While I would like the ones you listed, Skywarp and Thundercracker came out about 7(?) years ago and were limited to only 1000 pieces each in Japan. So I'm sure there is some demand for them.

Yes. Takara, when it comes to Transformers, can do whatever release they want to. 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).

Cliffjumper yes, Aveo Swerve never. HLJ had the figure up for preorder for about $90 to $100 this past week though.

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

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.

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.

I agree, it would be nice if they released "ALL" of the seekers.
