Great, but I guess I'll wait for it at my local Walmart to save on shipping.

I could buy the Takara version for that price.

BBTS has gotten pretty greedy lately. The pre orders for RoTF Thrust and Gears were $27.99 each and they still sold all of them. I bought the original Takara Skywarp for them back when it first came out and payed about $90 if I remember right.

I only use BBTS for their clerence sales now.

Might consider the preorder if I save up a bit from this point on. Since knowing the WM around me, the exclusives gets scooped up faster than a wad of cash on the sidewalk. :-?

This actually got me thinking, why are both the Masterpiece seeker jets WM exclusives? :-? Does that mean if Thundercracker comes out in the future it'll be WM exclusives as well?

Probably for TC --rather see MP Grim first.

$90?? No thanks on that price tag!!!!! + shipping --yikes!!! :shock:

I got the Takara one when it came out, so I am happy with that. From the picture, I didn't see anything different enough to warrant another purchase.

I think this one is similar to WM Exclusive Starscream in that they're both closer representation to their G1 cartoon counterpart. While the Takara one isn't. :-?

greeeeeaaaaat :roll: . nice to see a walmart exclusive being sold by a online distributer. im sure that means even less for the actual stores so it will make it even harder to actually find one at the intended store it was an exclusive for.

not to mention having to pay the mark up. these exclusives are a joke half the time. :APPLAUSE:

Hold on... 16? So, fifteen-year-olds will cram the null rays down their throats and jam their eyes with the missiles? Didn't these warnings apply to toddlers?

Online vendors like to charge double retail for store exclusives. I mean 50% markup like up $60 to $90 is not their normal style.

Exclusives such as repaints or w/e are pretty weak, but not when its Masterpiece TFs. ;;)

didnt mean exclusives are a joke, just the fact that they claim to be (in this case) a walmart exclusive....yet bbts is selling them. i see alot of really cool store exclusives anywhere but the stores. some of that may be due to scalping though. never once did mp starscream make it to any of my local walmarts. i had to resort to an internet store and pay theyre ridiculous mark up. im just predicting the same for skywarp.

I know what you mean. :-? I never seen a MP Starscream at my local WM before, though I've seen some dude carry off 3 of them one time (if that counts). :sad: I guess you'll have to keep searching, bc WM don't have employees that are as helpful as Target, atleast from my experience with them.

walmart employees in my experience are pretty much worthless. at least in my area. Targets though on the other hand are amazing! actually ask if i need help looking for anything, will tell me if another store has what im looking for. If it wasnt for this one awesome target employee i wouldnt have my newly acquired bruticus maximus. went out of his way and dug in the back to find me the last one!

Reminds me the time that I asked a WM employee that was restocking the toy section if they'll restock the Transformers, as there are several empty pegs, he said no. I walked around the store, bought some other stuff that I needed, walked by the toy asile on the way and saw the same employee restocking the Transformers... #-o (insert facepalm)

I guess, but this type of thing never happened to me before at Target or w/e. :cry:

just destroy his aisle when he goes away next time. Revenge of the Customer :twisted:

I don't think I will be getting him. I already have an MP Skywarp, and this one looks too simular to the first Skywarp. If they ever have Generic Purple Seeker or Acidrain and maybe Sunstorm, those I might get. The only thing these would be good for now to me is kitbashing.
