Crankcase with remolded hands has hit the market.

[Calabask]

Reported this on TFW2005 this afternoon and RodimalToyota reported this on Seibertron a bit later with a secondary confirmation. A new Crankcase variant is out there now. Rather than clipped figners, or the unclipped blade finger, the remolded hand kind is now out. The lot number for these is 10851, and unlike previously, the Paramount logo in now on the right hand side of the back of the card. Here's the picture Rodimal took, which is far clearer than the one I was able to capture. http://www.seibertron.com/images/toys/uploads/1307375275_7dee78b4.jpg

 

Edit: Looking at the time stamps on Seibertron, looks like Rodimal posted his alert on this before I got mine up on TFW2005.

Still waiting on a reason for these changes. You are just as likely to poke your eye out on the pincers on the back. <_<
