    They do, but doing them in Leader class probably wasn't the best move. I got Thundercracker for $25 and Starscream for my birthday, and I then never got around to getting Skywarp because I didn't want to pay $45 for a figure just because I felt obligated to buy it.

    I do, but personally Leaders are too damn big for Seekers in my collection.

    Voyager size is perfect for me.

    yeah , leader size was what instantly turned me off from buying ANY of them, I want deluxe or possible Voyager but not leader size.

    But i do want all three to be the same mold

    Sorry, I was agreeing with what an earlier poster had put about Hasbro's routine with leaders in Titans Return. I was actually thinking of this same thing as you regarding remolds/repaints in general (we've seen HasTak will understandably take any opportunity to use a mold again where possible/appropriate)

    I also agree with you it's too early to tell either way. I don't know for sure, but I guess it just comes down to me personally thinking a) It's an actual appropriate remold to do and b) If they were only doing one of the pair, it would make more sense to do Thunderwing rather than Black Shadow.

    Maybe they are waiting till the 'Power of the Primes' vote is done, as he is a choice on there.

    Or thunderwing may get released in power of the primes and not Titans return. Remember jetfire and the seekers were in two different lines as were ultra Magnus and pmop

    I dont know that I prefer him over the deluxe we got a few years back, that one being a more original design and not a retool, but this one will certainly fit in better with my overlord and sixshot, size wise!

    Yeah, but people would complain if Skywarp wasn't done.

    Yeah, I think this is worth remembering. We could see Twincast or Soundblaster (Blaster/Soundwave), Energon Megatron, Thunderwing, or Metalhawk (Black Shadow), or Energon Shockblast or Six Shot (Sixshot) from the current leaders at any point in the next 2 years or so if the gimmick (Titanmasters) is still relevant.

    Yes I agree, it doesn't really bother me which line Thunderwing would get released in so long as we get him at some point over the next year or so (I don't think there'd be much difference in time between TR Wave 6 & POTP Wave 1 anyway)

    Buzzsaw was also released under Combiner Wars and he was designed for Titans Return, so I think there'll always be some overlap.

    Now there's a good idea.

    I said Titans return. Also they did that because they said they'll complete trios and duos so they had to keep their promise on that.

    This write Hasbro Canada on the box :D  And she said this wave is for CAN. I used a gundam marker pen to fix it already. The scatches is from some sharp edge ( like top of his nose, shoulder blaster... )

    I don't think that's a definite pattern to follow. Hasbro is going to go as far as to make a figure with obvious cues to the more popular Thunderwing and skip that opportunity? I highly doubt that.

    Meh. Call me when they unveil Overlord, this one does nothing for me.

    Topspin, though... Yes, yes....

    I'd prefer Thunderwing to be a pretender.
    Sky Shadow is obviously the obligatory pretool, i wouldnt want a Thunderwing from this mold.

    I have never heard of those guys before. o_O 
    It's nice to know that they had an actual source in G1, rather than being just a random idea that came outta nowhere.

    And they could probably also remold/preMold it as Punch/Counterpunch too.
