That's two recycled G1 names!

Warpath is a tank, not an SUV! TANK NOT TRUKK!

The only one of these three I want is Storm Surge, since I don't have the Shortround mold yet. (I already own Cybertron Brushgard and Universe Strongarm.)

Hooray to them reusing the name of my favourite Targetmaster. They even reused the original personality.

Can't help but think that Crosshairs and Warpath's names would have made more sense if they'd been switched around; Warpath's alt-mode and colour scheme just scream "Crosshairs" to me. Neither of those molds really impressed me in the past, though, and sharing names with characters I like is hardly enough to make we want to track 'em down.

Storm Surge's colour scheme reminds me of Strike Down and Power Run from the Micromaster Metro Squad...always liked the white/black look on a hovercraft. He's definitely the sharpest out of the bunch, and the only one I'd really consider buying.

Does anyone have any mirrored images? I'm noit a member over there, and non-members cannot view those attached images.

here are images from Seibertron.com . I am not really impressed with recycling older molds like cybertron series though...

I agree (Warpath would even have a mounted cannon, if only in vehicle mode), and I think Seaspray would have been a very fitting name for Storm Surge.

Not bad colors, but I don't particularly like any of these molds. Glad they're laying claim to Warpath's name, though. Hated his cartoon personality, and I never really followed him in the comics, but the original minibot was pretty fun.

Those look pretty cool. I just wish Hasbro would stop whoring out the Energon Omnicon molds whenever they can, though.
