Overcracker wrote:Question, to those that have TR Perceptor:
Are You getting SS86 P?
Do you see any differences besides the Headmaster gimmick?
Is there enough of an update there for you to get him again?
I never got TR Perceptor, but from what I can tell it does all the same things and has an extra gimmick. Will SS86 Perceptor be worth tracking down?

The chest is certainly shaped more accurately than both the TR version and the Reveal the Shield version:Overcracker wrote:Question, to those that have TR Perceptor:

Personally, that'll be an in-hand decision, just like Kup and Blurr were. I'm leaning towards yes, because he comes with his gun and overall looks a bit cleaner and might hold together better (my TR Perceptor's gotten a bit looser with age), but the faces for SS86 deluxes have mostly been misses for me in hand with Hot Rod being the only deluxe sized figure that looked good to me

If you're on a budget, the TR Perceptor is fine, and will probably become even cheaper used as collectors swap out. I plan to unload mine at the next con I go to.

And almost $58 for a leader. Looks like Deluxe and Leaders went up 3 bucks while the Voyagers only went up $2. Wonder why the difference?
Absolutely not, IDW Perceptor is best Perceptor, this one just looks like the exact same engineering with a more boring coat of paint & lamer gun. If anything, the existence of this new one makes me more disappointed that the TR one didn't have the full comic-accurate head with the giant targeting eye.Overcracker wrote:Question, to those that have TR Perceptor:
