Hunt For The Decepticons Terradive Alternate Headsculpt
Instruction Sheets coming with Transformers toys sometimes provide a wealth of information other than just the instructions. It so happens that we found out about Lockdown/Axor, Bumblebee/Cliffjumper and Darkmount/Skullgrin headsculpts, from those instructions. Now it’s Terradive’s turn.
Terradive’s Instruction Sheet provides us with a look at a different head for the toy. Just like other toys before him, there is a possible chance that we’ll get a retooled toy soon enough.
