yeah, it ain't stickers on the SDCC one. its more like the arms micron terrocon painted red with certain unpainted parts to represent the dark energon in him i guess. ...oh and a new head too.

so im curious to see how this tcj will be. think im in for prime, bulk, and vehicon maybe.

I need starscream and CJ. My FE prime arrived with broken light piping so if he's not too expensive I'll get another one and a Dr. Wu face for the damaged one.

Cool, good to hear the FEs will be available from more sources, as it's a pain finding stuff at TRU for me locally. I'm definitely looking to get one FE Vehicon, while Terrorcon Cliffjumper, Bulkhead and Prime are maybes.

As for the Dark Energon stuff, I'm surprised preorders are going up on a Saturday on a holiday weekend; I'll have to check their website, of course, but would expect them more likely either tomorrow or the 4th. While I'm trying to avoid repaints, I love clear plastic and Starscream (Skywarp), Knockout (Wasp) and Wheeljack (Slicer) can all be repurposed easily enough.

I found a FE Starscream at the TRU in White Plains NY on Monday. Dont know if it was old stock (no dust on it) or from the re-release. I have been there many times at its on my way home from work and I had never seen it there before.

Bah, no FE Cliffjumper (standard variety)? That kinda stinks, I've been holding off of RiD CJ because of this.

Oh man this is sad news for myself and the handful of other "sane" collectors where I live...

Our TRU is so scalperific that every time something is announced as a "Tru exclusive" we all just throw our hands up and accept that it may as well not be getting an American release at all.

It's a whopping $30 shipped on eBay.

Even if it were at TRU by the time you're done with TRUs price padding on exclusives, tax, gas you'll probably blow the bones of $20 anyway.

Push the boat out, or skip lunch a couple of days.

Don't forget Knockout/Wasp!

Cool. I already have most of the original FE releases but may bite on a lighter green colored FE Bulkhead. I got the darker green Takara release at Japanese retail but I'm curious how the two stack up.
