Good spot. Personally I like that. And given I don't have a Nitro, I'll have to pick him up whenever he appears at my local Toysaur- Oh.

You see my problem.
And that Nitro is a bit rubbish.

I thought he looked black too which is why I grabbed the second picture that Aichi haven't got yet. IF this is still Titanmaster compatible, I may have a problem..... On second thought, he might be black. The in-box photo, his head and jets are the same color as the rest of him. On back of box, his head is black and jets are black, while the rest are distinctly blue. |

His visable shoulder pad, I'm pretty sure is black, unlike the boxart and stock photo. I thiiink his left forearm is black, but I'm less certain. |

I'm with Jetty. It's just really strange. A character who isn't in the movies from a toy of another character he isn't associated with.
The jet mode of Nitro does look the part though so im sure itll look good in TC blue. It'll infuriate the life out of me if they don't do Starscream and Skywarp versions of the toy to complete the traditional line up though.

I haven't yet found a Nitro so I think I'll get this so I can mess with the mould. Looks better than Nitro - more colour.

The problem is it's a TRU exclusive.
No TRU = No Exclusives

Nooooooooooooo!
It'll sneak out someway I bet. If the toys have gone into production Hasbro will find someone to palm them off on.

Are you talking about Nitro or TC being exclusive? Because I dont think Nitro was a TRU exclusive, in the US as least. I would have sworn I bought it from Walmart.
Either way I quite enjoy it and would be tempted by TC.

Not impressed with that Thundercracker. The alt-mode looks like a bit of a cut-and-shut, the various pieces just don't feel like they belong to the same design really. The humanoid mode is distinctly *bleh* and characterless. All in all the first one of these that I'd say I think is actually bad - as opposed to "perfectly well executed, I just don't care" in the cases of most of them.

Well, it's better than being an apeman, like Starscream.

It is big but oh no it's that ugly grey plastic they keep trotting out that makes figures look extra cheap |

The big question is, is: Is (IS?!?) that Thundercracker still a Headmaster? 'Cos if so, I'll have to be very annoyed and then track down the Starscream Titanmaster...

I having a bit of a teeter here on going on in this line. I was thinking just Blackout but they look really good.
Actually I think I like the cons. I might go for a con collection. They suit the bag of knives look better.

So, with TRU in the US also probably closing all stores, where can I get that Thundercracker eh?!

There are rumours that other stores will take on the exclusives. Nothing confirmed yet.
