    Yummy. I should really try to remember if I already paid for this guy.

    Late December - so the earliest any of us outside Japan gets this toy should be early January.

    Eh, I have the Commemorative Series Ricochet. I think paying another so many dollars for a repaint of Jazz isn't worth it. After all, you could just repaint Jazz and give him Cyclonus' Targetmaster, and the result would be the same.

    Well, it's this or not-HOS-Shockwave. One of those two I will have to regret not having the money for. The other one, I shall convince myself, is a bit crap.

    ... except I really like his color scheme.

    I was never really tempted by Jazz (even at discount at the overstock places). Sick of Carformers, to be honest. But this is really tempting. Might be because Ricochet's reissue was the second TF I got when I got back into collecting. Might be because I love Targetmasters. Might be because that color scheme is sexy.

    ... I'd buy it for American retail.

    I wish this would come out in the US.. Jazz looks SO good in black... I may have to repaint a jazz in black and find another bot to make him.

    Interesting, I could have SWORN we saw images of this carded recently, didn't we? Wonder why the change to a box here.

    It's certainly not cheap, but custom repaints can be just as resource-draining between the time and skill required.

    Want it but definitely not interested in paying $100+ for a repaint.

    I'll just hold out hope for a Hasbro version.

    Just keep telling yourself: We'll get a Hasbro version, we'll get a Hasbro version, we'll get a Hasbro version...

    That's a good point. Ghost Starscream, Electro Mirage, Black Jetfire and Strafe's prices all decreased at some point, although I get the impression this mold and deco gets more credit that the rest.
