So I'm sure there is some demand for them. Quote:

Takara has say over Hasbro in this regard. Now out of respect for the Botcon figures, IF they ever did them I'm sure they'd be different (as they'd probably want to do more cartoon accurate versions anyway). Quote:

Randy | I'd picture Thundercracker in a lighter sand blue, like the movie one. I just love that colour. |

News Credits: 1 | As long as they release Thundercracker, that'd be awesome, as I never plopped down and bought the Botcon set, due to the fact I only cared about that toy.
So, I'm looking forward to seeing Takara doing something with him hopefully, so I can finally have the three seekers. MY VIDEOGAME AND DVD COLLECTION!!! http://s15.photobucket.com/albums/a3...%20Collection/ |

#78 | | 1.21 Jigowatts Join Date: Nov 2006 Posts: 763 Location: NC. Collection Count: Quite a bit, but most of them are for sale.. | Hmm, I'll pick up Ramjet for sure. Skyfire/Jetfire is a maybe, as I absolutely love Hasbro's version. If it's different enough, I'll buy it too though.
The rest of the seekers would be REALLY nice.
