what is kinda strange is the last meister i picked up from wallmart rang thou as camshaft

crap repaints that are not thought through and are minimal effort make me cry.

 

hasbro have lost faith in this line ad are just trying to make money out of it now

 

(yeah i know they did that before but at least they made new heads)

skipping this one - no head remold - tired of repaints in alts - have the mold.....

Rumor is that until Hasbro gave up on Porsche, it WAS going to be Camshaft.

 

 

Since Mazda were more hands on in the development of that  RX they may not have let the name pass mind you.

Booooooring, another repaint I won't buy.  Hasbro is getting lazy with these things...colour me UNIMPRESSED!

The really funny thing about some of these complaints is the contradition to what people are constanly Starscreaming for. OMFG the colours are to bland!!! :eek  :eek  :eek  :eek Seriously give me an effing break. People want TFs that aren't playschool colours but reflect realistic alt molds.

 

Well this IMO is as realistic as it gets. Realistic cars don't normally have flashy colours and racing decos unless of course your into street tuners. This is exactly how Decepticharge should have been done. One colour without all the crappy street graffiti they put on him. Same goes for Skids for that matter. It is a shame about Decepticharge thoug. Cool mold as a DEcepticon but the decals absolutely ruin it.

 

I hope the "Bland" trend stays true to any other future releases. Diguises afterall aren't supposed to draw attention.

*cough*

GHEY

I thank you

Wow, repaint time already? Whatever happened to remolding? Sure, the sirens are gone and he's got another spoiler, but usually they try to make the robot head like the original counterpart. This head doesn't look like G1 Camshaft's head at all.

 

 

Having said that, I am, of course going to get this one . And I'm glad to get some more alt news.

Camshaft's an actual G1 character? :eek  :eek  :eek

 

Shows what I know. :redface

 

Still like him as Bluestreak though. :thumb

Actually considering Camshaft was an old RX-7 originally, the RX-8 mold would be more than perfect for him.  There's an idea for a custom in there somewhere...

Well, that's it. I'm no longer interested in being a completist on this line - he looks like an Alt Prowl that has bee partially repainted - in the early stages, when one would put a base coat of grey down.

 

I'll just stick to one of each mold.

 

Way to f-ing go, Hasbro.

Alt mode looks nice. The bot mode has lots of kitbash/repaint potential.
