New mold or Scourge repaint?
Main line or Selects or not at all?
I'd totally pay leader price for this voyager and some Alpha Trion-themed accessories. And I mean literally this one, same mold and paint job. Good stuff
Great idea! And Hasbro makes more money with all the repaints they sell. The only problem is that there might not be much of any demand for a silver Ark. Repaints like Black Zarak have history and media. While you are technically right, I can't imagine there is much demand for a silver Ark. A $30 voyager on selects I could see all day long. But a $150 Titan, I wouldn't think so. Good pull though... The more I look at it the more I want it... but it is so similar. I guess I could see it for like SDCC... hmmm...AllNewSuperRobot wrote:As far as variants go, do you think one could be in the pipeline for Ark? A redeco with a Supreme head could work as an Animated homage. But how about one for the silver/white colour scheme of the comic book Ark?

If it isn't: A Starship, a Base or a City. It shouldn't be considered a "Titan Class" robot.

I believe the next item of Selects overall which should be coming out is Transmutate. I hope to see a charge/shipping notice soon

Just checked again on Pulse, and looks like the date changed sometime in the last day or so to 9/1/21 . Yet, I'm seeing other U.S. based sellers on eBay that already have it.
That's because he's a normal Siege figure in Japan. Only Hasbro is selling him as a Takara Selects figure.aronjlove wrote:I finally received Takara Selects Soundblaster, and while he had an outer Takara Selects black box the inner box looks like the regular Siege 35th Anniversary Soundblaster box

Japan never got the Decepticon-badged one. The Takara Merc-badged one is their counterpart release to the Hasbro Con-badged one, which Hasbro then decided to release back over in here as a Takara Selects release when it wasn't one over in Japan.aronjlove wrote:Sabrblade wrote:That's because he's a normal Siege figure in Japan.

I thought that was the Decepticon-badge Soundblaster, not Mercenary-badge Soundblaster?
