    I can't speak for all seeker fans, but for me I'm always looking for a better seeker. Having one G1 seeker would be nice, but I don't need or want a full set of seeker bricks and the kibble and bit they come with. I really wanted that POTP mold as Cracker and Warp or the UW retool as seekers limb for POTP Screamer but that was not to be...

    Empty shelves can also imply stock is moving and selling out.

    I've already got the 2006 and 2010 Blaster reissues (as well as my original), but I have never owned a G1 version of Skywarp, so I threw a vote his way. Though based on the polling so far, I don't see him winning unless something changes the trend. I agree with PoweredConvoy that it'd be nice to see Rewind get reissued at some point. It'd be nice if he came with Blaster, if he wins, but I'm not holding my breath.

    I wish we could also vote for "having ALL the Wal-Marts carry the reissues" as a option. None of my local locations carry that stock, not even the minibots.

    Skywarp was the earliest memory I have of owning a transformer. I’m definitely picking him up if he wins

    That's not on Hasbro. Wal-mart has demographic stocking and pricing so if an item does not sell at one location they wont carry it, but the other location across town might have it in an abundance.

    I want a Unicron Trilogy best-of. 'Zit too soon to ask for Animated reissues? Maybe do the ones that went unproduced as Selects?

    If both are optional... then why make us choose?

    Do both for a wave, then thundercrack & blaster tapes the next wave.

    Would suck to have no arms, then u go to the doctor to get some arms and he shows you 2 arms like the arms u used to have but says u gotta choose 1 arm.

    I'll vote Blaster because my boyfriend has been looking for one that won't cost him an arm and leg.

    Botbots has been selling like hotcakes, and I recall Rescue Bots and RiD15 being reasonably popular. So, considering Hasbro always runs several lines anyway, I don't see what your complaint is.

    They're not garbage. And if TF fans, young or old, actually let go of a dollar once in awhile, there'd be more available to buy. I voted Skywarp too by the way.

    Blaster had a pretty good re-release with Perceptor only a few years ago. Do someone new.
