    If anyone can recreate shots from the G2 opening with this figure (when he gets released) and ER Optimus Prime, that would be great.

    Yeah, the Cyberverse Adventures line is generally awful, and Slipstream doesn't seem to be generally available in it except with crappy gimicks. Meanwhile, the other Slipstream toy used the rather awful first Windblade mold, so she looks good but poses awfully. I would prefer to have an official, modern-tooling, nice quality Slipstream, but I have very little hope of getting one in Kingdom and this is largely a match, color-wise.

    This and G2 Sandstorm look better than Ramjet from the Amazon pack to me because the entire radome is painted black, not just the tip. Definitely still tempted since my 1st Ramjet figure was the G2 version and I loved the deco on it.

    Looks like he’ll make a great color-coordinated neo-seeker team with PotP Dreadwind and Darkwing.

    That is a great idea! I actually retconned Movie Barricade as being the captain of the Battlechargers. They’re their own unofficial subgroup and a nice counter group to Prowl and the Datsun Bros.

    So apparently the figure is already in stock from Robot Kingdom, hope the BBTs stock comes in soon, they've been lagging behind on most TF's lately (Galvatron being the big exception).

    I'm just hoping BBTS doesn't do me dirty like they did with MOTU Origins.

    Your situation is much preferable. Mine is paid for and stuck in some stinky airport!

    At least you can contact the shipping company and ask what the deal is. I'm stuck waiting for BBTS to forgive my transgressions against them and ship my toys.

    Is there anyone else who ordered G2 Ramjet from Pulse who hasn't even seen their credit card charged yet?
