Springer, who loves to go by the designation TFX-Defender these days, is looking rather handsome.

Pretty nice! I like the rugged build, and also the fact that there's enough room on his chest for his kids to hang their book reports and finger painting with magnets! Is this something we should make a news story?

Hmmm... I dunno...

D'ya think it's newsworthy?

I certainly didn't know about it until today when I went there to admire the Rodimus upgrade. Might be worth bringing it to folks' attention? It's sure tickled my collecting fancy.

Update time:

Some nice prototype test shots here, including one in robot mode.

Looks like he'll be sporting some die-cast, as if to prove his manliness (not that he has to, mind).

There's also what looks like a Bruticus from them here http://www.fansproject.com/?p=384 - appendage 'Cons to snap onto Classics/Universe Onslaught, perhaps?

I think that's double-yum!

I just saw yesterday theres a preorder at bbts ...so Im definately not settling on that universe repaint. however I do want the ratbat to make into a classicsverse scourge. (I wont pay upwards of $500 for repaints this time)
