Great score, Kanra.
I am still awaiting mine with the box.

Thanks to Mr Seibertron himself, I got one more Overcharge and the S7 Aligatimus!
Just ignore the giant lump on my head that UPS gave me with their fees sledgehammer. 8-}

My Overcharge trio is finally complete!

Why 3 copies? That mold is a failure as a triple changer. Unless the jet mode was upgraded?

That's expensive troop building. But I guess if he's got the moolah, more power to him. I figured he got 3 to display 1 in each mode.

Fitting for a figure named "Overcharge".

In-universe, though, Overcharges are mass-produced drones built and operated by the Quintessons, per the bio of the original Overcharge toy from 2005. Before he acquired his individual identity, Blitzwing used to be an Overcharge, as part of his cartoon backstory, explained in the pack-in manga that came with Takara Legends Blitzwing, which thus explains how and why he remembered the Quintessons in "Five Faces of Darkness" while everyone else didn't.

Nice trivia! And yeah, even if the tank have a dik and the jet have cancer growths L. Blitzwing is fun to mess around with. Plus knowing that Overcharges are Quints drones, I thought having Blitzwing leading Overcharge troopers would make for a rad display.

I got my Rathalos Prime from Pulse yesterday. Man that wingspan is impressive.

He was recently rereleased since he was so impossible to find the first time around.
I also saw him at Target but passed. Kinda regretting it now... Is he a retool of an existing figure or brand new?
Extreme retool of Studio Series 86 Blurr but to the extent that he feels like his own mold.

After reading this I felt compelled to go back when I got mine on eBay and what I paid vs waiting to see him on the Target pegs TODAY! :BANG_HEAD:

It was back on Jan 26th days after this current administration. :BOOM:

I definitely got hosed paying close to $50....but he's a well crafted "retool" as previously stated and worth every hard earned dollar of mine....'nuff said!!! :VEHI:

Good start to the morning!

A shame that this Megatron needs to be I a huge Leader box in order to not be confused with a voyager. A voyager box would have sufficed. Same thing for AoE Optimus.
