They're out there! The former room mate of my father's brother's cousin's nephew said he had one!

Hotrod kup and scourge have reviews from primevsprime and none of them have the ports for the weaponizers
Were that they case, they'd use a certain kanji to denote it as such. The "Deluxe" part is in its name.Emerje wrote:Missed this line when I read it before.Sabrblade wrote:Of note is that the Centurion Drone has been renamed "Deluxe Centurion Drone".

I think in this case they're using deluxe to mean "premium" to show it's more than just a figure unless they start calling him "Deluxe Centurion Drone" in comics or something.

Yeah, that's the reason I'm passing on ER Bluestreak. I like the mold but I'm holding out for a Selects blue Bluestreak.Nemesis Destron wrote:It's too bad we can't get a Bluestreak with paint and colors like Combiners Bluestreak.

Scourge has two unnecessary ports on the sides of his forearms and two on the sides of his lower legs down by his ankles, one on the bottom of each foot as well as one on his back. You might also be able to maneuver his backpack in such a way as to utilize the two side ports he had in vehicle mode.
Kup is lacking by comparison with only one under each foot. However, both of his arms as well as his legs can separate at the bicep/thigh swivels similar to a Weaponizer. So you can add pieces in between his arms and legs to wacky effects.
Hot Rod has one port under each foot and a pair of ports on the backs of his legs. He also has a 5mm peg on his left hand if you put his hand away back into the forearm.

Hope you're right... I guess maybe I should be more worried about getting ahold of Netflix Soundwave.

Which means you got the two pack with Ironhide, right? How do you feel about that? I kinda want Prowl but not Ironhide so much, so them coming together (and costing more for it) isn't too appealing for me. I'm kinda confused as to why they did the two figures like this anyway...? I guess it's supposed to be because they aren't exactly a part of the "main" Earthrise toyline...or something...? I'm confused.

I wouldn't doubt if after the ER and SS86 lines I take another lengthy collecting hiatus.
Sowndwave76 wrote:My advice would be to get the two pack...
You could probably sell Ironhide if you really end up not liking him.
If you're okay with getting $20 for him, I'd feel pretty confident that someone would buy him for that price. Then you've spent $20 on Prowl like you would for any other deluxe.
I still have the receipt from when I bought mine full price. I wonder if I can return it, get my money back and buy it again at half price. My Target has 3 or 4 of them. And what does this do to eBay prices?D-Maximal_Primal wrote:Earthrise seekers showing up half off
Don't think it's been out for that short a time. However, like the Clones 2-packs and the Rainmaker 3-pack from SIEGE before it... it's a unique inventory item with its own pricetag, so it's probably easier for them to mark it down.o.supreme wrote:ER Target Exclusive Villains pack, super hard to find, only been out for a short time-Clearance
Siege Leader Shockwave,, multiplies like rabbits, out for almost 2 years,...nah...keep em around at full price.

...I had an ugly thought: That clearance stickers can't mark down stuff independently of the computer after all. Which would definitely explain the problem with Shockwave. Because they certainly don't want to mark down the shiny new Earthrise Leaders.
I'll have to see if writing to Target can get me a definitive answer.
