    this is basically hasbros version of takaras lg-ex

    it doesnt seem so much watered down as more of a spiritual successor to the end of rid01/universe1.0/funpub/cw&tr boxsets/may mayhem/amazon prime wars exclusives

    Makes sense. They know they'll get Stackers saving on shipping while EE gets that extra $6 per figure because you order them as they come out.

    Speaking of, I absolutely expect this to be how we see Big Powered stateside.

    Was kinda hoping they'd include a targetmaster with Ricochet, since they have a whole pile of them hitting shelves now... but I'll just have to pick one up for him separately.

    Otherwise, looks good! I'll get 'em, and I hope they release more repaints in this series.

    Is it me or does he look a very different grey to the POTP Dinos?

    Yea he's definitely has a more lighter flat grey compared to the Dark metallic grey the others have.

    If they had done chrome wings, I would have been all in on Swoop.  The flat grey looks bad.

    I don't think Ricochet/Stepper is final. His paint looks like it was hastily applied, and not very well in some areas.

    Yup, I didn't really expect one. Just would have been a nice surprise. :)

    I don't like the POTP Jazz mould but that Ricochet deco is tempting.

    Hope they release more fembots.

    Oh please don’t say that—an Artfire would complicate my goal of having complete Combiner teams.

    Will definitely get Ricochet, he can pal around with PoTP Wreck-Gar. Might get Swoop, but probably leave him in-package.

    That does make me wonder if we might see more Diaclone Dinos in Select?

    I'm sold on both. I'll just pretend Red Swoop is a separate Dinobot, and with that upcoming Siege dino-Battle Master, it would be like having a small Pterosaur robo-family.
