These look like fanjobs. And particularly bad ones at that.

k,delete the thread.i tried though.

I said they looked like fanjobs. I never said they were fanjobs.

But until someone tells me for sure, I'm gonna move this to Toys/Merchandise.

The pics have been posted by S250 of 52toys.com, who's usually a quite reliable source.

Posted in the same thread as new test shot pics of some of those Energon combiners, I might add.

Oh. So did I make a hugeass mistake in moving this?

*waits for a Toy Mod to kick this back to News*

So are these fan repaints or not. If not these are gonna rock especially Galvatron. I can also see Rodimus with an armoured trailer....

That would actually be kind of cool to see.

If we're so confident these are official toys, shouldn't the [Fan] tag be removed from the thread title?

DrEvil · Post by **DrEvil** » Thu Jul 08, 2004 8:18 am

Thats what struck me off from everything so I had to ask.

Nevermore · Post by **Nevermore** » Thu Jul 08, 2004 11:53 am

I was just thinking the same thing...

Whoa! Magic!

yet more recolours

sorry for being negative everyone (I normally like to hear news of new TF's) but this is getting really stupid to be recolouring figures that have only been released a few months ago. It would make more sense to do recolours when the line has finished or at least give the figures a different name and slight re-tooling.

I guess these are to be released as part of the powerlinx battles line.
I also heard that there will be yet another Unicron repaint as well. Already have 2 Unicrons, an Energon Omega Supreme & 3 Masterpiece Primes taking up all the room at the top of my bookshelf as well as Alternators, Armada & Energon figures everywhere else. I'm running out of room fast. Think I better get my dad to make some more shelves

Shouldn't really be that big a surprise at this point. How many toys from the Armada line were repaints of some sort?

hmmmmm i wish regular Megatron would show up around here i've yet to see him let alone repaints

although id love the g1 galvatron repaint the most

I think repainting toys to represent "super modes" of existing characters is quickly becoming a Transformers tradition, starting with the Car Bros. in Car Robots.

Rodimus & Prowl - M'eh.

Megatron - Come to daddy.
