Great. A sixty buck Thundercracker and a worthless Skywarp I don't want. You not a Skywarp fan then? I don't hate him, I just don't care about him outside of completing a set. I prioritize Thundercracker over even Starscream. I bought Siege Skywarp exclusively to get Fracas for TF Scourge. Justified him as completing the trio, but had Fracas not been involved, I'd not have bothered. But this time it's just a supersized version of a toy I already have that already had a ton of obscure seekers Hasbro will never do-over. It really brings nothing new to the plate. And starting a new seeker collection with an over-sized version creates a size disparity I cannot mentally overcome. (Conversely a one off from the ER mold, I can justify as being the Andre the Giant of the seekers) A one off like TC is part of my Thundercracker collection. So this Skywarp is worthless to me. Moreover, it triggers my OCD making me feel like I need Starscream. Which in turn will start to drive me to go after all the ones they do.

The one thing Target has going for it is that the website is very good for locating stock. You just then need someone near enough to collect it and ship it.
Unless its a redcard exclusive, f*^&ing Redwing!

I already have, but I was hoping to use Thundercrackers upper legs rather than having to paint Starscreams. But between cost and HOW BLOODY HARD IT IS TO DISMANTLE THAT DAMNED TOY!!! applying some blue paint might be the sensible option.

Rung has eluded me so I will grab those when they go up.
Soundbarrier continues to escape me.

I couldn't bring myself to buy Soundbarrier. I just can't cope with the idea of little men being roads. It's too cruel.

Indeed. The tiddlers are a problem because our online retailers quite sensibly don't want to be stuck with all the reissues in the waves. I haven't got a Singe yet, but that's my fault for not buying when they came up on Amazon Japan.

I too missed Singe. I had other concerns at the time.

I can't help but feel he was so restricted that at some point Kapow or ID will get solid cases. They've turned up rare ones like that before. I remember no one could get the Ramhorn Titanmaster, then ID got tons in.

Loads of Ramhorn and his wave just before Christmas. Manchester one still had some back at end of Feb. I think they were about a fiver.

I say his wave but it might not have been. He was there though. I think with Apeface and some white dinosaur one?
