QUOTE(BB Shockwave @ Jul 11 2012, 11:44 AM)  I bet the big rotor blades will be quite easy to feel through the bag. Same as I could easily find Lego minifigs that had spears or fishing rods. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/icon-hotrod.gif) Spinister (why does everyone misspell that? Spinster means... something very-very different. And hilarious) will most likely be a Vortex repaint. And I am OK with that, as with Sunstorm. The other two, though... utter trash. I am amazed to see the same people who otherwise call out Hasbro on repaints and being lazy now swooning all over this horribly Jazz-helmeted Waspinator with diver fin wings... In a building toy, repurposing parts is the entire point. You don't feel compelled to wait around for the perfect head for your new guy when Waspy's already got a Jazz head. You just build, and you find solutions. We need just enough specialized parts to get by, but not more than that. -------------------- |

So, I'll be honest I have a hard time seeing from that pic... Is that supposed to be G1 or BW Skorpy?
ZacWilliam, and does the other side of that display show any Autobots? -------------------- Ever wonder about the speed of Turbofoxes?

It's possible that Scorponok is a... pre-paint? Predeco? We caught brief glimpses of a mechanical scorpion Kre-O set at both Toy Fair and BotCon 2012. There was also a Soundwave set shown on the same slide, but, likewise, not called out in any way.

 Regular or unleaded? Group: Citizen Posts: 5,945 Joined: 28-September 03 Member No.: 3,634 |
Pretty disappointed by all the reused parts. Knocked these down from "must have" to "not bothered".

Well, at least now people can stop worrying about the left-out members of the 5-man combiner teams.
Oh, that doesn't make any sense without the photos Walky took, the links to which he has yet to add to the thread. Anyway, they're here: http://twitpic.com/photos/Shortpacked This post has been edited by shellspark: Jul 11 2012, 04:41 PM --------------------    KITTY WARS! |

Not entirely in the proper places, no. But I'd assume that would be because they couldn't get any closer with the limitations of the standard Kreon buck.
