He looks good but I would have preferred him being a Decepticon like Exhaust. We barely have any MP Decepticons whereas we're drowning in Autobots. Posted by Black Hat on September 11th, 2015 @ 4:50am CDT

Oh hell, they are going to make me buy a fifth version of this mold. I suspect that Deep Cover might come sometime in the future if this one does well. Posted by LOST Cybertronian on September 11th, 2015 @ 5:13am CDT

Those colors make him look like a cheap Mexican knock-off. I'm surprised he doesn't come packaged with Superman, Spider-Man and Zorro together on a blister card that says "SPADERMAN & FRIENDS". Posted by AutoBorst on September 11th, 2015 @ 7:23am CDT

This would make a fantastic complement to the 3rd party Sunstreaker - should it get a Police car deco I'd love to have both ; I wish they'd release that Sunstreaker cop car sometime and give it a retrospective Transformers Identity - but then we still don't have a Sunstreaker G1 reissue yet either.



I'm pleased to see an MP Clamp Down as I like the alt mode look more than I do Red Alert's colours. Posted by RAR on September 11th, 2015 @ 9:27am CDT

It wouldn't make sense to suddenly change them into Decepticons. Clamp Down is a preexisting character, guys. He and his brother Deep Cover were e-HOBBY exclusives and members of the Interplanetary Personnel Exchange Program. The two have been Autobots since 2003, which was over a decade ago.It wouldn't make sense to suddenly change them into Decepticons. Posted by Sabrblade on September 11th, 2015 @ 10:02am CDT

Lamborghini Countach, and it won't be the last, trust me. Since Clamp Down is based on an e-Hobby release, as mentioned before, an MP-12D



By the by, those e-Hobby-based extra characters must be selling quite well for TakaraTomy to keep churning them out. Lamborghini Countach, and it won't be the last, trust me. Since Clamp Down is based on an e-Hobby release, as mentioned before, an MP-12D Deep Cover is lurking just around the cornerBy the by, those e-Hobby-based extra characters must be selling quite well for TakaraTomy to keep churning them out.

Just to clarify, I know that Clampdown is a Lamborghini Countach. I meant that I already have 5 of the Nissan Fairlady mold (Prowl etc) so I might as well get multiples of this one too. Thought I would make it clear that I am not an idiot........ Just to clarify, I know that Clampdown is a Lamborghini Countach.

The only Lambor I had as a kid was this Diaclone that I picked up at a comic shop in the 80's. He wasn't even called Clampdown yet.



Look close and you can see how well "loved" he is.





Needless to say this is a must have for me! I was hoping they would do this!

Yay! Another chance for me to get the Lambor mold! I haven't gotten it yet because, well, all I can find are knockoffs. Posted by .... on September 11th, 2015 @ 1:57pm CDT
