said conventions, thus allowing me to continue to justify point 1)

This means that unless I'm glaringly wrong on something toy-related, please stop pointing out such obvious things to me that do not have any impact on my statements. For example, the fact that we're getting a Kickback release does not change my desire to see all three Insecticons released by Hasbro. Indeed the fact that it exists, only adds emphasis to my statement. We know of one, but not all three; hence my statement is unchanged. Hasbro had better make toys of all three of them.

Thank You

not sure on...the first one... but Bombshell looks okay.

Aaaaaweeesooomeeee!!! I'm glad I bought a PS3 one and a half year ago.

Bombshell looks cool but I really dont like those stupid pointed shoulder pads on Kickback. Ill buy these figures for kicks, but Fansproject really did a better job from a G1 standpoint.

Maybe it was, but it's not how I interpreted it. I fully support the education of the masses, but using me as the soapbox felt to me like you were attempting to correct me, something which you're rather infamous for.

FOC Bombshell and Fansproject Bombshell look rather similar.

Bloody hell, now I need to see Sharp Shot! I thought the whole chop shop thing was cleared up?
