Great colour scheme, based on his Sunbow colours, second only to Cloud Rodimus.
Think I will spring for this one!

Huh. Yeah I mean okay I guess it's a Sunbow accurate one, but it's not a hugely different scheme. That's an odd move! (If it was a Starscream I could understand, but are there that many Springer fans not satisfied with the accuracy of the first one?) EDIT: I see from scrolling up that the answer to the above question is "Andy"  |

Actually talking about cartoon accuracy I am shocked that Generations Astrotrain never got a Sunbow recolour in the US especially given how every other mold got recoloured to death. I loved the Japanese release of that!

Astrotrain was a classics release....
I think just he and Voyager Megatron from that line haven't received a US Repaint

I can sort of understand Megatron as I guess a small-looking gun is a hard sell, but Astrotrain was a great figure! All I can think of is that maybe the figure is too expensive for the price point now? |

Astrotrain has had a Hasbro repaint in those colours in the Decepticon Specialists 3 pack but that was a Hasbro Asia exclusive (and not Henkei from Takara Tomy as BBTS and others claim!)

EDIT: I see from scrolling up that the answer to the above question is "Andy" My guess is that Takara are trying to put movie characters on the shelves in the anniversary year. Even if it isn't the anniversary year in Japan. MP Hot Rod, Magnus reissued. Gen Magnus just out. Galvatron, Blurr and Scourge due. |

Such a very pretty Mary Sue. Not for me - apart from his MTMTE appearances, I can't stand Drift - but a nice looking toy.

It's a straight recolour of Drift with Blurr's pistols.
I want it.

I think Blurr's doors were remolded for the guns. So it's a combination of drift/blurr.

Thinking on it, this'll be a repaint of the Deadpool version that the TFCC did a couple of years back, right?

The Blackarachnia is fantastic til you get to the big transparent boobs. Which is double bad as it means the spider mode has boobs hanging off its head instead of fangs! What are you doing, Takara?!??!

Triple bad as her fangs actually made up her stomach.
So for the big boobs hanging off her spider face, she now has no robot stomach.
