super in love with this panel from G2 #7 where every single character gets colored in but then we get to Blitzwing at the top and the colorist is like "fuck that guy" and does him in Mass Crowd Scene Blue

Yeah, half the artists (usually the UK ones) had Stranglehold reference materials that didn't have a mustache. And at this point I think it's just a game of telephone.

Hey, it's still 80% more characters in full colour than we'd have got in G1!

don't worry, blitzwing, you get to be featured on the cover for Compedium Two for absolutely no reason

That’s not blitzwing, he’s actually a convention exclusive repaint just visiting for the weekend.

So who's the guy standing next to what looks like Starscream with the wrong color head? Looks like just some big, beefy barbarian guy who got lost on his way to a cosplay convention.

That's Stranglehold! He's a Pretender. But not the kind of pretenders mentioned in the dialogue next to him.

Thanks! 👍 I think the Pretenders may have been a bit after my time, which is why I don't know much (or anything) about them.
