    They picked one. The accurate choice. Starscream has stripes, they don't. The 3 seekers aren't uniform in their color placement either.

    Accurate to the animation?

    Paint jobs that are animation accurate is the absolute LAST thing I want in my CHUG figures. It’s a shit look on masterpiece and it’s a shit look here. And it’s not exactly like they’re consistent about that either.

    So no, don’t mix and match on stripes.

    Target exclusives are the worst. Walmart usually has a second window where they linger for a few weeks. Bluestreak was down to $16 for awhile and tripled when he sold out. Target? Unless it's massively unpopular, better hope you were logged in and looking the first 10 minutes it was up.

    Yea, the preorder window for Target is always crazy short. And I don't follow any collectors on something like Twitter so I always find out a day or two later!! But to be fair to Target, I always have found at least the retail release. But the windows are short on that too, I'd say about 3-4 weeks in my area.

    Pssst.

    WfC is pretty animation centric for a lot of its design and detailing philosophy.

    I love store exclusives! :thumb 

    If only the economy wasn't crashing and these toys weren't so expensive. :(  Giving up MPs was fine, but this new Recession is going to force me to give up a lot of the mainline figures, too...

    MP seekers are terrible. I can't wait for them to be fully redone. They can't even do a full 90 degree knee bend.

    I am torn on these guys. I love them , they are an improvement over the old chug ones which I love ( I got those Aces set ones from Asia ) , but............ If I buy these I think I need to redo the majority of my decepticons. I cant have these new seekers towering over my headmaster cons, Dreadwing and Darkwing, it would throw my whole collection out of wack. I dont think I am interested in redoing so many in my collection.

    I'll have to wait and see how TC looks in person. Skywarp looks great, but Thundercracker looks like he has the unpleasant flat light blue that sometimes gets used vs. the nice metallic darker blue sometimes used for him.
