If you don’t rotate the doors on the arms (leave them pointed down and back from his hand), it shouldn’t be in the way of the “giant gun” set-up.

Arrrrgh. I’ve been looking and looking for this Red Alert. Apparently there is a forcefield in effect around my city for 40 miles, because Red Alerts have been spotted just outside that distance for weeks, but nothing has shown up around here. >:(

I already have the Henkei one, but Red Alert is my favorite character, so of course I have to get him. And stealth force Inferno.

Okay, I’m a huge whore for the Classics/Generations/Whatevs Seeker mold, so when I saw we were getting more Seeker love with the coneheads I did a little shuffle on the toy aisle at work. Then looked around self-consciously. Then did it again.

I may have even “Wooo!”‘d.

Oh gaw-, that Dinobot mold. I love Dinobot with a blazing passion, but I was pretty happy when they finally released a new mold instead of recoloring the old one. Everytime someone switched the one on my DVD shelf to dino mode I had to switch it back because the way it looked bothered me so much.

Does Red Alert finally have his own instructions, or is he the latest victim of Sunstructions for Sideswipes?

Sideswipe’s techspec bio claim of having a rocket pack is finally actually true, and you’re complaining?

I agree, as Sunstreaker is the only version of the mold I actually cared about it for. Not to complain about an extra accessory but I have no use for the engines included with the other guys.

The funny things is Henkei Alert could mount the engine in robot mode if he wanted yet Generations Red Alert can’t due to the different placements of the light bar.

Regarding the engine thing – I don’t know why Hasbro keeps including that Sunstreaker-specific accessory for every version of this mold they release.

The mediocreness is probably why these figures get so many remolds: easier to rework a fairly generic toy than a super recognisable one.

Beast Machines Deluxe Jetstorm was redecoed quite a few times, and it was an awesome mould.

Still, the general idea is sound.
