Let there be Terrorcons for everybody!
I'm really looking forward to more info on the giftset. The only one I want to get carded is Cutthroat, as the single carded version has an AWESOME deco, and he's the only Terrorcon I had as kid.

It seems to be a Hasbro trend lately to make 4 out of 5 team members G1 accurate colors and the 5th member crazy colors just to piss us off. Im stll getting it just because they are the Terrorcons. I dont really give a crap about TF Prime.
I think Hasbro does it just to annoy you personally.
They're out to get you.

Guess i am just suped that they are actually doing a combiner like this.
Hopefully this is a regularly occurring trend.

Agreed, but he's FAR from terrible, and I think most of the "meh"-ness is from the boring paint scheme. I think that a lot of the molding is getting buried under wash of red.

I'd say this wins out over G1 Abominus.
Also- MONSTRUCTOR REPAINT!

OH! Duh! I wonder if that's what the Target exclusive 5-pack will be?

Sabr, you should join us Brits, after that comment.
(Because of the understatement, I mean.)
That was a good one. Thank you for the laugh.
Needed it after seeing the preview for MTMTE 15.

Yes. Same mold. The giftset is Target exclusive.
I have a serious question, why does anyone think there would be two versions of the Terrorcons, moldwise? There is no precedent for doing that that I am aware of and it would mean they spent more money remolding the combining gimmick OUT of the molds.

To spite me and my wallet
Obviously it wouldn't be a smart move for Hasbro, but I thought I'd check anyway.
I wonder what colors they'll use for the exclusive..

Haha, maybe. It was suggested earlier by RhA that the redeco might be Monstructor? I could dig that for sure. The only one I care about in any particular deco is Cutthroat, so I'll be getting the carded version of him no matter what the giftset deco is.

The detail is quite impressive as well. I'll be sure to pick up the rest of the Terrorcons.
If only his knees bent. But he's got swivel feet so that helps. I don't buy cyberverse but i recommend Sinnertwin so far.

For the most part I agree with you RA....but to be honest.... It's Hasbro... and ROTF Devy wasn't a far step from what your talking about. (oh buy the constructicons and turn them into robots.... oh, no, he doesn't turn into Devy..... that is a whole other set you have to buy). It wasn't the same molds, but not far off.

Hm, granted. I'd forgotten about that. But surely they've learned from that debacle...surely...
