    @computron179 Be funnier if instead of a ROFLstomp Optimus was drop-kicking one of the Cons into orbit... :D  *Jackie Gleason voice*"Pow, Alice! To the moon!"

    Sometimes I'll pre-order cases if we actually want all or most of the figures in a wave. If there's a figure we don't want from a case, then we'll just sell or trade in at a local comics store.

    The 1st waves for ER, though, make me not want to order cases. The Voyager case is 2 Grapples and 1 Starscream. So, expect to see Grapple shelfwarming and people complaining about Starscream. Really don't want Astrotrain and that would be a harder sell after ER sees mass release.

    Found the Earthrise Micromasters at my local Target.

    As a 42-year-old man, I am far too amused by a Transformer having the name Daddy-O.

    Can't wait for a review for Earthrise Astrotrain. Still wondering whether to get the Siege or Eearthrise.

    Um. They're literally the same figure. Just different packaging. I promise.

    I can't agree more. I haven't been this excited for a deluxe since Impactor. As soon as I see a Wheeljack in stores, I' picking him up ASAP.

    As others have said, far as we know it's the same figure. However in toy collecting I have seen restocks be subtley different colours, though negligible to me personally.

    Equally the first run is sometimes perfect, or sometimes crap and the second fixes that. Luck of the draw.

    Siege Starscream chest was fixed but at a cost of looser nullrays in his re release.
