    This guy should be going up for pre-order in the coming weeks. Looks like toy Saftey sites already have it in hand.

    This is “Tra Gen Retro 4” from previous listing batches.

    Cool, black fists with the hole for holding gun Megatron! Should allow any conehead to hold him too!

    Cool, I guess, more seeker variations and all.

    Kinda uninspired, though. I would've even preferred a g1 Ironhide with a face tampo or something. There's just so many more interesting g1 reissue redeco choices to choose from, frankly.

    YES. GOOD.

    I'm glad I picked up Starscream so my Thundercracker will Master Chief dual wield Megatrons.

    G1 Ultra Magnus is my top G1 want; I keep holding off on just buying one on eBay, waiting for a reissue. This is the year, I can feel it! Animation accurate colors would be incredible!

    Skipped Screamer since I have the previous Walmart reissue, but might bite this time...

    Hoping this means Skywarp is coming. I'd love to finally have a full set of the OG seekers with the same mold

    Well, I’ll buy him, but I really wish they’d choose some other molds. If they’re going to do a movie g1 line, then they should focus on the movie cast. Better than that, though, do some 87 and 88 guys

    Floating helplessly through the empty depths of space would have been more appropriate screen-accurate box art.

    Yeah but the Seekers are one mold and have a diehard following. They're basically a free pass to selling at least three figures every time. It's a license to print money.
