In Regards to Price & Release Date for this Neat Seeker, from this pic from Botcon, The Release date is 11/1/09 and Price is $59.99. ^==Hope that helps. -------- Toy-wise, I think it looks pretty cool and I be glad to get him. (My MP Starscream-experience was getting my 3 of him, but to let you know...it was luck as it took me 3 weeks..getting 1 a week so I got lucky there.) -TF2
Mine wasn't that bad, actually, but for a lot of people around here, it got pretty crazy. Came with the help of a friend, though. Then in the weeks afterwards, I saw them in several Wal-Marts around me warming shelves for a few weeks. I remember that they had them all over the store in some states... I managed to score 3 (1 for a friend, 1 for display, and 1 to keep sealed).
I already have MP Skywarp, so I'll pass on this one, but I hope it does well enough to allow for the eventual release of Thundercracker and Grimlock. Unless I'm missing it, WM MP SS doesn't have a transformation difficulty rating listed on his box. Not that it matters anyway, since the transformation difficulty rating just reflects the price point and really has nothing to do with how hard the figure is to transform. Wal-Mart doesn't always put their exclusives up on their website, though. MP SS wasn't, Alt Ravage and Alt Rumble weren't, RotF Skywarp and Ramjet were only up for a few days and there are a few others in recent memory that didn't make it to the website either.
Wal Mart exclusive pretty much means not-available-in-Canada. I guess if I really want him, it will have to be an online purchase.
The picture is actually bigger than the TF08 forum boundaries..if you watch the picture in a new window you will see it's actually bigger. Had me confused at first, too! Seems TF08 doesn't have the picture resize tool TFW has.
this BETTER not be a usa exclusive like mp starscream was!cause if it is i am gonna be so mad!!!!!!!!!
Same, I have MP Skywarp as well, but I want to get one to keep sealed in the U.S. packaging along with US SS. I'm sure that they will pump out Thundercracker eventually. Perhaps next year around the same time? I'm not holding my breath for Grimlock, however. It might happen, but they will have a bunch of things to nerf on him. If it is, just have a forum member pick one up for you. Last year, people were helping each other out a lot around here.
Looking good. Hope there's room for Thundercracker down the line too. Then take a quick trip to spring 07. or eBay.
Sure, Ill bite again Hasbro.. You have 1 more chance with me to not sell me a MP toy that gets stress marks after transforming it once and then cracking when its just sitting on my shelf...
