I reviewed him. I too was excited to get him, but in hand he's less stellar than I thought he'd be. That's not to say he's bad - he's not. But he's not worth all this fuss. LOL

I have it now in hand and he's as good as I expected. I really like the simple twist on the classic transformation with the spider head.
Well, for me the fuss comes from being a completionist. I love Beast Wars and I never got the figures in the 90s, so when it was revealed that they were getting updates in Kingdom, I nearly hit the ceiling and I was determined to get the complete season 1 cast, in scale nonetheless. Only Tarantulas and Inferno remain. On top of that, Tarantulas is my 3rd favorite Predacon, after Megatron and Inferno. And his figure looks great. I'll accept it being only passable for actual play value and transformation.sol magnus wrote:william-james88 wrote:sol magnus wrote:Rodimus Prime wrote:It just feels weird being like this about getting a figure.

I want to reiterate I don't think he's bad...I just somehow thought he'd be 'better' which was based on nothing in particular.

Its kind of like Basic Instinct, but not in a good way...
Goddammit, now I can't unsee it.

Seriously? THe entire underside of the cockpit and front quarter of the plane is hollow? I should have watched the reviews but the OCD in me would have forced me to get him anyways....he'll just stay in bot mode.
On a side note...am I the only one who thinks that mold would be perfect for Armada Thrust?

If that fails however, if someone could please post the Amazon link to Wild Rider that would be appreciated. I'm sure its currently unavailable to pre-order (unlike the rest of wave 2), which is why it doesn't show up on search, but any help would be appreciated.

At least in my area (obviously can't speak for o.supreme), the brick-and-mortar prices for the main retail waves have lagged behind in price increases compared to online. While exclusives like Buzzworthy Silverstreak and the Velocitron Deluxes are still going up at $24.99 online and in-store pre-tax, the retail Legacy (and I think also Studio Series, but I haven't bought an SS figure in a bit so I could be wrong) Deluxes are still at $22.99 because they only rose to that point when Legacy started, not when Hasbro implemented that change mid-Kingdom. If I'm buying multiple figures per wave, I would absolutely rather buy from the cheaper option since that'll add up, and unless figures are on-sale online (like Amazon Warehouse deals) the cheaper option ends up being brick-and-mortar 9/10 times even taking into account free shipping.william-james88 wrote:I have a question though, you said online is more expensive, but isn't shipping free at a particular threshold for most places?

I feel the same way about Marvel Legends only having 1 peg while those retro style 3 inch marvel figures get more space. Nan talk about toys no one asked for.
That's at Walmart where there are no reaction figures.
But at TRU, it's like your situation, way more space dedicated to super 7 than Legacy Deluxe Class.
I have a question though, you said online is more expensive, but isn't shipping free at a particular threshold for most places? Like Target and Amazon. But yes, if the goal is also to get something earlier then brick and mortar can't be written off.
