Not quite. It's the deluxe version of Armada Prime, that boasts better articulation, looks and is a targetmaster. Everyone should own one!


Now I'm even happier with it :D .


So you should be!
The only thing he doesn't have over the leader version is size and a trailer, fair tradeoffs imo.

Shame I didn't think like that all those years ago. I never picked up supercon Prime, instead choosing to waste my money on beyblads and yugioh cards.
Oh how foolish.

Sadly, he goes too much now for what he is, and he really isn't high on my list of priorities (much like alternators skids; the last alternator I need to get but never get round to picking up ;P )

Heh, I got my Supercon Prime by accident. Bought a bundle of Armada Skywarp, Prime, their minicons and the Dark Sabre team because I wanted to see what the Armada Seeker mold was like. Well, it was crap. But Prime made up for it. Why, he's almost good enough to not be in Armada!

Afternoon

Anyone seen Wal Mart exclusive Movie Deluxe Jolt or Divebomb in the UK ASDAs?
I have the other five of that set, but cannot find either of those two anywhere round here (NW Cheshire). :sad:

Were they actually released in the UK?! :???:

Half tempted to be going for a sainsburys-hunt for Silverbolt this afternoon - advantage of being off work :-?

Heh - they are ok then...

Jolt = redeco of Cybertron Crosswise and Smokescreen
Divebomb = Redeco of Cybertron Thundercracker

Bit of a nightmare to find - esp as Jolt is a Bugatti Veyron and I would really like :grin:

For some reason they decided to not include Jolt in our release.
Divebomb is about, but you wont find Jolt.

:sad:

Unless you were lucky like me and find one months ago that had been imported!!

:P

sorry have to disagree wholeheartedly. I can think of 7 or 8 deluxes off the top of my head from the movie line that are better than jolt imho. Really does absolutally nothing for me
