So then those helicopters we had seen (that people were inexplicably calling Sandstorm and Whirl, despite there being plainly visible Decepticon symbols on them) were Swindle and Vortex, respectively.

nice, i want a set, wether i have to resort to import depends on whether i get them or not though

I just realized something. For the current Universe 2.0 line, we're gonna have THREE Onslaughts:

 

Legends redeco of Cyb CD Red Alert

 

Ultra new mold

 

Deluxe redeco (maybe) of Energon Barricade

 

How :fail tastic can that be? :khaaan Poor Onslaught is gonna have an identity crisis

Forget the Combaticons, why doesn't that Brawn have green wheels!? Maybe there's hope after all!

 

Emerje

<_<

 

 

 

 

THIS DOESN'T MAKE US EVEN, GOD!!!!!!

so then there's is no more hope of the limbs being sold at target under the movie line?

 

WTF?!

Seems sorta lazy. 2 copters and 2 tanks do not Bruticus make. At least they could have sculpted two new modes, namely a jeep and a shuttle.

As Combaticons, this absolutely sucks balls. However, I look at this as an opportunity to get a few more Decepticons to my ranks and I can hope that I can get a decent representation of Vortex. He is the only one I need to make a modern Cobaticon team. I have Armada Bludgeon substituting for Brawl, I switched the head on Classics Astrotran to make a semi-decent Blast-Off, I have the RID Onlsaught and finally BT Swindle. If they just paint either copter to be a passable Vortex, it will be worth it.

(Having a Psyche moment) I. . .I. . .predict. . .uh. . .a . . .wait for it. . .almost there. . . repaint of the energon superion maximus as our favorite afraid of heights flyboy Silverbolt and his friends. And if this goes to walmart then the next one will go to target, or vice versa---unless Walmart decides they want to keep these amazing figures for themselves(This concludes our Psyche moment. . .for the moment)

 

I passed over these stellar examples of plastic crack the first time around---they were just too small. However, I've gotten everything else classics and universe related except for the botcon stuff and the legends guys, so I'll probably get these too.

they have the names from G1 but it is the same vehicles from energon, i wasn't born in the 80's but even i know that the 2 tanks, 2 helicopters didn't have the same color scheme and weapons! :pfx
