I don't know what exactly it is they do, but their minibot teams look so vibrant compared to the Hasbro versions. Maybe it's fotoshooping, but I hope not. I dearly want that spy team, despite the fact that it's the worst spy team ever.

Damn...
Well we'll see how the Hasbro one compares because this Henkei one looks mighty fine...

Warpath: (whispering) So what's the BAM! plan?
Wheelie: Sharkticons make quieter pets, we'll be killed by your Tourette's.
Warpath: BAM! Sorry, I can't BAM! help it. Think they heard us?
Galvatron: Here's a hint.

Smokescreen is looking great too.
Brawn seems a much nicer version that the Hasbro one (better green, and I prefer the yellow headlights):
Cosmos and Beachcomber seems the same (except for autobot symbols maybe).
Cliffjumper I'm not that interested in since he has no new head, but if I get Brawn then I'll end up with him anyway.
Wheelie looks a bit faded, Universe one is probably better.
Warpath looks like he has metallic red paint and is missing a yellow paint app that is in the Universe version.
So I might end up getting the Universe "Spy" team members, and Henkei everything else.
R.I.P Wallet.

Sideswipe repainted from a Red Alert mold which is already a Sideswipe repaint? I'm lost.
However, a G2 Sideswipe would be freaking awesome!!!! And Clamp Down and Deep Cover, and Tigertracks, give me all of them!

Just imagine something off the mark and disappointing.

a strong little guy who'll die if shot in the shoulder (Brawn)
A little aggressive traitor everywhere seeing weapon loving guy (Cliffjumper)
And a hippy who hates fighting (Beachcomber)
While the Spy team consists of:
Annoying but friendly flying sources guy (fits the team)
A totally annoying rhyming little monster (Wheely)
And the fecking turrets syndrome having loud tank (Warpath)
No wonder the Bots keep getting shot to smithereens.

I totally agree! Botcon Maybe? I want them all especialy G2 Sideswipe if they make it, but they can ditch the green gun!

That was my thoughts exactly. Hasbro got the win on Sideswipe.

I am probably the only person who interpreted it the other way. Sorry about that.

WOW

I just wish BBTS wasn't charging $4 more for him than all the previous deluxes.
