    I sold about 99% of my movie toys off a few months ago. With the exception of my ROTF leader Primes, HA Skids, HA Mudflap and the ice cream truck are the only toys that I actually kept.

    Has that Mudflap and Starscream two-pack come out yet? I really want to get it for the Mudflap repaint.

    Yeah, they've seen limited saturation in some Walmarts at this point.

    I need to find one. I'll sell Starscream.

    I just love that his deco is suppose to look like his paint job has a been sandblasted off, but instead looks like something went horribly wrong.

    I'm guessing Devastator's mouth wasn't exactly sanitary.

    My local Wal-Marts have had those sets (along with IH/BC) for a few weeks now.

    My problem with the Twins all along has been their head designs. I just wish they looked more G1. It's a shame because I've grown to like their characters.

    I have managed to secure some G1 counterparts for them but not the Encores as you would suspect.

    Instead I use:

    G2 Hubcap

    Argentinian Green Cliffjumper

    Sorry I don't have pics as they're in storage due to my moving soon.

    Since there vehicle modes are the same, they'll either be packaged together or be package separately in there robot modes.

    They're not G1, so why should they need G1 heads?
