Probably. I mean, he's a well-known entity and there's always the Armada mold.ZeroWolf wrote:I wonder, if unicron hadn't been funded, would he still have appeared on the art?
Hopefully people will have settled. And yeah, 2010 "Grappel" definitely suffers from Universe Inferno having been designed before Aaron Archer and his team got the idea of planning retools in advance.JelZe GoldRabbit wrote:If Grapple already stirs up such a discussion I'm dreading the Inferno retool. But I will freely admit retooling Universe Inferno's dedicated pumper truck into a makeshift crane for Grapple was a bit of a bad idea in hindsight.
First.. As others have said, A. he actually is a fan favorite and one who hadn't gotten many CHUG toys and B. There was a design for him ready from PotP (the SIEGE figure shows severally signs of being a hasty conversion from PotP's "Evolution" gimmick to the C.O.M.B.A.T. system). As for what I have to add... Releasing him in the first wave gave more of a Decepticon presence on the shelves.aronjlove wrote:Does anyone know why he was released practically first and in such large quantities?

And between some collectors being salty about the size class and him not having the same kind of flash as Magnus and Galaxy Upgrade Optimus, he's sadly lingered (the restock didn't help). And of course, Shockwave shelfwarming has held back Astrotrain because Astrotrain is also a purple guy.

Pretty sure this has been brought up and probably confirmed, but it does seem that for now Siege and ER are sharing SKUs or DPCI or whatever.
Scanned leader OP and they showed 10 in-stock and 1 in the back. There was about about 8 Shockwaves on the shelf. I'm really shocked ER leaders where even on hand, that might toss the shelf-warmers hold up new stock theory right out the window (but where was AT?). Grapple showed 7 in-stock and one in the back (there was 3 Grapples and 4 Seige Megatrons on the shelf). No deluxes or rampmasters to scan and I didn't bother with the micromasters.
Asked an employee to check in the back and all they came back with was a single Starscream (which wasn't on the shelf). They also sorta kinda confirmed that as far as inventory goes there's no way to tell Siege from ER. They scanned a Siege deluxe and said more was scheduled to arrive next week. I'm not a betting man, but I'd put money on that being ER deluxes. So there you go, but enough talk, I have toys to play with.

Hey Sabr are you able to pull the images out of the article? Seems like they’re locked.
