Hopefully we will get a Deluxe Classics Generations Sunstorm soon. I would say I'm buying this, but I'm sure the price tag will be around $250. and I already a Vintage Sixshot. Maybe they should Encore Greatshot instead

Anything that promotes the lesser known Seekers is great in my book. That said, I can't imagine a scenario in which I would purchase MP Sunstorm. Maybe if I found him marked down to $15 at Walmart like MP Skywarp was, but otherwise no dice.

Sixshot again? Is Encore just an encore of the reissues from 12 years ago instead of the ones from G1?

Yeah, I share your apathy. I much prefer reissues of stuff that hasn't been reissued before. Come on... give us Encore Lio Kaiser!!

 

If lucky, maybe eHobby will make that, and maybe even the one from Brave.

If it were just Takara, then I'd hold hope for that. But not from TakaraTOMY. I still can't believe they didn't release an eHobby Metrotitan when they Encore Metroplex came out (even if they were unable to include the Micromaster (Metrobomb?) with him - who cares... I would've totally gotten him (I already have Skystalker anyway :P))

I missed out on Sixshot the first time around, so I am actually glad to hear this.

I am not sure I care about MP Sunstorm. I can honestly say I do not have a single toy of the character. He was in the comics or something right?

Sunstorm is a fan term that HasTak picked up on. Basically, Sunstorm is just the yellow seeker seen in G1. Whether he was supposed to be yellow or just a coloring error, who knows.
