Think I'll get this on the grounds reprolabels are bound to fix the window. Not going to bother with Maverick though unless they give it a decent repaint.

The windshield wrecks a toy where the big appeal is how it resembles the movie vehicle. Easy pass.

If they had just make the window glossy black opaque plastic.

Indeed. Making it see-through is a real head shaker.

Well there have been several million exclusives in the interim.

Yep, seems like a million years ago that this was announced. The first exciting exclusive of the summer...

And aside from a flash sale exclusively for scalpers, we're still waiting for them to sell it to us.

That is a bit more tempting. If it isn't photoshopped.

Doesn't mean the image can't be manipulated, but I agree, it looks genuine.

It's officially posted by Takara. They're not generally known for doing things like that.
And while Hasbro does (or did) use a lot of photoshop, they never made fundamental changes to the toy like this that didn't exist on the actual toy.

Could just be clever lighting/positioning. Y'know, the way TakTom always pose MP figures to hide side/back angles.

Poor Gigawatt hasn't quite mastered flight, yet.

So how are people pronouncing Gigawatt?
I always want to use the hard G, but in the movie the Doc does use the softer one which makes me wonder if that is canonically how the name should be said. I haven't watched any of the Hasbro videos - has the name been spoken out loud there?
I mean... I will pronounce it with a hard G either way, but inquiring minds and all that...
