    Looks like it was made by the old Marvel/Star Wars Transformers guys, no thanks

    Going back to my frustration to Thrust, Sandstorm G2 has an ETA Dec 2020 to Jan 2021. , we have only 3 months to year's end. Any chance Thrust(another very familiar Seeker) could be squeezed between those months yet a never heard (well it was heard but never released) off G2 character get a committed date release? Also, unless Hb /Takara is opening another factory in Vietnam, can they actually release all those figs? Beer bug notwithstanding.

    Aside from those leaked intentionally obscured photos a few months ago..........the wait is killing!

    He just looks so plain, and not just in colours. He could be a premium deco and he'd still look like Cybertron Thundercracker's malnourished understudy. There's nothing dynamic or exciting about him.

    Going on the information we have (which indicates that Thrust is a Target exclusive), it's possible that Target is going to have several figure displays around Black Friday. We know from pulsecon that Target is supposed to have some sort of Retro Legends display where the exclusive Gambit and Rogue will be sometime "later in the year". It's possible that both Runabout and Thrust will be part of a similar set up for Transformers. Also, that leaked figure months ago indicates that Thrust is already well into production, there's no reason to think that Hasbro can't release all the figures they have on the docket so far

    The more I see sneak peaks of Marverick, the more I like it.. BUT... not at the 70$CAD price tag. He should be at a more acceptable price, 40-45$ at the most.

    I just want Thrust. Why is it so hard to get the two Seekers that I want? I did finally find a Thundercracker after resorting to evilbay. I fear I’ll end up having to pay a similar price for Thrust. F’n sucks to have to pay almost 2 times the figures retail value.

    Who designed this figure and thought it was a good idea to have it released?

    20201001_234351.jpg Thanks for the offer. I appreciate the thought but I already have all of them nasty Seekers. Being OCD, I'm waiting for Thrust for a group shot (together with the Rainmakers and old Starscream himself).

    Yea, same here on waiting for Thrust. My current seeker lineup is
    Siege Rainmakers, Selects Redwing, Netflix Hotlink, Earthrise Seekers and Coneheads (minus Thrust), Legends Slipstream and waiting on G2 Sandstorm (and for Thrust to be available)
