I didn't want Silverbolt and couldn't find Darkwing but I do like the mold so I'll be getting Skyjack. The others are rubbish however.

I don't blame them for repaints. Powerglide was demanded loudly and often by the fandom after the disappointing first one. The Onslaught mold was never repaint in the U.S. up till now, and Skyjack, it's FREAKING SKYJACK. I'm always happy to see some G2 love. I hope the box he comes in actually says "Universe Generation 2 Series" on it.

 

Let see more of that... how about repainting Cybertron Thundercracker as G2 Hooligan? Or repainting Energon Prowl as G2 Double Clutch. I want to see more brightly colored G2 homages.

Heavens no. Classics Jetfire as Hooligan. Muuuuuuch better. I would be so sad if Cybertron Thundercracker came out as Hooligan.

:agree (Now if Hasbro wants to retool Cyb. Thundercracker to have less of a gangly gun-arm.. I might be cool with it.)

Hardhead is meant to be this guy, right?

 

I DO hope that, what appears to be a terrible tan colour for his head and legs etc, turns out to be GREY as it is meant to be.

 

Why though, pray tell, does his shield have "Decepticon-Busters" shield? Looks a bit silly to me.

 

Personally I would have thought that the previous "Universe Countdown" mold would have worked better.

 

Regardless, I hope the tan is replaced with GREY, Haz-blo!

 

I also hope I can remove his head to make a headmaster partner too.

It's based on the IDW design of Hardhead, which turned into a six wheeled armored vehicle just like Universe Onslaught... and wasn't a Headmaster.

 

Also, the original Hardhead's leg color was a tannish grey. Almost the same shade as fellow Headmaster Chromedome's feet.

Oh, HECK yes! Man, that Jetfire mold rocked, so it would make an awesome Hooligan. I'd be all over that. I hope they keep up the repaints paying homage to those guys. I need a Space Case as well!

as much as I'd love to have it, I just can't justify buying that powerglide, after I finally broke down and bought the universe version two weeks ago
