If I could only have one of those, it would be THundercracker. If two, then T-cracker and Thrust. My Classics SS and SW are both whining about not having TC to complete the 3 seekers. I guess Ramjet will have to fill that role. Nice box set though.

I love it. I am happy with all the jets, and I mean really happy!

Bugbite is really a niche character, and a so-so color job. Still needs a gun.

FYI: On the gun note, Cerbros' gun fits Bumblebee perfectly. I was thinking of actually making a mold and makin a few resin copies for Cliffjumper and Bugbite to use. Bumblebee can keep Cerbros' since he doesn't need it, being a head and all. ;)

I'll see how it works out, if the cast works and holds together, I'll make some extras and put up a post for them.

Ah man that Thundercracker looks great looks G1 perfect in jet now for bot mode.Realy wish he was not a con exclusive as I was hopin' to get him out of all the seekers.But I'll admit it it's a very nice set.

HA! I'm just glad I sprang for the non-attendee package so that I could at least get the box set. Can't wait until that baby gets to my doorstep!

I feel your pain. Hasbro hit below the belt on this one for everyone who likes these figures and can not attend, or spare a few hundred dollars for toys that are $10-20 dollars each in their earlier paint schemes.

Looks like I'll have to kitbash to get all the seekers at a reasonable price... Seeing these is like getting a slap in the face, a punch in the gut, and a knee in the pills at the same time...Nice set though.

WOW. Just checked Ebay...that's insane. So... to the folks who ordered....where do you guys live. I'd like to show up to...um...congratulate you on your awesome purchase!

Wow, awesome.

Thrust looks amazing, I can't belive Hasbro went through the trouble of retooling the wings and tail and then didn't even put him out for mass retail.

God damn you Hasbro :MAD:
