So, Windsweeper or Spinister?

My guess is Windsweeper. I don't think they'll release Bludgeon until last in the line before the "freebie" figure.

I have the same suspicions. Normally who knows, but it would make sense to get Bludgeon last, have the complete combiner, and then get Impactor with his fellow CW deluxe Autobot.
That or Bludgeon is next to stick him on some legs.

Agreed, that's why I chose Spinister or Windsweeper. I'd prefer it would be Spinister though before we get another straight repaint.

But Spinister is a straight repaint. All of the known 4.0 figures are, save for Bludgeon and Impactor.Doctor McGrath wrote:Bounti76 wrote:Doctor McGrath wrote:So, Windsweeper or Spinister?

Perhaps he means because of the targetmasters?

Yes, that's my fault. I should have been more clear. I was thinking along the lines of Needlenose vs Ruckus.

If the paint work is done well on Spinister, I'll probably pick him up as I like the Alpha-Bravo mold and had G1 Spinister back in the way. Was turned off by the sloppy paint apps on Ruckus though.

Some of you may remember Last week when we mentioned that the next TFSS 4.0 figure was shipping? Well, it turns out we have a surprise for you. The next figure was not a TFSS combiner member at all, but rather the Armada Universe Ramjet Figure! Ramjet is a retool of Generations "Thrilling 30" Armada Starscream with a new head and paint job. The figure can be expected to reach your doors any day now, so keep an eye out! Seibertronians Doctor McGrath and Sabrblade alerted us to the arrivals and both provided pictures for you to check out below.

Universe is the correct term. His head is red, therefore he is a Universe figure.

Got mine today. Same blue spot on the inside of the box lid, but doesn't seem to be any paint damage anywhere. Now, when will the Armada Skywarp be available?

Better look again. I got mine in and it does have paint wear as does the one in these pictures. Look at the front, top insides of the launchers/thrusters by the red inner pieces in this picture. The missing spots aren't very big but they are there on at least this one and mine. It's a lot of bullshit too considering that they know that things like this happen which was why they've been putting foam on top. Yet they didn't for this one. Not only that but that stupid extra piece they put into the foam to lift the front end of the jet up, pushes it up too high and into the bottom of the cardboard lid which is the main cause. If they hadn't put that piece in then the figure would've sat so far down into the foam that it never should've rubbed up against the cardboard.
I was thinking that maybe they'll just give us Skywarp for free as the "final year" incentive figure to everyone who signed up or was still signed up within that final timeframe. Maybe to everyone who ordered the TFSS 5.0 regardless of if they still had a valid membership? Wishful thinking but you never know.

Im a bit disappointed that it was packaged poorly and the blur paint rubbed off on the box lids. Don't remember this being an issue in the past.

Really loving that they are completing the trio +1. This Ramjet played a major role in the comics, and I loved that depiction of him.
All that said, I'm bummed about the paint rubbing on the top. If anyone finds a perfect paint match or fix for this, PLEASE post below.
Thanks if so!
