still not a big fan of the head but its still an awesome figure

Beautiful, insane him so badly.
And i love the writing on him with the onamontopeia.

I can't wait for this fig!

I know I'm part of the minority here, but I just don't like the "4 treads" thing.

It's not that I can't handle change. I love the new Generations Blurr and Kup. But it just doesn't look right and doesn't do Warpath justice. If anything, this should have been Hardhead.

Go ahead and chew me out, but I think I might pass.

The little turret on his left shoulder is identical to the one on Darkmount/Straxus/skullgrin. Still looks hawt though...

It's not. I have both Skullgrin and Straxus (Darkmount) at my desk and they have a six missile pod that mounts on the other side. This is a 4 missile pod that doesn't appear to have the clip system, me thinks.

Lovin' me some KAPOW though!

You're right, it probably should have been Hardhead since he was a 4-tread from day 1 and I wouldn't be surprised one bit to see a repaint done very shortly after this one is released. I think the only thing that made it so easy to warm up to the idea of this mold as Warpath was that I liked the Armada series Demolisher and Megatron/Galvatron molds. The wider spread treads with the position of the body made it easier for me to buy into the idea of getting the Legends version of Warpath and that one grew on me REALLY fast. But everyones different. I've totally dumped on some of the new molds that everyone else is enamored with and (knock on wood) there hasn't been an angry mob at my door...yet. Don't worry about getting chewed out. I'm pretty sure I'm higher on everyone's hit list so you should be safe for a while.

Im feeling it all the way !!!

With Warpath and Powerglide coming 2011 is gonna be the s**t !!!

Holy crap, that is gorgeous.

Want it. Want it NOW.

Overall, it's alright.

I agree with you. The figure is awesome but his head is very round and looks like a scary hockey mask. I'd order an alternative head that was perhaps a bit more angular and fit more with other Transformers. I'd be all over that, just like the Kup iGear head I pre-ordered.

The lighting and angles from before made the head look pretty weird. But now it looks normal.

These new pictures of the figure are beautiful! I'll definitely be getting this one. I'm really glad they made this a dark red rather than the cheap, almost KO-like light red that was used on the Walmart version of Powerglide.

The new pics make me appreciate how much he looks like the UNSC Scorpion MBT.

You keep revisiting photos (from 2007) of test shots and Titaniums we aren't getting any time soon if ever. In this case, we did get something very similar in Legends class Cosmos. http://www.seibertron.com/transformers/ ... iverse/84/

I'm still not 100% sold on the headsculpt. Looks too much like they had WWI Grimlock in mind for a repaint, but that figure as a whole is money son.

money

The head reminds me of Beast Wars Razorbeast.

Actually, it reminded me of G1 Warpath first.

But after that it made me think of Razorbeast.

I can't believe how much that auction has hit already!!!

Are people really that impatient?!

This looks really good, but i wonder what Takara will do to this guy to make him even better? or if thats possible.

Now THAT is a lovely deep red.

Knowing there's a good fig like that down the line this year almost makes up for the severe disappointment with DOTM so far.

While I'd like to say that it's still rather early to be knocking the DOTM line, it's already been confirmed that we'll be getting smaller figs this time around. Worse still, two of the leader classes have gone to totally out-of-scale characters [BB and Ironhide...WTF?!]

Well, at least those mechtech guns will actually be featured in the movie [the Nascrar Daytone TV spot shows BB transforming from alt mode into some "battle alt mode", with the mechtech gun coming out of the right side of the passenger area].

Sorry for the off-topic rant.

Anyways, Warpath is a definite buy. Thank God for Generations.

ftw

If I was impressed with Warpath in the first batch of pictures then I'm blown away with the second batch. He looks perfect. Can't wait until he gets his United release.

BUT

I wonder which other 3 characters will get released with him in the next United Wave as they've had 4 per wave since the first wave.....

I would definitely get that if it has more red on him, mainly around the shoulders and the head (which should be ALL red in my opinion ).

Easy buy!

Not planning on getting him initially but he is now a buy on sight.

Wow. Love it. I love both modes. Will definitely be keeping my eyes out for him. <3

AWESOME, Deluxe or Voyager?

The missile firing gimmick needs to go though.

want this toy it is epic.




p.s why the rage against the h tank??

Because it's not a traditional tank. Like he was. In the beginning.

Yeah, us Geewunners can be an ornery lot. Just bring up that Arcee is not a generations release but a Prime release and watch us boil.

Deluxe, and it appears the missile launcher may be attached via the new clip system, so you may be able to ditch it.

Actually it looks like it's on those pins, so I don't think you'll be able to remove those without excessive force (Don't you need a hammer or something to remove pins?). <=L

"K4 90W"
"Z0W 333"

OMG...this is pure imaginative genius. Who gives a frack about H-tank when you have pure GEEWUN win on each side?

You're probably right. I saw the pins, but thought they might just be connecting the weapons to the clips. Upon further inspection it does look like they are permanently attached.

exuse me if i misunderstand but (keep revisiting)since when did i ever put any other botcon 2007
photos except the on i just did
Also i was only pointing out that we are getting close to all the first 3 seasons of G1 figures
redone and giving a figure a legends class toy first then eventually a bigger one seems to be the
norm did we ever anticipate warpath as a deluxe i for one didnt see it comming so what makes us think
they will never do cosmos or trailcutter or G1 skids and so on

I don't mind Warpath having a little additional firepower.

Want. Bad.

ZOWEEE!!!, KAPOW!!! gonn'a BOOM!!! get this.

Just joined the threat and didn't feel like reading through all 11 pages, so pardon me if this question has already been asked.

When is this guy expected to be released in the states?

Online retailers have him scheduled for next month.

I'd say he looks properly transformed. I like those little nods to his original speech pattern from the old cartoon. This is definitely a must-get for me.

Yes. Oh yes. I can find nothing wrong with this figure. I will but it and probably any repaint of it.

Zing Zang Boom, I love Warpath he is one of my favourite minibots I pre-orderd him off Kapow Toys today wonder what the United version will look like

Holy crap, just checked the BBTS preorder on this: 24.99, really? Even with their explanation, that seems really high, like eBay/Amazon high.

Guess I'll be waiting until this summer or fall when he finally shows up at Walmart.

Yet their pre-order for it is still sold out... I just pre-ordered the set of three new figs of that wave for $45:

My guess would be Dauros, Thunderwing/Black Shadow. Tracks & Jazz were the only two released in a single wave, so it could happen again.

Sad thing is, I haven't seen one RTS figure yet. The only one I've seen is the Battle in Space 2-pack (featuring Rodimus and Cyclonus; Hasbro got Cyclonus right, but Rodimus, meh, I'll take him even if he was white, just as long as I got his mold), and there are two Wal*Marts where I'm at, and there's been two of them at each of Wal*Mart. I'm struggling to get the 2-pack desperately, since I don't have a job... yet...

Off Topic; I became Chaplain in my NJROTC (Navy Junior Reserve Officers Training Corps)!
