Wow, HA Skids looks fantastic. Hoist too. He seems to sport a new head, right?

Doesn't look like it. I don't see why he'd need to; Longarm's head was already pretty Hoist-like.

ooo. loving it all.

skids does look fantastic and i don't care that he has door wings and didnt in the movie he looks awesome. now arcee looks like garbage but so did chromia so oh well. though arcee looks worse then chromia IMO.

I'm LOVING HA sideswipe. hopfully they did something with the back kibble but love him just the same even if its still there.

can't wait for these and really hope they bring out many many more HA figures.

In one of the shots, you can see the face is different, he seems to have a mouth, something Longarm didn't have.

Ah, I'm glad to see that the Desert Devetation pack explains what happened to Skids and Mudflap after they were running under Devestator...they transformed and drove away.

I feel so much better now.:D

The head is pointed downward in all of those shots. All you can see is the top of the head and the protruding chin-piece, both of which match Longarm's sculpt exactly.

Longarm also had a vent-like detail in the general area of where the mouth would be, so that might be what you're thinking of.

Also, G1 Hoist didn't have a mouth, so why would Hasbro go through the trouble of retooling the mould to make it look less like the character it's supposed to homage?
