The Counterpunch head is really impressive. And Punch is certainly acceptable. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/icon-ironhide.gif)

I'm impressed he still has his little flippy hat!

Very nice. I'm looking forward to seeing that they do with the transformation... namely, how they're going to get the fists right in both modes.

Er, I dunno, it seems to be working fine for me. (The forums, on the other hand, always take forever to load...)

It's back up now.
I agree that Counterpunch is the stronger of the two--Punch's face doesn't have much in common with the original toy, without even the faceplate, and Counterpunch's crest might end up looking strange on the back of Punch's head. But, we'll see. This post has been edited by ChessPieceFace: Oct 24 2009, 09:54 AM -------------------- |

Yeah, it threw me off at first that Punch didn't have a faceplate, but I guess he has a mouth in the cartoons.

I like how Punch's face is like it was in Rebirth while Counterpunch's face is like it was in Head Masters.

Punch's face doesn't exactly match any previous portrayal. The original toy had eyes and a mouthplate, which Headmasters copied. Rebirth gave him goggles and a mouth. But the Timelines toy has eyes and a mouth. HA HA NO ONE IS HAPPY

I doubt they'll do anything with the fists. At most, the instructions will tell you to pop them off to reverse them. |

Maybe they can give him 2 right hands, so one in both modes the right hand is correct, and the other flipped? Of course they'd have to get more hands in the mold.... might have to make half of the toys all left handed too.... Never mind.

Maybe new fists like Energon Prime had, with the thumb near the middle so it looks right either way

Looks good, but I'm surprised the toy is still at this early a stage. Should be an extremely nice end product, though.

I rather have punch with a mouthplate, but this is fine.
