    Good for those who missed these molds, but a swing and a miss for me. Not different enough to the originals (not to mention I prefer Skywarp's original silver) and like @RickyLeeSTF, I'm not a fan of the smirking faces. If they featured a neutral expression, I might be tempted.

    Oh well! Bring on Hound!

    Not having individual expressions is straight up a downgrade from the originals, hard pass.

    Yeah hard pass, very weak they just slapped a Starscream face on them instead of giving them new ones.

    I actually like the new toon repaints, especially the matching intake colors but the cockpit looks terrible. Might swap them out with the original gold.

    I’m always all about that toy deco, but unless they darken up the blue on TC I’ll prob pass on the EX this time.

    Edit: they’re also missing all the tampo goodness, def interested in EX versions of both those dudes if NA comes correct. Which they usually do IMO.

    i feel that. i am pretty much over with the NA seekers. what they need to do is the tetra jets.

    the legends game is sorely missing them.

    now if they did that i would be all over that like white on rice.

    Ugh, I’ve been waiting for a toy-based NA Thundercracker in nice dark metallic greenish-blue, with a black face, gold eyes, tampos, etc… but instead they release an even toonier toon repaint with Starscream’s face? A hearty no-thank-you from me.

    Not sure what they were thinking reusing a face sculpt that's very clearly Starscream.

    I wasn't particularly thrilled with them following the Earthrise faces last time either.

    One of the interest of the new Starscream was his very Stascream-y face with the smirk. Now everyone becomes Starscream ! Nope, Newage, I’ll keep my old ones, who happen to have different faces.
    Next stop : Starscream-y rainmakers !

    I'd love TETRA jets :)  But then again I want so much more. Jumpstarters, Omnibots, Mini Spies, Powerdashers... NA has years of characters to work on!

    yeah, i cant speak for anyone but myself. but i don't see any of that happening or selling well.

    tetra jets would fly off the shelf just as fast as the g1 seekers did.

    If they are like Lucifer H13C, there are two faces in the box. A smirking one and a normal one.

    Huge fail!!! Literally the one thing Skywarp needed was purple shoulders.

    slight new color shades don't do anything to make him accurate when literally his pallet differed from SS and TC by having his shoulders be same color as lower arms.
