The issue with Hubcap these days is that most Cliffjumper toys are repaints of Bumblebee, so recoloring a given Cliffjumper back into yellow would be pretty pointless.
That's why I said to repaint him from Windcharger!
I find it curious that the Japanese lines have never tried to retroactively foist BB in with the other Seekers.
The Black Starscream in question said that he was using "Black Body" technology, and that sounds like a shoehorn in if I ever heard of one.
Shattered Glass. Rodimus was in a souvenir set the first year they did SG, and Cyclonus came out as a Club store exclusive a while later.
Bugger me.
You’re totally right on Megaplex though, I vehemently maintain that he’s as close as MW gets to an ‘iconic’ character, and was the sole unique, interesting idea to come out of the line.
Don't forget Thundy's changed bio note! Which will probably be completely ignored!
Dom wrote:Windcharger as Hubcap? I dunno. I would love to see that mould get used again, (and even a limited release from Fun Publications would be helpful). But, I am not seeing it as Hubcap.
They may as well recolour RTS Hubcap, another under-distributed mould.
He'd just be a big, yellow Windcharger. It could work. Although you're right--I forgot about RTS Hubcap.
Cybershark/Hammerstrike? (I forget what happened there....)
The Wiki claims that Cybershark from BW and Hammerstrike from BM are the same character...because fanon said so in 2000. (Hammerstrike has a similar bio, I guess?)
