[...] Vehicon is Car Vehicon‘s robot mode with an entire new vehicle shell. Yeah, it looks like it’s just a car [...]

Back in my day we had repaints of the jets! And they were new characters! And we were happy for it.

Wasn’t really going to army build with these guys(was just hoping to find ONE, wanted two), but I had to go and joke to my wife about if I finally gave in and bought one off eBay, I’d find multiples the next day.

So, I bid $5 higher than the starting price on one last Friday. 30 minutes later I found 2 at retail at 2 different Targets. And I still won the auction(came to about $30 after shipping).

Now I just need to decide on how many Jet versions to go with(I currently have 4 Japanese versions pre-ordered thanks to that scene in Project: Breakdown with Starscream in formation with 4 of ‘em).

This is a fantastic toy. Absolutely awesome. Totally sweet alt mode, great transformation, awesome robot mode.

I’m seriously tempted to armybuild.

This is a pretty sweet figure. Glad I decided to get it instead of Hot Shot when I found Starscream and Knock Out yesterday! (Sorry, Willis, but I’m not big enough of a Hot Shot fan, and I could only spend so much.)

I thought Animated Ultra Magnus had an impressive leg-folding scheme, but this one definitely tops that! Definitely gonna pick up more when I have the chance!

I can see where the Batmobile comparisons come in, but to me, it looks like a 21st century update of “The Car”, which works for me, even though that movie’s probably on the obscure side these days.

Is it a plus that it also resembles the Batmobile? I smell a kitbash or at least a custom job on this one in the future..

I lived through the Great Smash Blade He-Man Epidemic of 2003; I can live through this. Not sure if I’ll survive the slow death of GI Joe toys through no-movie-drought, though.

You are super! I will email you when I’m not in an airport bathroom stall.

SUCCESS on the repaint two-pack front! I’ve purchased one! I made sure to get one that doesn’t have a derp-eyed Silas! If you would like to purchase it from me, send me an e-mail and we can discuss it! I’m not sure if this comment… forum… thing shows you the e-mail addresses people enter or not, I’ve never seen it from the admin side. So just in case it doesn’t, you can reach me at “adekii@gmail.com”
