I sent mine back right after opening it because Jetstorm's package looked like a boxcutter was taken to it (the bubble was jagged-cut all along the top), and Wingblade's was dinged up with the key rattling around the inside of the package. Fedex tracking says their return center just received it, so I'm crossing my fingers they send 2 new ones to me like I requested. I attached a note that in a nutshell lambasted them for using ONE EFFING air pouch for padding in the shipping box (those ultra boxes are HEAVY and one pouch did absolutely nothing). Some people have been really lucky; they got theirs in good condition with NO padding whatsoever in their shipping box so it's really a crap shoot when you order them online...but SO worth it to get them, they are really NICE looking figures (especially Wingblade, that Warthog mold is SWEET)

Now I want Jetstorm...
I'll look for him tomorrow, otherwise I'll use TRU.com.
EDIT:
Does anyone think these will ever be re-released in better colors????
I don't mind them, but they're not that exciting...

But there's one that's only 8 miles away.
I'm gonna look there Monday, and if not, then I'll deal with the shipping charges.
If Wingblade had hands, I'd probably get him.
But I guess maybe I'll get 2 Jetstorms...
Couldn't they have done something to cover his head in the alt. mode????
Anyone have any TRU coupon codes??

I did a rough search for TRU coupon codes when I placed my online order, no avail. However, you can use google checkout (if you are new customer and haven't used it up yet) and save $10. That'd be pretty sweet!
Cheers,

I thought the same thing, to be honest. They look so boring in the pictures. According to the tracking info, mine have just arrived at my house, so I won't see them in person until later, but the figures themselves are very nice. The colors are pretty bland, but maybe live and up close they're better.

I picked up Jetstorm from a local TRU, and I'm still not totally impressed, but I think it is a nice figure.
I couldn't get myself to buy a Wingblade... I can't stand that he doesn't have at least one hand (of some sort) that aren't those guns.
Plus, even though there's a lot going on with his bot mode,
I just don't like it. Especially those feet.
I'll either get another Jetstorm, otherwise I'll feel justified in getting 2 Onslaughts in August.

Well, that's terribly unfortunate for you. I, however, would have kept them. Sounds like the toys were fine inside their shredded boxes and I am far from an MISB collector.
