That has to be one of the ugliest things ive ever seen. Something else to add to my huge "do not buy!" list.

Ouch - especially when Bad Boy presented an option (preferaby the Gobot camo - a realistic approach wouldn't have hurt the mould, and it'd be nice to finally have a TF plane that looked something like it would in real-life...).

Looks like a biger version of Skywarp, it doesn't look that bad to me.

I like it better than, say, Tread Bolt.

I'm with you there... just...

Both are hideous though!

Hasbro seem to be repainting following the same 'good' logic they used at points with the Jurassic Park lines (Hasbro, Kenner, meh...).

It is a shame, as some moulds could be nicely repainted - how they make such a mess, I really have no idea...

I don't particularly hate it per se, but if they'd done it in (oh I don't know Cobra blue?) I might have been more apt to snatch it up. That'd be a sweet reference. They could even call it Wild Weasel.

Looking at Bad Boy on google he'd be pretty awesome, too.

Not bad for a Powerglide repaint.

On closer inspection he looks very nice in jet mode. Might have to break my rule about no more big toys.
