Whilst I prefer the original decos of these figures, since I have neither my hope is that the Buzzworthy line will end up in discount stores eventually...

Whilst I generally much prefer transparent/translucent windows in alt-modes, I think that this Kup really works for me just because the painted windows make him look like the original toy/animation model, and that tickles the nostalgia glands nicely.

Amazing how Studio Series is now not the screen accurate line.

Even more screen accurate than the last screen accurate!
Yeah, sucks a bit.

The new kup is a much more cohesive vehicle mode. The SS86's vehicle is just outright ugly.
I'm very tempted. Except this would make the fifth "perfectly fine" kup I'd own. (Generations, TR, Legends, SS86)
As tired as I am of the ER Cliffjumper mold, I'd be extremely tempted if two things were different- that blue paint was gone, and the grey robot parts were a bit darker.

The most significant change to me is that the eyes are painted. The original one looks dead because of the black eyes - unless lit from behind really well. This looks more like Kup.

I feel Kup is a yes. Cliffjumper is a maybe, like if he goes on sale somewhere.

Could go Kup as one off because it does look good, but what worries me is how many other recent film figures are going to get redone like this. Springer is more obvious, but I can see them doing Blurr and Magnus too.
We were wondering why some movie figures had appeared in other lines, like Cyclonus and Galvatron. Maybe they're all going to appear in all lines with slightly different colours.

I actually stuck a peice of paper inside my SS Kup's windshield as soon as I got it to achieve this look.
It always looked wrong to me (as well as the head of course).

Y'all are talking me into buying a toy I do not need.
Please stop it immediately!

And not forgetting there is of course also the rumoured Studio Series '86 Arcee, which is already assumed to be nothing more than a repaint of Earthrise Arcee. Which means her inevitable Buzzworthy repaint will be... what? The Headmaster version of the mold? Not unlikely, really, given how things are going so far... |

The headmaster version I think would be heavily desired, as it had a fairly limited release combined with the fact that it's a significantly better toy.

That was the problem. And one Kup with no Cliffjumper. Case is 3 x Kup
2 x Cliffjumper
3 x Bumblebee I'd have had a Cliffjumper and Kup, I know Burns would be up for a pair which woul leave me with a Kup and 3 x BB Oh for evenly packed cases! |

The list is worth a quick rundown with some commentary on what was and wasn't known about Target: Buzzworthy Legacy Deluxe Silverstreak Seen this, knew it as Target Buzzworthy legacy Multipack (Gold Bug, Ransack, Toy Scorponok, Paralyzer) Much rumoured, especially the "contains Goldbug" bit I would suggest the Ransack is the G1 version and a Legacy Kickback repaint/retool tfwiki.net/wiki/Ransack_(G1)Paralyzer is a white Botcon exclusive repaint of Waspinator tfwiki.net/wiki/Paralyzer This too had been much rumoured. This set is probably a buy as soon as you see it on RK as it's predecessor has proved difficult to obtain here. Buzzworthy Legacy Deluxe Toy deco Terrorsaur Toy Deco Terrorsaur isn't that far removed from show Deco? But red for Target so..... Is there a Lazorbeak anywhere? Today's image drop from ID Toys - see Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/indemandtoys/posts/3093498287560735 - has the Buzzworthy BB Deluxe w2 in it. My hope grows that they will come out here |

I find myself wishing that the SS86 Kup was the one that was cartoon accurate, instead of just to the left of cartoon accurate, while this version was comic/toy accurate.
