I personally don't have a need for this mold, though if it ends up clearance I may purchase him for the right price. I'm strongly interested in Thrust, and Hot Zone though. Thus, i'll likely purchase those two right out of the gate.
I'm sure that someone out there is looking forward to this repaint, since it'll probably be their first exposure to it. All Titanium figures had faults of some kind, including the last molds released (Prowl and Grimlock). It's just a matter of how much you are willing to overlook those flaws, and how much the characters appeal to you.

Pass.
Independant thought in a fandom can be an unwelcome and dangerous thing.

I can't imagine these Titaniums to go over 20 | |

And some pretty kindergarten logic.
Shockwave and Sunstorm came with Activators too. Activators and Voyagers retail at $20ish and $8ish respectively. The fact that they were being marketed at $25.99 meant you SAVED money, rather than buying a voyager and activator separately.
Seriously, how does $29.99 even make sense?
And to the people that believed this the moment they read it...REALLY?
