What is going on with the two-tone yellow? Is the figure really going to be like that? :-(

Compare that to BBTS's price of 250, and there's an obvious winner.

This figure makes absolutely no sense to me. Starscream was a nice touch, but another seeker with a different paint job and twice the price?! come on Takra you can find better ways to rape our wallets

.

I'd love to see a new mold MP Megatron to go in scale with all these guys since MP-08 (and please do something about his skinny feet

) is that too much to ask for?

My first impression of this release is that's it's just straight up silly. Especially with SS coronation get up just makes it even less desirable. Not to mention that i'm sooooo bored to death with anything "seeker" that i'm now biased anyways.

I wonder if this is going to be one of those figures most people ignore in the beginning. Then in a year the price soars and everyone wants it.

why are people buying this again? the igear version is much cheaper and has better features and fixes all the originals design faults

so whats the point in this release aside from screwing fools out of there money because they want a branded toy?

159$ ISN'T a soaring price for toy toy already? I learn something every day.

Compared to $400+, no.
