Nah. Just diecast light up eyes and motorised jaws with a remote. They want an excuse to make them expensive, not pay the actual expense. Dont be silly.

 

I'm fine with the Junkions, but sad they went the route they did with Dr. Egg to justify the severe price increase. Like I get it, but get rid of the voice and die-cast, and they could've pumped out a nice army builder set! I was intent on getting three of them originally before the price reveal! Hopefully any other future Quints on their table won't be loaded with extra features many of us could care less about.

I'm satisfied with the UT and Igear Sharks for their beast modes. Now I'm just waiting for an MP robot mode Sharkticon, as the UT/Igear ones are too short and stumpy in bot mode for me.

 

Pretty much everything you wrote. Junkions are top notch but too pricey for army building for many... not selling well. I'll wait for a clearance $75-$80 a pop is good. So many other fish to fry and they are nearly mirroring everything that is coming out by another third party or Hasbro. On purpose or just bad timing. Been a tough run for them the past 2 years imo; Junkions aside. They make top notch product but marketing and product line up has taken a major dive. I wish them well in the future.

 

The Sharkticons are one of those "if they make them I'll get them but I'm not clamoring for them" figures. I have the iGear versions which work well enough for cannon-fodder characters. If I could get an MP scaled sharkticon that turned into a screen accurate robot I might get one so I can display it in robot mode alongside the iGears in shark mode, but for the most part that itch has been scratched for me.

(FYI I have a MISB box of iGear Sharkticons -- they come 3 to a box -- if anyone's interested.)

 

and a cool poster/box if I remember

 

Hopefully whichever company does eventually produce new mp scaled sharkticons makes them affordable enough to army build. Right now my collection consists of both UT sharkies and iGear sharks. Anyways I'm happy with what I have (for now).

Here's my current sharkticon display...



I have the GP superator reissue on the way so I'm going to swap out MP08 as soon as it arrives. He'll definitely scale better with Wheelie.

 

Wish someone would KO/reissue these up front (Dont know which of the two companies they are). No visible kibble and real tails.

 

Bbts has the reissue in stock - iGear sharks

 

Τhere goes my hide  

 

I'll sell you a set for $80 plus shipping with no sales tax, and I'll give you the option of shipping them loose to save money. Just saying.

 

Τhats a great deal but 2 things: 1) I have my budget cut out for hobby items for next three months due to emergencies and 2)I am not certain at this time how the EU tax regulations work at this time over here cause they are making changes.

HOWEVER. I might get back at you (provided you still have them) at a later date. Seriously this is a good deal.

 

    Even though the scale isn't screen accurate, the fit is great! Awesome scene depiction!

 

Thanks man!

 

Wait, something isn't right. I thought all reissues and warehouse finds now come with a 400% mark-up over original retail.

 

I am sure lots of army builders will interested in MP Sharkticons. Image Gigapower making their versions.  Something looks like this ( maybe bigger one )

 

I wish the UT Sharkies would get reissued as well as the iGear ones  

 

Thanks for the link! Ordered a set.

 

Idk about that. I want my Sharkticons to look very close to the toon, so I'd prefer other companies. A GIGA version could end up looking more like this...

 

And this is a bad thing?  

 

Yeah, you're right. Maybe I'd buy it. Not for my main collection but to scare away the neighbor's cat.
