Least exciting of the subscription figs, IMO. Just looks bland next to all the others.
I'll go against this and say it's probably the best looking fig of the bunch...but I think I'm through with repainted combiner figs that don't combine.

True, but IIRC the first news we heard of these figures showcased a pic of all three in vehicle mode (BD, Cir, and Scourge) and had a seperate pic of BD in robot mode. But I guess it's just wishful thinking on my part

Speculations...
Classics molds are most wanted, and would go later. Scourge is going to be last since that's the one everyone wants the most. It wouldn't shock me if this was the order:

1) Circuit
2) Slipstream
3) Jackpot
4) Breakdown
5) Ultra Mammoth
6) Scourge

I wish he was a retail figure. I would like to have at least one Decepticon that turns into a car.
I don't care if your world is ending today, cos I wasn't invited to it anyway.

My guess is that Scourge is going to come out during Christmas time. At least, that's what i'm hoping for.

i think leading with Circuit is a bad idea. They should lead with Scourge and end with Slipstream. They seem to be the most desired, especially if the BBTS preorders are any indication. Start strong, finish strong. Leave a positive influence on people, especially since they'll have another set of 6 next year to interest us.

So, apparently, there's the "official" CHMS, who originally released the KO Rainmaker Classics Seekers, and a second group knocking off CHMS products. This new group took over after KO Toys was brutalized by Hasbro's attorneys. They are not affiliated with the original CHMS and are "knocking off" their products, so to speak. Reports of figure quality vary wildly.

That's right, people are knocking off the knockoffs.

Might the fact that this has to be a pre-production version (since we know production can't happen until they know how many they need to make, i.e., after September 10th) be a factor?

I'd flip that start stop, but otherwise I'd agree, regardless the sooner I get UM the happier I'll be.

I'm indifferent towards this figure, but I think it came out nicely. I'll be happy to own it.
