Any new toys of them couldn't be any worse than their DOTM Deluxes. Right?

I think they're terrible characters in the movie and god ugly heads... BUT I LOVE the existence of an Ice Cream Truck duo-bot pair something fierce. I wish there was some way to preserve the alt mode without the characters.

-ZacWilliam, Like could we get G1 Skids and Screech with that altmode I'd be sold instantly.

Speaking of a different sort of Studio Series twins, Concept Sunstreaker's car hood panels are attached backwards. Luckily you can just pop them off and reverse them, then rotate the hinge they attach to. This makes his vehicle mode hood have less visible gappage.

Not EXACTLY Studio Series, but Yolopark has posted a teaser for a Rise of the Beasts Apelinq thing. Probably gives an idea of what kind of retooling Hasbro is going to do for the Studio Series version due next year (according to leaked listings).

The black background doesn't do that figure any justice, if they used white, then you might actually be able to see the features better, it looks rather lost against the black

What first I heard of this what does it look like the correct way?

So, why did they make Skywarp primarily light gray instead of black or dark black-ish gray?

It makes him look less Skywarp-y and more like this redeco of Prime Starscream:

Likely to make him stand out more, that is my guess, but then I expect the grey is not as bright as it seems as the offical pictures are taken under multable lights

So, I doubt it would be an SS86 release, but I'm realizing I would be more interested in SS86 Bee if it was Red Bee. Maybe could be a Selects or Legacy release?

As much as I wish it were otherwise, the pics I could find of the character models from the movie all have him gray and purple. It's just a bummer because TC is such a lovely blue while everyone else is kinda boring.

He already stands out by being the black and purple jet! That's his whole thing.

That, and the teleporting ability (whenever writers remember to use it).

I meant against his fellow seekers but then again, it could be the people who are doing the mass production aren't caring or we are looking at a prototype and the mass release will be more in line with the other seekers
