it's a decently contrasting colour that makes the red pop off more. It's fine. Ummmmmm, don't think so.

Track's one appearance in G2 indicates that manny galin is on our side, and G2 is all that matters so there.

But it has been brought to my attention by Luigi Mario that it should not be Manny Galin who recieves the credit for Correct Tracks, but the actual colorist of the issue in question, Sarra Mossoff. No, I do not take criticisms, why?

The prominent Autobot badge is on the yellow flame, which has been changed from the animation accurate red, so Sarra agrees that you need yellow to make the red pop.

The chest. Not the flame. The chest does not have a hidious yellow square that matches nothing. Miss Sarra is correct.

He doesn't have the yellow square in car mode anyway?
I can't remember.

On a side note, I really need Kingdom Cyclonus repainted as that cybertronian empire decepticon, there.

As he sees himself as perfection all the time - I wonder what Tracks himself thinks of the yellow square? It must be a tasteful fashion statement when he does or doesnt wear it either way.
Perhaps it actually belonged to the other 'perfect' Autobot car Sunstreaker and Tracks got a bit jealous so cut out Sunnys insignia and wears it to spite him.

But a yellow body would be too much, dah-ling, so a simple statement colour will suffice.

£55!!! Um, er.
They look ok, but I already have 3 of that Mirage mould. I don't need a 4th.

The panel remoulding and the way the transformation has been altered slightly to extend the back end of the car makes Mirage look much better than Siege in alt mode, but I'm not sure this is worth the hassle when I prefer the Henkei mould anyway. For £55 I'd have to sell the Grimlock, which makes this a load of faff for a meh toy. The robot mode shoulders are better without the big wings.
I'm still surprising myself with how I'm just not buying into much of the line this year. This time last year that would have been an instabuy for me.

I definitely feel more sold on this than Siege, probably because I know what I'm getting going in and the subtle remoulding on the front wings amuses me. Like, of everything you could have done to try and make him more 'Earthen' that's what they went for.
Rear wings look tidier too, so l just wish he'd had the toy-based head really.

Post by Pinwig on May 11, 2021 18:47:39 GMT
Yes, the head would have tipped it for me. When you compare this and Siege side by side there are a lot of remoulding changes in the outer panels of the car; it's definitely much better.

What's the fun if Cruella D'Ville isn't trying to turn him into a matching purse?

Has anyone stopped to question why we have an F1 race car and Velociraptor toy twin pack?
If the Velociraptor can ride the racing car then maybe it makes sense scientifically ....
