Looks amazing! Thanks for posting. I'm particularly pleased to read Kup's crazyness getting a mention.

Omega gets his revenge for the Crystal City destroyed by the Constructicons Whos the con attacking the soldiers? Is it a Combaticon? Brawl maybe?

People were talking about him on the IDW boards. He's a con from another continuity of Transformers, ie not a regular geewunner. I can't for the life of me remember what his name is and what series of Transformers he appears.

I don't understand, why bring a non G1 character into the book when there are so many G1ers not covered? Not that it really matters for one picture, but someone somewhere has made a deliberate decision to do that (and previously somewhere in AHM if I remember correctly) and it just baffles me.

A shame really, especially as it appears that the plane carrying the bomb is a con as well, it would have been a great chance to introduce the combaticons, even if they don't combine. After all, we have seen the Predacons in SP Jazz, why not? You could've had Vortex instead of the plane, blast off relaying satellite signals, Gen Witwicky and Hawke riding Swindle, and Onslaught with Megs rather than bring in other continuity tf's.

They probably does not own the model sheets for those other never been used characters.

He's Dropshot, a Decepticon Universe repaint of Cybertron Defence Scattershot. transformers.wikia.com/wiki/Dropshot_(Universe)I'm gonna play Devils Advocate here, I like the idea of Non-G1's in the mix, I'd like to see it more. In fact i remember actually making this comment back when IDW started the ...ion run when people were complaining that some2nd stringers were in the forefront insteqad of the expected main-stayers. Go IDW for having the balls to do something slightly different. I spotted him in the end of the last issue and mentioned him on the boards then. Wont spoil things too much but loved an unexpected cameo from Universe Dropshot (Cybertron Defence Scattershot redeco) at the end. Funny thing was I had bought Universe Overload (repaint of same figure) an hour earlier! Spooky. I've been saying for ages that IDW should grab some bots from other continuities into the mix for their take on G1 I'm really looking forward to reading this now.
