whoa bro, your edge is off the hook. remind me not to mess with you, internet tough guy!

I already have the CW Stunticons but if they are a decent price, I'll be tempted to buy the G2 repaints too… just for the novelty of them actually being released.

He comes out in early 2016, alongside G2 Superion and Victorion. All three of them will be online exclusives, meaning they'll be available to online shops such as TFSource and BigBadToyStore.
Dark Jedi
When does this guy come out? Also will it be an exclusive figure?
Sa173533
You're seriously calling Hasbro lazy? Because they wanted to rehash something from 1994?
Your reasoning… Did you get it from Knight Hawkke?
(Yes, I am not afraid to name names.)
Bass X0
Have you… somehow… not heard of Victorion?

I wouldn't count on TakaraTomy doing any of these. While it is possible (see Masterpiece G2 Sideswipe, Bumblebee, United Megatron, etc), it isn't very likely. They did not get the reissue part of G2 in Japan.
If TakaraTomy takes a stab at any of these, that will be a bonus. More likely we might see things like Battle Gaia, Guard City, or Valdigus.

I take that to mean the same way Brake-Neck and Quickslinger were released.

Does anyone know if Takara ever issue a G2 combiner? I really want this, but would rather wait and see Takara's colors as well before making a final decision.
Afterburner
"Mostly online," whatever that means.

The question lies is… Where do we get that box set?
The bright 80's color scheme doesn't bother me that much. Since well… There in cars. Also Drag Strip looks good in Black.
Pravus Prime
I'm strangely interested in this oddly colored G2 set. I love the color scheme on Drag Strip.
Autovolt 127
I agree. We need more new character repaints.
Ash from Carolina
repaints are just sort of the history of the brand. Starscream got repainted to give us Thundercracker and Skywarp so repaints have a long history.
Although I do like it better when repaints are to give us new characters instead of an old character just getting tired of their old paint. Still there is kind of a fun factor there that I find oddly appealing.

I liked G2 a lot when I was younger, but I prefer the G1 deco for Mensaor. If they made a G2 Bruticus, I'd be all over that though. For a while, (pre-ebay), G2 Onslaught was my holy grail.
RMStunticon
I have a reason to get the Hasbro Stunticons now.
I want to taste the rainbow.

I almost feel like getting this set and swapping G2 motormaster for Takara's G1 motormaster…
Yobuster
Ok I saw G2 Superion and I was not impressed but amazingly enough this G2 Menasor actually looks pretty damn good. If this comes out as a box set then I'm all in.
TheGriefer
Welp. There goes the value of G2 botcon breakdown. Still gonna pick this bad boy up.
