Only ones I really want of these four are BigDaddy and Jolt. The other two look horrendous in Vehicle Mode.

All that matters is there is a new toy named "Big Daddy".

Those are some of the worst color choices I have ever seen for a repaint...seriously.

I love the Downshift mold. Glad to see it back, but "BIG DADDY"?!

Worst. Name. Ever.

Ooh! I'll be wanting to track down Big Daddy.

After second glance I suppose Big Daddy is alright..it is a good mold, but the dayglow orange missles look bad. The other three suffer from some very badly thought out dayglow/neon paintjobs though. And the Thundercracker repaint is the worse by far imho.

Interested in all of them so far with the exception of the thundercracker repaint. Perhaps the fact that I don't own any of those moulds helps it, though.

I love Downshift and the new color scheme looks great so I'll probably be picking up Big Daddy. I've also been meaning to pick up a Crosswise but the new color along with being a Decepticon is kind of turning me off with Jolt; I need more Autobots!

Ok..now they are all three definatly out for me due to dayglo/neon colors, Big Daddy looked pretty good in car mode, but the overwhelming neon orange in bot mode just ruined it.

Hmm, I know it's silly to say, but Big Daddy really does look like he's missing his "Wheeljack lights" on the sides of his head...ach, not like they'd just take those out for no reason, right? And even if they did I wouldn't let that stop me from buying him! But it really worries me that they're not pictured on the front box art either...

I kinda figured it would look like that, since it's an homage to the original Big Daddy.

This is a good point...personally I'm really starting to like the orange.

While we're on the topic, I'd like to say that I have every intent of withdrawing the comments of my last post, but it won't let me delete it. Gah, I'm such a n00b; my apologies.

My best guess is that the "ears" were taken out as part of that same homage factor. And I think the head still looks pretty good without them

To be perfectly honest I didn't realize it was an homage, but even now that I know I still think its a horrid color scheme to be perfectly honest. I may pick it up eventually because I like the mold (My son has the original Cybertron mold), but the other three are for sure too obnoxious of a color for my tastes.

hmmm... not as bad as i ewas expecting from the reviews you guys gave... i'm diggin some of them...

"Big Daddy" has a bad name... but personally the black and "warning" orange looks friggin' cool! plus- i love the mold (goodbye goofy ear thingies! hello cool flames!)

i'm gonna have to get Overcast and Jolt as well... they look awesome! and maybe even grindcore- he looks a little like bonecrusher imo... but he he'll be only after i haven't bought any figures in a while...

but i will not buy the skywarp repaint- one of the worst molds ever- in my opinion... i hate him... almost as bad as cybertron runamuck...

of course i am a little annoyed- as i just finished turning a cybertron downshift into a nemesis form... would have been easier to change the orange parts for the grey ones and add decepticon logos... dang... new project for later i guess...

I kinda wish I passed up on Cyb Smokescreen and Cannon Ball. I would have displayed Smoke with my Classics tfs, like I did with Target Exclusive Movie Jazz.

I really only want Cannon Ball, since he's a pirate.

Still only want BD from this lot. The Cyb TFs just didn't float my boat, by and large.

Thanks to Dinobot Swoop at the cybertron.ca boards, we have new images of the Wal*Mart exclusive Movie figure, Big Daddy. Plenty of pics in and out of packaging. Must say this one looks nicer than I thought upon first viewing.

anybody seen these out yet? my walmarts just restocked about two days ago- and no walmart exclusives! and neither have ever had the masterpiece starscreams!

I actually checked the list that Nevermore's compiled for this site, yesterday, since I hadn't heard anything. No word, since the pics surfaced in China.
