I was obviously a matter of paint budget. SS Sentinel have LOT of paint. Still, I do wonder if it would have been better to cast the whole thing in red plastics and paint key areas in brown/black? I think it would not only have been feasible but it would have been indeed better.

They did that with the DOTM leader if I remember correctly, he was mainly red plastic for the body area.

I've already talked about SS Sentinel but it really is a great figure.

Note that he also specifies it was done for the WFC Trilogy when Jazz was released as a Studio Series figure instead.Hi All! We mixed up the numbers of G2 (1) and G1 (4) to keep it fresh in the alternate universe of War For Cybertron. That way customisers could choose which number they preferred. Jazz has always been a favorite of mine, glad people are excited by this figure.

I like that the retooling was used for the chest/car mode for the movies, and i like the different color pallet, it makes him standout more from the initial release. I really like this mold, I am glad they went for another new one after the TLK/early SS one. They nailed this one.

Yeah I went in there last night and there were 7 SS leader Grimlocks on the shelf. They still have the spots for both the SS and WFC leaders. But yeah I haven't seen SS voyagers in Wallyworld in months. Got plenty of deluxes, though. What they do have voyagers of is Kingdom. 9 Dinobots to be exact. 9. With 1 Primal and 1 Inferno. On my end, it's Target that has been a wasteland for TFs. Nothing new since Christmas.Emerje wrote:Rodimus Prime wrote:If my Wal-Mart still has him this week, I'll be picking him up with my stimmy.
Your Walmart is still selling Leaders? My local stores removed their tags and replaced them with tags for some other unrelated toy line like they did back in 2019. I haven't seen a Leader at Walmart since probably January before the reset. I got my Grimlock from Target. For that matter I haven't seen Voyagers at Walmart in quite some time either, last Voyager I saw there was that SS86 Hot Rod I bought on clearance in February.
