It's strange because they did do retolling on Scattershot. The jet mode looks different enough. Don't know why they couldn't bother with remolding the combiner head.

Well those guys yeah, but was referring to the ones up for pre-order with no picture swelter, kickback, hammer and what I assume will be an arctic deco for slipstream.

For a proper Bruticus, I'm going to wait for Takara's since they've been knocking the4m out of the park.

I don't know why they couldn't bother with painting the combiner head. Prolly didn't catch it until it was too late. Oh well, there's a few afternoons the 3rd party folks can spend their time with.

Still think it's kinda sh*tty for BBTS to have such a price discrepancy between Onslaught and Scattershot...

Hellscream9999 wrote:$17-18 is just too much for them, screw it, I can wait for retail/hts to get them
That's why I never pre-order anything. prices for preorder are always higher and I usually find them for much cheaper when they start hitting stores

Not a very pleasant price isn't it? Retail price here for voyagers is $24.99, so no thank you, especially when you consider their shipping rates

Well then! Works for you doesn't it!
I like getting from amazon or ebay since the shipping is free on $35 or more amazon orders and so many things I find on ebay have very cheap or free shipping (got Strongarm back in june for $2.50 and $2.50 shipping, cant go wrong there)

Yikes! I didn't even notice that. Scattershot is only $22.00 though. I guess if you get both of them for $49, it comes to $25 a figure which is alright for anyone who wants both but sucks for those who just want Onslaught.
I go back and forth on trying to find them in stores vs just biting the bullet and paying extra to get them all at once like this. My local stores still haven't gotten the Masquerade wave in. It took forever for Ultra Magnus to show up.

I was thinking of doing the same thing battle core optimus with rook and alpha vravo and demolisher with off road and blast off because I think takara will make a shuttle figure.
Who else are you using in your outcast combiner? I'm interested to know.

I believe he was using either Cyclonus or Optimus as a torso with Rook, AB, Offroad and hasbro Blastoff. plus, the Demolisher was only a prototype shot, it isn't set as an actual release

I see yes. I wanted to make an all new autobot and con combiner myself provided demolisher does see release. It'd be cool if somebody came out with a set of heads to swap with hasbros deluxes to make all new characters.

If it's like Driftpool from FunPub the swords won't be able to fit in the holsters.

This time it looks to be the Blurr version of the mold with Drift's head and spoiler, meaning it's meant to have the guns instead of the swords, but also includes the big sword as the bonus.chuckdawg1999 wrote:Flashwave wrote:I am with the others. Beautiful, but not for 70.

Every 15 minutes it looks over the online stores for status changes and sends out emails for whichever toy line you're looking for. So it works with not just Transformers, but anything else too. Feedback appreciated!

So I just got the first few emails from this service and I really like it. I'm following star wars and transformers and it's really thorough. If you're looking for retailer suggestions then I'd say Kmart. It might sound stupid but they tend to list things early like Skywarp http://m.kmart.com/transformers-generat ... 324119010P and they're at much lower prices than other retailers.

It is pricey since his real price in japan is 130$US, but its better than the 200$ the other seekers cost.

Is this a new mold, a re-release or a heavy retool. Also, are they cheating on the cone head?william-james88 wrote:carytheone wrote:The pre orders for MP Ramjet went up on TFSource for $180

It is a heavy retool and yes they are cheating on the cone head since the actual nose cone is between his legs in the back.Look at this pic, nosecone on top and nosecone at the bottom:
I dont mind fake parts when they cover or hide the duplicated part (like Optimus' grill) but this is a bit silly.
