    On a different note, I am going to sell the unopened, MISB Brunt I bought, but never felt like opening. Please PM me if you are interested. I am just asking retail price($19.99), plus shipping. I have also listed it on Ebay.
    Thanks.

    It's from the Alternator. Fits beautifully.

    The hand is from the KFC MP Sideswipe set.

    EBay a shop in Taiwan had it. Snatched the last one about a week ago. It got here ridiculously f as t took less than 6 days.

    I own that Slipstream and its honestly. Ine if my favorites it's a little fiddly but a bit of floor wax kept it all together.

    Update with Thundercracker:
    IMG_1008.JPG

    Both shoulder ports are a little loose. Right elbow port, however, is now extremely tight. Had a hard time pegging the null ray in. Right ankle tilt is fixed on this one. Did not have the arm pegging into leg issue that Skywarp had. Chest plate stability is a mixed bag. Better than Starscream and Skywarp but not as good as Red Wing. The left chest plate connection in particular keeps coming off. I may end up pinning this one too.

    Otherwise, all figures are great. Red Wing is still best due to chest plate stability.

    Was taking pics of my collection and with the anticipation of Siege Lancer, Mirage, Smokescreen, Ratchet, & Bluestreak coming out within in the coming months I hope in the sequel series we get a Blaster(voyager), Grapple, & Inferno; then I'd finally have every Autobot from the first two Season in Generations form complete.

    Same goes for the Decepticons, after Skywarp & Thundercracker come out if we can get the Coneheads in the sequel series I'd finally be done with Season One & Two for both sides and could happily take a break on Transformers collecting.

    Man, after seeing that Rain Makers pack, I may have to reconsider the Seeker mold.
    I'd still prefer them to be F-15's, and I still LOVE the Classics mold, but one of the main reasons I decided against the Siege Seeker figures was lack of numbers.

    In the Classics mold I have the three originals, coneheads, Sunstorm, Acid Storm, and a purple clone. I wasn't going to change to a new mold unless I could replace all, or most of those.
    Now it looks like the only one left out is the purple clone, assuming they do the coneheads.
    If I had some guarantee / confirmation that they were going to do the coneheads (after seeing that Rain Maker pack) I'd be ordering some Siege Seekers right now.

    There was a small batch leaked out in the wild earlier. I didn't grab it at that time because my son didn't like Seekers until more recently.

    I got this from Entertainment Earth (their free shipping is really bad; pay the extra for real shipping). They only have it as a pack with Megatron when I bought it. That's OK because I can easily trade Megatron in locally at comics / toy stores.

    Have you looked underneath the feet of your Seekers? I ask because 1 ankle tilt on the Starscream I bought would not stay in place. I looked under the feet and found that they're numbered, they're supposed to be numbered "1" and "2". Both of mine were numbered "2" so they were either 2 left feet, or 2 right feet. Promptly returned it for a refund.

    If 1 of your Seekers has an ankle that doesn't stay tilted into place, I have a feeling it may have 2 of the same foot.

    No, that's not it. Looked at feet of all 4 Seekers here. There are 4 total numbers and each bot has a different combination of numbers:

    Bot name: Left foot, Right foot

    Starscream: 1, 3 (ankle tilt issue)
    Skywarp: 1, 4 (no ankle tilt issue)
    Red Wing: 3, 4 (ankle title issue)
    Thundercracker: 3, 2 (no ankle tilt issue)
