That price though... ouch.

Also, TWO cobra figures this time around? Sweet!
And also, the Ravage that came with the SDCC set with Baroness. NICE!
That bot is also not a pile of kibble cancer. Impressive!

I find it baffling that they actually include MP Ravage instead of the non-transforming one. So he better be able to store into Soundwave's chest in both modes. And if he can, that will be the last justification I need to pay full price.

CONVERTING RAVAGE FIGURE: Includes a Ravage figure that converts from cassette mode to Jaguar mode in 10 steps. In cassette mode, this figure can fit inside the Soundwave figure’s chest
So unless they're lying I'm going to assume Ravage will fit inside Soundwave and that it also transforms.

It doesn't. That's a Trans Am grill.
And the reason is because the Dreadnoks take their inspiration from the Mad Max films.

By all accounts, the robot mode is pretty bad, but the vehicle mode is pretty good, so worst case I've got my first HISS and o-ring Baroness to go with my GI Joe collection.

Who was it sold through? I ask because a while back it was on sale for $50 and I bought it only to get something completely different.
I don't know if it was the seller playing bait and switch or an honest mistake/incorrect listing.

He said it was on Prime Day.
Meaning from Amazon in on of the two days of sales for Prime members last Tuesday and Wednesday.
I got the leader SS The Fallen for the price of a deluxe this way (counting the 20$ I got from Prime Photos.)

Not everything sold on Amazon as part of Prime Day was actually sold by Amazon. Of the six things I bought at advertised Prime Day prices, only half listed Amazon as the seller.

That's splitting hair because that's still bought at the Amazon site. It's not Target, it's not eBay, it's all the same thing.
Unless there's scammy sellers on Amazon too?

Transformation is inventive with the leg transformation being a real highlight. While I would've preferred Thrasher, it's great to have Zartan and Zarana in the Retro style, maybe we'll see more Dreadknocks? While the initial price might seem a little high, I don't think this set will stick around like the HISS Tank and AWE Striker so you can pay a premium now or a LOT more later.
