Hear me out:I'm not a huge Stormbringer Bludgeon fan or anything, but I do appreciate that they went so different from the baseline release. If I'm going to buy a same-character redeco of someone I already have, I would much rather have something like this than just a slightly improved paint job.
The retail version is the Pretender-focused versionI just feel that version of Bludgeon was a bit dialled-in and yet another "unwanted" (or "not really what most of us where asking for") to a more popular figure, which bumps up the price. I would have really liked a more Pretender-focused version myself.
for the turbo nerds who care, at least one person on twitter is mad over ruckus's deco because the deco on his arms are based on the photo from the tfwiki where someone put the stickers that were meant to be on the g1 toy's waist on the arms instead
lmao
i sure do hope hasbro fired whoever was responsible for the deco out of a cannon, this transgression CANNOT stand
To be fair, but the new toy's waist is too small for that detail to begin with.
But double lol for Locoman's quick image replace on the wiki

Though, in the wiki's defense, the pics used were originally taken from Seibertron. We're all shaking our heads in frustration over the user who used those images.
Sixo to the rescue!I don't think I'll ever cease to be amused over the Circular Reporting type mistakes. Though you really would think something like a toy deco would have enough time for more research (as opposed to say a comic book colorist rushing to figure out how to color Relatively Obscure Character #28).
I really like that Ruckus.
Yeah, I'm really not sure where his complaint is, in that we already got Tarn, Cyberverse Perfect Decpecticons, and IDW Bludgeon (in his popular colors and popular face design). And anything "closer" to his original Pretender desgin would require a new mold, which would be beyond the budget for this sort of release.The retail version is the Pretender-focused version
After all these years, Classics Jetfire will no longer feel so alone.If anything, the new headsculpt indicates this was NOT a "dialed in" redeco, but something that someone on Hasbro wanted to make. Between Bludgeon, Fractured Friends Orion Pax and (to a degree) Megatron shows somebody has read Stormbringer recently and we're getting some toys from that inspiration.

I figured it being a reused mold at all, instead of a new mold, was what he was calling lazy, not understanding at all that it was always going to be the same mold as before and never a new mold.I thought it was obvivious. He wants a version colored specifically like the Prtender Shell, and not some mix.
