    ... This day has not been easy on my wallet.

    Actually, that ad doesn't say anything about a special toy. It just says it "doesn't come with the toy" - that could well be a standard disclaimer...

    Cant wait to see what the exclusive is. But it is just a reminder that I still need to bite the bullet and order Stepper.

    I've been watching BBTS's stock level for Stepper so I can hope he goes lower. It snag him if stock gets too low...

    lol, me too. Infact just checked after this thread went up. Still hoping for a price drop, but if it starts getting low (for some odd reason), I will bite the bullet. If the next one happens to be Artfire, I will buck up though, and buck up for another Gear of War set.

    I suppose it's to much to hope for Roadrage or Detritus.

    lol I checked it after reading this thread too! If we get Artfire... I just hope he comes with a reverse colored Nightstick and not that PCC Minicon he had in the comic...

    We're already getting Road Rage in the Botcon set this year (more or less). I'm still hoping for Artfire.

    You are absolutely correct. I guess I need to read more carefully before making sweeping statements ^_^().

    Yeah, the focusing on Pretenders excites me more than the toy (which will likely remain out of my price range). :) 


    -ZacWilliam, Pretenders rock and don't get near enough love.

    I too would really like for it to be Artfire. That said we're now talking about a character from last year's comic of course. That said, I wonder which Masterforce and/or pretender character they could make as an exclusive if Million Publishing & co went that way. A little obvious to the point of being a bland choice but Generations Skullgrin doesn't have a United counterpart yet. There are even less candidates for Headmaster Juniors - if the exclusive is a straight redeco of a presently available mold; two points to consider the inverses of.

    Still, discounting those things makes Artfire seem more likely. Unless by some great inprobability we get, for example, Generations Nightbeat in the interim and an exclusive Minerva/Minelba.
