    I really wish there had been more maroon instead of black on the alt mode.

    E-bayed mine. Thrust is too good to potentially miss the boat on. If a container of these did indeed get lost at sea there's no guarantee Hasbro is gonna make another run. Damn this guy looks great. Can't wait to complete my Coneheads.

    The sacrifices I make to have the "perfect" G1 collection, haha.

    nice, envious of everyone getting one. i take it there's no online restock, so scalpers are the only way?

    It's JUST starting to hit retail now so I wouldn't sacrifice your wallet to the dark gods of scalperdom quite yet. Hopefully it'll follow the same pattern as other Target TF exclusives and be plentiful and readily available soon as it hits saturation.

    First off, thank you for your service. Second, the whole point of preordering or ordering online was to avoid running arounds stores in person like a maniac, nevermind there is an ongoing pandemic that adds a layer of serious risk on top of the expenditure of time and transportation.

    Got mine the day after Xmas, and overall am very pleased. QC is solid, and while he isn't quite the truly beautiful shade of red that his Generations grandpappy was, his colors are still very nice.

    Same, in fact, I had a little cardiac event pulling him out of the bubble because it popped one of the shoulders and I just knew I had broken him...fortunately it was just the softer chest flexing.

    Phwoar, this is a bit of alright. Dirge will always be my boy but Thrust feels a lot more premium than the other two Coneheads. Thoroughly recommend this one, as a trio they’re much nicer than the basic seekers.

    Found him at a local comic shop. Love him. If you have the other seekers, you know what you are getting. Nothing really new here other than the wings. Still, I'm happy to complete the seeker squad!

    Finally found mine today......only downside is that he’s the lone Conehead.......for now (I remain hopeful I could get the other 2 soonish......maybe once the convention circuit starts up again or if Amazon gets a replenish......)

    Anyone else notice that Thrust lacks the Decepticon Sigil?

    Sandstorm is the "easiest" conehead to get ahold of atm if you need a stand-in for Ramjet.

    He has 4 tampographed insignias. May be hard to see since on black plastic. If you need a hint:

    one each on the bases of the large wings and one each on the tail fins

    So happy Target delivered him today. He's as to be expected. I wish the folded up wings in bot mode could tab into the back, but friction is doing ok for now.

    My Thrust has the same stressed pin problem on the right arm, same as some of other seekers.

    Will it eventually break? How worried should I be?

    A shipping vessel recently lost a (figurative) boatload of containers, some of which belonged to Hasbro.

    I got an extra thrust from a preorder shipped right before I found one in store if anyone needs it. Just PM me.

    Well, Hasbro had containers on that ship but there's no confirmation that they lost any product as of yet, and if they did there's also no available information as to whether or not there was any TF product lost as they have not released public info as of yet that I'm aware of.
