    I'm glad the actual figure has the black on the knee complete.

    Nice. That's how I want Sunstorm to look.

    Too bad it's a) a TFcon exclusive, b) I never really liked the mould, and c) I'm no longer interested in MP seekers.

    Still, perhaps, if I can get it without paying through the roof just for the fun of it.

    Not sure it’ll be a tfcon exclusive forever though, like the other 2

    Maybe they could just drop a couple loose fingers in a baggie for us tho. There's always one or two bouncing around the box :/

    Np

    Why are you quoting me just to write something pessimistic? Not negating your right to opinion but you can do that without it showing in my notifications.

    Because if you have one, you probably know somebody, and could casually drop that into the suggestion box. My comment wasn't pessimistic, it was pragmatic.

    I like the look of this except for the null rays being two separate colors. I really wish the guns were entirely the darker orange color.

    I don’t know why MakeToys continually does this with the seeker repaints. Other than the purple one they have done it. Maybe it is just me but it drives me nuts.

    TFSOURCE has put all the rest in their website before, if you watch their Facebook they'll announce it. And price should be approximately $160ish.

    Yea I saw they had 2 other colors listed for pre-order, which made me wonder if they might not have this one. Good heads up though, I'll keep an eye on their FB.

    I actually like this mold OK (except the way the calves hold together) but the prices are kinda nuts to me.

    Im still considering it, but for $160 a pop I might wait and see if DS returns with recolors.
