    I’d like to know about this as well.
    I mean I’d for sure want the main three but I’d love a couple other flavours.

    I finally put the wings on mine and he’s a big, mean looking bot when he’s all loaded up. Like most 3A figures it’s even more impressive in person than it is in pictures, and it already looks good in pictures.

    At one point decemberist mentioned they are working on a Rotf Jet power prime for the dlx line. Fingers crossed that’s still in the works.

    Last question, are the eyes painted? It seems in some photos that they are red even when the LED function is off.

    Don't post pics like that, it's dangerous for someone like me who's a sucker for getting as many colored seekers and putting them side by side. It would have to be Deluxe scaled, but man would I love having that whole spread along a shelf.

    Ok so I was wrong..I do have one more question..is any weight put on the wheels on the feet when the feet are flat on a surface? As in do the wheels touch the ground at all when he is standing feet flat?

    Can the feet rotate 180? And are they detachable?
    Thanks

    Well that's unfortunate, those will break down a lot faster than they would had they not been stressed.

    Unless you are playing with this thing like a hot wheels car (which I don't think anyone does with high end collectibles but I could be wrong) I don't think you are in danger of "breaking the wheels down" the materials on this thing are top notch and its not like there is immense pressure and weight on them either

    I get that, it is just, in the past event though I pose them once and do not touch them again, I run into rubber cracking and deterioration in as little as 5 years.

    They are rubber-ish but I’m not sure if they are full on rubber wheels

    I think it also depends on where you are too and how dry it is. A friend who lives in a desert region had tons of cracked rubber wheels

    Someone said before they think they may be soft plastic which would do better than rubber for sure, I hope that is the case. But yeah cracking has always been an issue for me.

    Oh believe me I’d want it as well. May be expensive but it’d be incredible.

    I mean all I’d need are the main three and Thrust. The others are dope though, especially the Acidstorm looking bloke.
