He'll still be my Insecticon army, especially if we get a Voyager.
Mindmaster wrote:Hardshell seems too.... generic. He would make a nice troop-builder, but not as Hardshell.
I think this is supposed to be a generic Insecticon, but since they had the rights to the name Hardshell, they decided to use it.

Okay. Forget troop building it. My insecticons aren't green. :^p

No, they're black. See them in the light:

Maybe not troop building as Prime Insecticons but they could certainly be used as Fall of Cybertron Insecticons menacing Jazz and Cliffjumper.
That said, I think I'll just get the one. It helps fill out my ranks of Decepticons; it doesn't need to be army built until I get more show accurate voyager scale figures.
Trailcutter is a pass. I don't even know where he's supposed to fit in the Prime continuity, and I don't need a retool. The Autobots have a decent lineup without another Commander clogging things up.

As for Trailcutter, he looks pretty cool but I already have equal numbers of Autobots and Decepticons and the Autobots aren't receiving any more reinforcements unless it's something really spectacular. A few Insecticons and the Terrorcons will certainly help, but I want to make sure the Autobots look really out-numbered.

This is likely a similar case with this Hardshell figure being dark green and gold instead of black and gray.

I'm still going to grab it cause I think in scale terms, Kick-ass Waspinator will fit in nicely with my deluxes.

Kickasspinator?

Coincidentally, in the Japanese dub of TF: Prime, the guy who did the voice of Waspinator in the Japanese dub of Beast Wars did the Japanese voice of the Insecticon from the "Orion Pax" episodes.MasterSoundBlaster wrote:Am I the only one who's getting a "Kick-ass Waspinator" vibe from these green insecticons?

He can't scare me. Nothing scares me anymore after reading this.
Prepare to shat bricks.

I don't know about the Insecticons from other episodes, though. Found out about the "Orion Pax" one from one video someone showed me.MasterSoundBlaster wrote:Sabrblade wrote:Coincidentally, in the Japanese dub of TF: Prime, the guy who did the voice of Waspinator in the Japanese dub of Beast Wars did the Japanese voice of the Insecticon from the "Orion Pax" episodes.MasterSoundBlaster wrote:Am I the only one who's getting a "Kick-ass Waspinator" vibe from these green insecticons?
