If this is true I can't say I'm surprised.

Poor old Thundercracker hasn't seen much love lately, has he?

MP-03 screamer was more of a Thundercracker colour than what screamer was

True enough. Not that I'm fussed, I recently acquired my first ever Thundercracker.

MP Thundercracker will be a Transformers Convention in Japan exclusive..... :lol:

I like Skywarp but the colour scheme looks wrong especially in Plane mode. Why can't they get MP seekers right?

2 seakers down, at least 5 more to go, plus black redeco and ghost of starscream...

by **Bonger** » Tue Apr 17, 2007 5:33 am

2 seekers? Are we counting the first as Thundercracker, Starscream, or neither?

Yah, I'm counting the first as a filler background character and fully expect a screamer and thundercracker next.

by **Rainbow Starscream** » Tue Apr 17, 2007 5:34 am

I expected this would happen eventually. But that's all right though, because Skywarp is my favorite seeker. Rock on.

I think Hasbro are likely to issue Starscream in the desired colours at some point.

I dunno, with the movie and all, they seem to have lost interest in anything else. And then they have the new line coming out after the movie.

Unfortunately, I think the Classics, Reissues, Alternators are all gonna fall by the wayside. Hopefully Tomy/Takara will not let us down though.

True. We can hope, though, that the movie reignites the spark in some long-dormant fans who will long for more 'classic' Transformers as opposed to the movie versions. This may spur Hasbro into reviving either Classics or Reissues.

Ah if even just to produce the reissues for Ramjet and Thrust that we are sorely missing along with alt. ironhide and ratchet.

Ironhide and Ratchet are oft neglected. This saddens me.

Yes, wth is up with that. They were MAJOR characters till the movie. OK, so Ironhide was a minivan. Is this just minivan bias?

My MP Prime needs an Ironhide Alt. to call old friend!

Dodge Ram Prime was perfect for Ironhide, I thought. It really was a missed opportunity.

Have you seen the Nemesis Prime to Trailbreaker kitbash idea on Reprolabels. I was thinking of attempting that.

I was thinking, they could easily do Ironhide and Ratchet with a Ford SUV.

I haven't seen that, but I'll look into it. A Ford SUV would work for Ratchet and Ironhide, I think.
