Oceanglide
Vehicle ModeRobot Mode
Difficulty of Transformation: Very Easy
Color Scheme: Dark watery blue, silver, dulll gold, light pale brown, shiny bluish white, and some gold-yellow and light red
Individual Rating: 6.5

    The new Oceanglide looks really awesome- well, at least when it comes to his color scheme, which is really all you can expect from a repaint. Anyways, the watery blue, silver, and gold go together extremely well, and is much much MUCH more suiting for a boat than Oceanglide's previous color scheme. The flame deco on the front is also gives it some extra pizzaz to boot. The light pale brown doesn't go QUITE as well with the other colors as the rest of the scheme, but it's certainly not bad. Definitely an improvement color-wise over the original Oceanglide.
    No mold changes have been made to Oceanglide.
 

Stormcloud
Vehicle ModeRobot Mode
Difficulty of Transformation: Very Easy
Color Scheme: Dark watery blue, dull gold, light pale brown, silver, and some light red and shiny black
Individual Rating: 8.9

    Just like Oceanglide, Stormcloud's new color scheme is quite an improvement over the original- and the ORIGINAL looked cool, which gives you an idea of how awesome this guy is. The blue, silver, and gold go together just as well as they do on Oceanglide, and there's also a bit of black this time to throw even more into the mix. Again, the flame decos on the front are great, although the light pale brown isn't exactly the cream of the crop like the rest of the colors. Considering that one of the greatest Minicon molds of them all now has one of the greatest color schemes of them all... well, that makes Stormcloud my favoritest Armada Minicon. Hot dang.
    No mold changes have been made to Stormcloud.
 

Waterlog
Vehicle ModeRobot Mode
Difficulty of Transformation: Very Easy
Color Scheme: Dark watery blue, light pale brown, silver, and some gold-yellow
Individual Rating: 8.4

    Although he doesn't have the flame deco on the front like his teammates, Waterlog's color scheme is still every bit as cool. Just like on the previous two, the color scheme is excellent, with the exception of the light pale brown, which still isn't bad. I also REALLY like all the silver this version of Waterlog has, especially on his arms and on the top of his chest. The gold-yellow windows are also neat. Just like his brethern, this Waterlog is an improvement over the original version.
    No mold changes have been made to Waterlog.

    Every single one of the new Sea Team's members is a sizable improvement over the original versions, so it's a no-brainer that I'd recommend the redeco version of the Sea Team over the original one. And, when you add up all the awesomeness that is the Sea Team redeco, they become my favorite Armada Minicon Team of them all. Definitely worth being picked up by any Transfan.
