    Because we need new molds of Classics we already got instead of using those resources for the Classics that have yet to be made.

    Hopefully they will do a Sunstorm so I can finally have all 8 seekers in proper classics scale. I already have the other 7 and I love them all.

    I really think that once we get a few more characters, the old seeker mold needs to be retired, that thing has almost degraded into a puddle of plastic.

    I think they're going to do the Seekers only because it was hard for a lot of people to collect all 6. What with them being released over several years through different lines and always with some as exclusives. Granted there are 3 of each of the original 6 (except for Skywarp) over the last 6 years, it's still probably something quite a few people weren't able to collect.

    You probably missed it like a ton of other people did, but these are not GDO. They are by TakaraTomy (like everything else on TransformersAsia.com) and not by Hasbro Asia like the GDO stuff that ended up at Toys R Us. None of the stuff on TransformersAsia.com (which was by TakaraTomy) ended up at Toys R Us stores. Only stuff from Hasbro Asia.

    He has to keep up with tradition and offer a one-line thought on every single news thread.
