A repaint of ultra class Silverbolt has emerged as Decepticon Darkwing! It is rumored as another TRU exclusive and confirmation is still pending. Click here to check it out!

Based on the pics, it looks like a great nod to Darkwing. It's also pretty good for owners of the Dreadwind figure from BC '07 to finally be able to get his partner in crime.
Now if only they'd make minicons to represent Hi-Test and Throttle!

I'd love new mold versions of those two, especially since it would represent the Powermasters in Universe.
Of course, I'd even settle for a repaint of the jet twins into Animated Dreadwind and Darkwing, for that matter.

Hasbro chose a good figure to repaint as Darkwing. The Silverbolt mold is excellent, sure it is the simplest of the new Ultra molds, but it is one of the best, definitely better than Powerglide. The alt mode is great, everything locks together well, both modes are very stable and sturdy, there are ratchets all over the place in robot mode, and the deco on both this and Silverbolt is applied well. I think Darkwing fans are in for a treat, this is one of the molds that just works well as both characters.

New pics have surfaced of Darkwing's robot mode, courtesy of chenkofs from the ACToys forums.
Images attached below. I'm liking this deco more and more. I might even pick him up now, even though I was only going to do one of each Ultra mold (hence why I own Stormcloud but not Powerglide).

Darkwing's colors look great on this mold. He was always my favorite between him and Dreadwind, so I can't pass him up.

It's weird, I saw Dark Ramjet post here, and his avatar, then Dreadwing, then immediately thought, "hey wait a minute, this figure might also work as a G2 Ramjet!"
The figure looks great in the new pics, if I didn't already have Silverbolt(one of my favorite classic figures!), I would probably pick this up. |
