I know. Makes me seriously reconsider my repainting strategy...Thrust was the only seeker I had as a kid, and he looks just as awesome now as he did then.

...anybody getting an extra bagged set?

How much money do I have in the back now?

Another reason to switch my savings from Wachovia to PFCU...

That was the one I was waiting for and he looks pretty close to how he was supposed to look in the G1 series, only this time he has decent articulation. I'm taking my form ovre to the fax machine now.

I WANT!

Why make these exclusives? Hasbro would make a mint from these seekers. Such a shame.

Geez, am I the only one that thinks the alt mode looks aweful? I mean yay to the robot mode and color scheme - I think that is amazing but the jet looks stubby and the wings look malformed in my opinion...?

Now this fanboy is freaking glad I sent in my registration form and paid for the non-attendee package!! :grin:

Sweet Jesus I called this one.
"Great minds appreciate alike! I would bet you that we get some retooling for Thrust. For all of the Hasbro bashing I hear we all know that Hasbro is well aware of what G1 Thrust looks like. I can easily imagine the (at least in our eyes) simple retooling of Screamer's wings and tailfins to create Thrust. For a convention set exclusive I bet money on Hasbro giving us a good recognizable interpretation of Thrust and not being lazy as some have suggested. :-P " from my post in the Botcon Thundercracker thread!

Holy!!! Curse you Hasbro. I really wish they had made these as a general release. I can't afford the con set. :-x Well I've said my 2cents now back to lurking. >.>;

Perfect Thrust love the look and really looking forward to the set.

Like I said definately worth trying to get the Iacon non-attendee package rather than overpaying on eBay.
