$30 ain't too bad. WalMart would've probably charged $40.

We've concluded that this pic is just a placeholder and that the actual Demolishor mold will be white with dirty treads, right?

Yea, the pic states that there's added redeco, so it should just be a place holder. I did notice something else there though, I scrolled down to see some related items, and of note is the In Stock listing of the BB & SW two pack for 19.99.

White Dev = cool.
White Dev with baby-poo-colored treads = gross.

Here.s hoping Hasbro takes the criticism to heart and decides to drop the brown threads that nobody liked. And I know its not gonna happen but it would be cool if the ice cream truck displays "suck my popsicle" like the movie.

That's what the toy soldiers are saying. Also Ice Cream Twins Hurp and Durp are supposed to have the rust and other stuff from the movie that the single card left out.

It's best to assume every link I post is NSFW, and every post I make is just me taking the piss.

As much as I love all three of these molds, I think I'd rather repainting the extras i alreadu have myself. Money is tight is all, and I think and I think I will be more satisfied with mysef in the long run.

However, if these show up at a reasonable price on ebay, I might jump at them, although I have a better chance on having my diabetes magically cured overningt.

Sometimes, just checking one more store isn't worth it

Definate pass as i don't care for either of these molds.

The only reason why i ever would buy any of these characters again would be if they made a leader sized Demo.
