    With the fact snapdragon doesn’t seem to do that, and his a mercenary for some reason, I doubt it.

    That's funny.... That's exactly what I did with the G1 DD back when I started collecting.
    Of course, back almost 20 years ago, it wasn't so expensive to do that....

    Snapdragon wasn't classically a sideswitcher.

    Doubledealer was and Detritus came with Autobot and Decepticon stickers, I believe.

    Now that we know about the panel flipping shoulders, give him G2 and G1 Decepticon logos that flip.

    I'm not saying it's mistransformed. I'm saying that clearly, the lower legs will swivel around and fold over the thighs in some way for vehicle mode. The legs are the vehicle modes front end. The calves have to have a gap for that to work. So I'm not sure what you want there.

    The thighs are quite hollow, not arguing that. Doesn't bother me. YMMV.

    10/10 I would buy this mould a second time. I had Stalker as a kid and aside from nostalgia value, that Deco would be flippen awsome on a shelf, possibly near to Spinister. Also deserves some green missile accessories, even if non firing.

    I would buy him as Stalker in a heartbeat. The preds and turbos need new figures damn it. Make Hyperdrive while they are at.

    Loving this assortment!!  DoubleDealer looks to be one of my favorites.  I really wish Snapdragon had the paintapps like ApeFace does though

    How does it work for people outside the US to get exclusives like the seeker 2-pack? Does Target ship overseas or do they end up on BBTS or other stores?

    I really wanna try and get TC and SW.

    Had to go with bbts for the cassettes selects. Most of the exclusives dont leave the US unless they reach ebay or Amazon and by then you pay through the nose.

    Robot Kingdom and other Asian resellers would have the set available to those outside of North America.

    Most of the selects were available through EB Games here in Canada. The siege Amazon multi packs were in thier computers just before everything went into lockdown too.

    Some of the bigger markets like AUS get it in some stores. Smaller markets - we look for scalpers.

    Yes.

    Seriously though, it's fortunate that my Generations reboot shelf isn't faction-organized. All my mercs will be littered among the randoms.

    Ebay:
    RK did not have many of last year's Target Siege exclusives (Micromaster 10 pack and Rainmakers 3 pack) and sold through quick as anything

    The selects were mostly available through the UK sites last year but even pre chaos bug they hadn't offered them.

    I'd been planning to go RK with these and was happily waiting knowing I could see them for sale on the search page

    https://www.robotkingdom.com/catalogsearch/result/?q=generations+select

    Unfortunately the actual listing shows them as sold out

    Transformers Generations Selects Micro Masters Spy Patrol.

    TonTon really shows off Sky Lynx's wing articulation better than Prime Vs Prime. Also anybody else digging that Doubledealer's support struts look like an Old School rocketpack in robot mode.
