    It's odd that there still no video reviews yet.

    A new vid. Thanks. I hope Bobby Skullface does one soon. He calls it like it is....no sugar coat just the good, the bad, the ugly.

    Got mine from BBTS today. After inspection everything seems pretty decent. Really liking that face sculpt... something different. His heels and toes are a little loose and he tends to want to tilt backwards. Some spots show some kinda sloppy black paint apps. And the gold on his intakes by his head look like they're different shades to me. The bending null rays are annoying. A few minor sprue marks and his hands look like they are a bluish plastic and painted black? You can kinda see it coming through. But honestly this mold is getting old to me as I'm sure it is to others as well. And it's getting harder to justify the money for what you're getting. I mean, give me some accessories at least, even if I don't really need them. A stand, an alt-mode Megs... something else for this price point. Probably gonna go with a KO Dirge just so I can calm down. But at the end of the day I love me some Cons and the seekers are great characters.

    He's easily the most visually interesting Deceptijet I've seen - great pose there GoldenLagoon (awesome episode with plenty of Thrust to enjoy!).

    I don't have my one yet, but I imagine it will be in my hands in the next 3-4 days. I agree that it will be good to be done with the mold and its exorbitant price tag.

    I spent some time posing MP-11 and transformed MP-11SW tonight to load him up (as best as I could) with the little energon cubes that came with my FansToys Not-secticons (ala that scene from The Ultimate Doom).

    It'll be nice to put Thrust through his paces when he arrives - I think I'll give Danny Boy's rubber band bracelet trick a try to sort out his loose rivet.

    I received mine from BBTS yesterday. I think he looks great out of the box, the face sculpt is excellent and the deep shade of red really works for me. I thought the knee pads would really stand out like they do in photos, but they don't seem as bad in the flesh. He is a little floppy in places but no worse than than some of my other Seekers. As someone else said, the hinged null rays are annoying. Overall, I am reasonably happy with this figure, he looks great!

    Does anyone else have stress marks on the hinge of the part that you have to rotate in order to hide the engines in bot mode?

    Does anyone have a photo showing what would be wrong about the shoulder? Wondering if my Ramjet has this issue or not.

    Does anyone recommend I buy this or the yes model conehead? Not sure if it's technically a direct KO but seeing how much QC this transformer has suffered I'm not sure which way to go since I dk prefer first party. Thoughts?

    Performance QC and money worth with tons of accessories:

    Take your pick!

    You can probably grab both YM Thrust and Ramjet for one Takara Ramjet price wise.

    I just got the Yes Model Dirge figure in. My god it is awesome. I wonder if I should still get the other coneheads in any capacity. I didn't have a big attachment to the like the F-15 seekers. Blue is my favorite color, so Dirge checks this perfectly. I got Skywarp, Starscream (Ghost flavor and MP11 Long Life Design), and Thundercracker as Takara plus Acidstorm and Sunstorm as Hasbro masterpieces.

    One of my friends just showed me his Ramjet. God that thing is shaky. But the seekers seem fine to be with no shaky parts except my Takara Ghost Starscream.

    Too many choices, but not enough space. I may just get Bitstream Yes Model and then can it for all the seeker molds. What to do, what to do? :sly2: :peoples: :banghead:

    I surprised to hear that some Ramjets are floppy? My figure is actually quite stiff. However my Thrust does have some mid section floppiness.

    Are the legs on yours fine? Problem is his asking price is huge.
