Does anybody else have Seeker Burnout besides me?

I do on the Masterpiece mold, yeah. This one I'd care less about if Thundercracker weren't such a great character in IDW right now.

I’m so glad the TCC FINALLY retired the Classics mold, good grief... but now with the legends mold it’s like ugh, can we have something else now that’s not so repetitive please? JMO

so is it just me, or is that definitely a 5mm port smack dab in his forehead? Implication that Leader Starscream will have a crown?

I'm not familiar with him. Where did you buy him? Cuz if there's a seeker I don't have, damnit I want it.

Great, now I want TFCC to come out with a seeker who's upset and dismissive because he's the last of a bodytype before the chassis was replaced. He was too early to get the new body, and too late to be anything but the shadow cast by Greater Bots. Like Acid Storm, and Thundercracker.

Brunout: The always forgotten last run

I think that's the third-party Legends-scaled Scourge. Who's making them, I don't remember, but I think they're also doing equally-sized versions of Cyclonus and Galvatron, who definitely takes his cues from Mania King.

Like Flamewar, that would be hilarious

As a reminder, this a retool and redeco of the first Generations Leader figure Jetfire - check out below how it turned out!

The vehicle mode looks great, but the bot mode is lacking. It would have been nice to put some paint apps on the underside of the wings, for one. That wouldn't ruin the look of the alt mode at all. Heck, if it's too hard to fill in all of that gridwork with red paint, they could have gone for the G1 red and silver stripes on the outer wings instead. The thrusters on the back could have painted gray/silver to better approximate the shoulder intakes in bot mode, which are unfortunately missing. That would change up the vehicle mode a bit, since the thrusters are black, but it would have been an acceptable compromise to me. Finally, a retool for the null rays would have been nice. They look a little clunky as is. Maybe they couldn't do this for logistical reasons, but it would have made more sense to me to cut out the excess guns to save on plastic costs and use the savings for a more detailed paint deco. Not bad, but far from perfect.

I can't help seeing an angry owl every time I look at Thundercracker's chest.

That would be Galvatron from the Energon line. Available on eBay for a good chunk of change.
