Just opened and transformed Hoist. Just like Grapple, pretty much an updated articulated version of the G1 toy - but just don't assume you know how the arms go in vehicle mode!

I REALLY hope so. This mould is so good, if we don't get Starscream's buds it'll be a crime. But then weren't we thinking the two pack would be Ramjet and Dirge to go with the Thrust we heard about?

Ah, I see what you mean now! I was reading that as "The Tracks Retool of Earthrise Wheeljack" rather than "The Wheeljack retooled from Tracks"

I hope this is them to 'cos then you'll sell me your Siege Skywarp! The gaping sucking chest wound in my collection!!! Seriously though, they must do them, and the other Cone-heads. It's easy money for them! EASY MONEY! Other repaints to! Seekers sell, it's a certainty of Transformers.

Indeed. First sight of a Skywarp and this Siege charlatan is off. The Rainmakers and Hotlink will be more than enough of that mould for me.

So, IS Sunstreaker a Wheeljack repaint/retool? 'Cos, as lovely as Earthrise Wheeljack is, he's... I dunno... a whisp smaller generally than Sideswipe. Less wide, less bulky, a teeny tiny bit shorter. The mold works brilliantly as Wheeljack. Not sure it'd work for Sunstreaker, or Tracks, when compared to the Siege deluxes.

Popped open Ironworks yesterday. FAB. Phil needs more.
Rationing the new deluxes, not opened the other yet

RFC's news update made a good point about this - if it was Coneheads it wouldn't need to be called Earthmode because they weren't out in Siege, but Earthmode matches the name used for the other characters out so far who've been used in both lines.

Could they... Could they be like on the bridge of the Ark, having a scrap, and they look up and see the earth rising, see? SEE? RISING from behind the moon, and and and they think, shit, we need Earth modes now, quick!

Doesn't matter where it's set! Earthmode Starscream is called Earthmode Starscream and he looks like an Earthmode jet!
