That's kind of what I am seeing, the grey on Skywarp looks "cheap" to me.

The big "Not Final" stamped across the image may address that.

I have a full set of Takara and Hasbro seekers, and I may sell off 3 of the legit ones to get the kibble free versions these guys are selling.

I stopped collecting MP figures because I prefer scale sizes. However I do own the Hasbro MP Starscream, Skywarp, and Takara MP Ghost Starscream. If I was still collecting MP I would gladly buy all 6 of these. This is a prime example of where I-Gear took it to Hasbro and beat them at their own game. Big props to I-Gear.

I am so happy that iGear is actually giving us what fans have always wanted, MP Seekers.
Wow, I sure hope they make a MP scale Grimlock or Hot Rod next, because those would be totally sweet and HasTak arent making thems.

Maybe Igear can recolor the MP Rodimus toy in Car robots speedbreaker colors. maybe put a face plate on the rodimus inner head.

I also don't see the point in these 3 igear season one/1984 trio seekers.

I already have the liscensed hasbro MP seekers that walmart released for super cheap prices. I was even a cheap meiser held on to my recipts & kept returning them to pay cheaper clearance prices. I own 2 MP Skywarps that I paid around $15 each on deep clearance at walmart.
I own 2 mp walmart hasbro starscreams that's i paid on clearance for around $30 each.

Sorry,I don't feel compelled to spend over $100 for the igear versions of the 1984/season one seekers.

Sure I don't have any MP Thundercrackers. but i'm willing to wait it out & see if hasbro releases this one day. if not,no big loss,I already have skywarp & starscream & it's just a recolor anyways.

Seriously?

I never saw any MP Skywarps around here, let alone for $15(!).

I never saw any MP Starscreams marked down either.

No sale here.

1. I already have the HasTaks, and don't actually like the seekers enough to have to have these too

2. I'm generally a big supporter/buyer of third party stuff but come on....these three are so far over the line they've come back around the other side of the globe to tap on HasTak's shoulders and blow raspberrys at them.
