...have me thinking such filth and gouge my eyes.
I forget who I was IM'n with the other night but they brought up the fact that I hadn't said much about Botcon Jazz or Grimlock.
That's a lie!
I haven't said a single thing about Botcon Jazz or Grimlock.
There isn't really anything to say.
Jazz looks like any other countless Jazz figures that have been produced and Grimlock isn't all that much different from Classics Grimlock.
I mean, I could have seen them do the Jazz in Stepper colors. That way at least he'd be kind of an Anti-Jazz palette-wise.
But a few words about killing, painted on an alt mode, doesn't do anything for me.
So far Jazz, Grimlock, and Goldbug will likely leave my possession within a few days of returning to Cowtown.
That is if I don't sell 'em off to any dealers who want them at the show.
Hey, if you don't want to keep Botcon evil Jazz, I'll gladly take him off your hands!!
:)
And I agree, Botcon Grimlock just plain sucks, a fugly Tryticon wannabe repaint.
Jazz is the worst one so far. His good color pallet with evil writing in a few spots. He makes a terrible evil color scheme and the evil remarks mean he doesn't work as "Classics Jazz". I'm already using the movie repaint as my classics jazz anyway.
Personally Starscream is worse though. Hey look, JETFIRE COLORS!
Lame.
This year's GRB set is just plain Fucking Garbage! They give us a great set the year before &, just to balance it out, the following year they pump out garbage & expect people to fork out for it. I can definitely see them being stuck with tonnes of these sets for years to come.
DL: Well, if I don't sell 'em at the con for some stores' credit I'll post them.
I actually quite like Starscream/Jetfire but Jazz and Grimlock don't quite measure up to what i would have wanted or expected...
But since when has what the fans want ever counted for anything anyway *shrugs*
Aaaaaaargh, somebody retire the Crosswise mold already!
Love the idea of an evil Stepper-Jazz though. That would've been freakin' awesome - maybe reworking the Classics Hot Rod mold? (I dunno, maybe a stretch.)
Ah I love that Jazz repaint. I thought it looks pretty awesome. To each his own though.
He just doesn't vary enough from the normal G1ish look for me to warrant being part of that "evil" theme. He pretty much just looks like a normal run of the mill Jazz.
