Was thinking about making my own but i figure as soon as i do that Hasbro will put one out, i did searches and looked on the other sites and can't find any rumors about Hasbro making Movie Skywarp, anyone else heard anything?

I kind of doubt it since we haven't heard anything yet. Plus, there are already the three versions (of course, you've got four) too. Adding a fourth might just make the others sell even slower. But hey, you never know.

I really doubt it beause the movie line is at an end there just about to start the animated series either next month or the month after. The only movie toys left to ship are the all spark assortment.

I was actually going to ask this same question. I haven't heard anything either. As for the jets selling even slower... I don't know about that. In fact... the only reason why I haven't bought Thundercracker is because I want to make sure they actually release Skywarp too. If they do... I will buy them both ASAP.

Few kids like to buy the same thing twice.

As Arron Archer said to me, in a confused tone, "The seekers aren't selling?"

Skywarp would sell like delicious hot cakes, just like a Classics Thundercracker would have.

Though it remains to be seen if the production costs would warrent the situation.

bet: Botcon! How I loathe exclusives. Not that I want Skywarp anyway.

I passed up Thundercracker when I saw him at Wally World yesterday...the head sticks out even more than the chicken head. And since the head is black, it looks like the plane is in the middle of taking a crap.

I support the idea of a FAB Skywarp recolor of Starscream, though I'm sure that comment would only serve to piss someone off, re-coloring already-cheapened FABs or something.

You are stronger than me. Thanks a lot for that, uh, illustrative comment -- now every time I look at him I'm going to think of TF incontinence.

The little headshot on the front of the box makes it look like the head is slightly different from the G1 Starscream repaint, but they look identical to me. Oh well...

noone has ever called me strong when it comes to resisting purchasing a Transformer (least of which my wife) so I appreciate the...errr...compliment?

I hope they don't release a Skywarp, cuz then I might have to buy it! I've "resisted" Starscream, G1 Starscream, and Thundercracker because I don't care much for the mold. But I love Skywarp enough that I might have to get it....

Well, maybe that was a misstep by Hasbro because the G1 colored Starscreams are still available at a lot of Targets in our area. As are the Thundercrackers at Walmarts. My only point was, with three choices already out there and no word of one yet, it's highly unlikely.

Agreed-and so does Hasbro. That's why they've given you three versions already.

And then there's where I live where Starscream hasn't been seen in months, G1 has been sold out for about a week, and I have yet to see a Thundercracker (except for the one the guy had at the checkout line). Skywarp would be gone the minute it hit the shelf...

And where is that?

Your better of buying a Thundercracker or G1 recolor and doing it yourself. I doubt we'll see him, although I'd personally embrace the idea.

i think im going to do one even if they come out with one. I like my sunstorm better than hasbo's repaints. the next time i see one in a store i'm going to get it.

Do you have a gallery of you Sunstorm somewhere?

Unless the somehow work him into the Allspark line, he'll probably be a Botcon Exclusive.

I already repainted my Starscream (the normal one not the G1 repaint). Now I just need Thundercracker and starscream's posse will be complete besides Sunstorm anway but they never showed him in the TV show so I'm probably not going to do him

you got a pic of your repaint

A repainted Movie Starscream into Skywarp would be the only way Hasbro could get me to buy that horrible mold.
And even then, only if he is painted more akin to Classics Skywarp than Cybertron Skywarp.

Too true. I really don't like that mold but I would actually think about buying it if it were Skywarp from the movie SS. That G1 and TC head is just so bad which is a shame-Hasbro had a chance to do something different (better) but went the wrong direction. But that's just my opinion though... and we all know about opinions.

So that's Sunstorm. How come he's.. uh.. peachy?
