    It was nice already having this one ordered and tagged as shipped.

    I'm not going to lie I'm absolutely impressed by the amount of Seekers sold today.

    That's really great to hear! More money in Maketoys' pocket to help them get back up and moving.

    There's always the MP-11 mold Sunstorm, I have one of those and it's actually pretty nice, probably the best figure to come out of the MP-11 mold.

    Here's hoping we'll get a Masterpiece Slipstream soon...

    Even though the mode is somewhat dated its more than adequate to help fill in the gaps of the B and C list seekers. I really like the stands they include with the new seekers.

    No, friend. The best selling ones by far were Nova Swarm, Meteor, and of all thing Skycrow. The three of those couldn't stay stocked on the table.

    The one that really didn't move was EndGame and that's frankly because the other two aren't out. If all three coneheads were there I would bet my savings that they'd all have outsold everything else by a wide margin. It's all people asked about.

    Baba doesn't show full price but ShowZ does

    [Pre-Order] MakeToys MTRM-EX03 Nova Swarm Sunstorm

    [Pre-Order] MakeToys MTRM-EX01 Acid Swarm Acid Storm

    Btw, this is the 3rd (or 4th as I can't remember if Acid Storm is a TFCON exclusive) time that a Maketoys TFcon exclusive is made available at ShowZ (and some other Chinese retailers), other than exclusively on TFsource

    I really wish they hadn't used those stupid asymmetrical hands.
