I would have preferred the new V.A.M.P. as Roadbuster. But that Skystriker is...epic. :ic$:

Also, I'm getting an awesome-ness boner from that Baroness w/Ravage.

Wow... I never wanted one of these things before but I want this so bad.... How much should one expect to pay?

I'm just blown away by the G.I. Joe Skystriker as Jetfire with booster pack, can't wait to put my minibots on it. =X

Sell me the Jetfire! :grin:

Well that is kind of hard to tell but I can tell you right now it will not be cheap >:oP

unless you get him from the SDCC2013 convention itself....I can already see this exclusive box set going for well over $200-$250 on ebay, I was lucky enough to get my SDCC 2012 Shockwave H.I.S.S. tank for a 'moderate' price of $180 and I had to look for months for getting it at a decent price.

I will do my best to get this exclusive even if I have to pay a bit more because I can't attend SDCC2013 :sad:

Another cool set with some interesting add ons.

FINALLY........a decent looking Ravage. It would be great if it could transform :-(

but at least it looks good.

I'd usually be angry about Tranformers being exclusives, but they don't transform, so I could care less.

We haven't heard yet which TF is going to be the SDCC exclusive of the year yet, so keep your anger ready for release.

I think the rumours were saying it would be a highly-detailed Metroplex?

Even if that's true, we're getting one in retail anyways that's accurate enough to the source material, so again, I could care less.
What would really get me would be if it's Breakdown, Jet Vehicon, or something else Hasbro doesn't want to give the general populace.

I didn't recall it until just now, but during a Cobra training exercise in Countdown for Zartan, Storm Shadow demonstrates that "The ninja, himself, is a weapon!" (I'm probably misquoting a tad) by jumping around a tank and striking it in various spots that turn out to be its fracture points, causing it to fall apart seconds later. In other words, despite the term not being koined for another 4 years, Storm Shadow apparently knew Metallikato...or maybe Crystalocution. This begs the question of whether Bludgeon has some connection to the Arashikage, and if we're lucky, the fiction accompanying these exclusives will give us an answer.

Yes, I know it'll likely play off Marvel continuities more than the cartoon, but still...
