Don't get me wrong, MP Thundercracker is a great representation of his original look, but that was then, this is now, and CWL Thundercracker is a fantastic representation of a modern up-to-date 21st century look.

That's a fair call BUT ... just like the Datsun boys, the Seeker jets are their own characters, they may share a mold but they're very much individual.
Buy them all. You'll be kicking yourself when they bring Skywarp out. (And they'd better bring Skywarp out)

You'd be happy to hear then that someone has found skywarp on a computer. But since there was never photo evidence, the rumour doesnt hold much water.
Also, I do have a question about this mold being great for seekers. The one part that throws me off is the wings in robot mode. I am used to one set of wings extending out his sides on the back. But with this mold, the wings are more of a canopy that keep going upwards past his shoulders. I didnt mind that for Jetfire but for the seekers, it looks a bit off. Granted, I only saw that when I compared it to the MP. How do you feel about the new wing arrangement? And you dont miss the vents on the side of his head?

Seeing the modern Leader CW TC next to the MP is quite a comparison. Sure, CW is built cheaply, but the overall bot is BIGGER and beefier! And for 1/3 or 1/4 of the price of a Japanese MP!
I don't think I'll buy TC, but you are sure I'll be buying starscream!

The vents on the sides of the head defining traits of the seeker head, I was kinda sad when I saw they weren't there.

But you're looking at him from a nostalgia perspective.
Masterpiece Thundercracker is the Seeker mold of the 20th century. It's the definitive rendering of his cartoon self.
You can have that look in multiple ways, we have already, Robot Masters, Classics ... it's been done.
Now look at CWL Thundercracker again. Remembering what century you're living in. It's still Thundercracker, but he's better designed, his look is updated, yes it's different but it's a GOOD different.
I LOVE this mold for the Seekers. Jetfire can just with the rest of the so-called CW "outcasts". This is his second chance and he's once again failed.
