FOC Sky warp?

I distinctly recall hearing that there was a voyager FOC sky warp on the way and thought I saw his picture alternating amongst a slew of others under the toy arena add to the right of the home page.
If this is true when is he to be released and can we expect to see screamer and cracker since theyre simple repaints and they know well soak them up?
Alternatively, since we already have a FOC screamer would it be a safe bet to say its just a matter of time until we see cracker and skywarp made into deluxe figs since theyre simple repaints as well?
There was a FOC skywarp pic on the home page under the toy arena add at one point wasnt there? I watched those pics scroll for ten mins earlier and didnt see it anymore......I hope Im not going insane...

The only fall of Cybertron skywarp that I know of is the Takara TG-18 but it uses the deluxe mold. The is no voyager FoC mold that I am aware of. This is the last news post we had about Skywarp. He is shown with images of voyager Blaster so maybe that's where you got the voyager Skywarp idea from.

You would think that getting all three seekers would be a no brainer but it is not always the case. In the DOTM toyline we only got Starscream and Thundercracker deluxe figures with Skywarp remaining Takara exclusive.

In TFPrime both Skywarp and Thundercracker remain Takara only.

Hey Hasbro........do some more impressing stuff and give us Skywarp and Thundercracker from FOC line too.......please, of course.

I would REALLY like to fill my collection's gaping Skywarp gap with this mold, but I'm not willing to pay crazy Takara prices. XD Please Hasbro~?

Ideally I'll have Energon deluxe 'Energon' Starscream (the G1 deco) soon so I can get Classics screamer off my shelf. I just don't dig that mold, luckily I paid basically nothing for it. :lol:

This is what I was thinking and the answer is never. Correct?.
Granted I havnt been it the game long, but I still had a hell of a time getting my seeker collection together and as I read up on seeker history I learned that they have always been a bit difficult to procure.
I just figured it to be a no brainer that hasbro would recolor the existing mold and offer all three over the next several months or so.

I think after the TRU commemorative seekers there was the classics, but after that i don' recall any series having all three readily available, molded from the same source. Of course there's G1, but i'm not all too familiar with the others.

All 3 Seekers simultaneously available? In the same wave, it would have be Machine Wars (Imagine that), but for the same toy line, it would have to be Cybertron.

While it's true we've had Thrust, Dirge and Thundercracker in the first Generations line, what helped to sell them (to kids and parents) is their distinctive wings. Were Starscream, Thundercracker and Skywarp available simultaneously, parents would think it's the same jet thus character, just in three different decos and tell the kids they can only have one. This isn't 1984, anymore.
Top 5 Priorities:

1) BW Neo X-7 Elphaorpha
2) BW II VS-18 Powerhug vs. Autocrusher
3) Universe 2003 Night Slash Cheetor
4) RiD Landfill (regular, not the yellow)
5) BW Convobat (red) & Megalligator (purple)

Also looking for any clear Arms Microns, like Shadow (Gora & R.A.), Hellflame and Shining (O.P. and R.A.).

Yeah Im not to familiar with G-1 either, so Im not sure if they released them all three around the same time or not.
I agree with jelze though about parents thinking seekers may be too similar to buy three same looking toys. I was kind of hoping they would just release one per wave though ya know?
Aslo mr sinnertwin, Could you elaborate on the TRU exclusives? Were they G-1 or a newer classics mold? Also, Were they together, or seperate?
tHIS IS THE FIRST iVE HEARD OF THESE FIGURES AND WISH TO LOOK THEIR PICS UP.
Thanks man! ;)
