Full Version: Blackout/Scorpinok TRU 2 pack

Fear or Courage
Canada never seems to get store exclusives, yet TRU is sometimes the exception. I wander in today and see the TRU exclusive Blackout/scorpy 2 pack, for the price of 29.99 canadian, not on sale or anything, and there's a ton on the shelf.

So, knowing the price, and knowing the slightly better Premium Blackout is around the corner, gimme an opinion. Is it worth the money? A deluxe/voyager 2 pack for that price does strike me as oddly cheap.

Basically, I'm asking, ya think its worth snapping up, not owning either mold?

Get your 2-pack and buy Reprolabels for Blackout. smiletf.gif
Skoponok's Skopions
Yes he is. I wanted them, but besides the price. It looks pretty cool.

No.

I bought the two-pack for $25 and was sorely disappointed. Blackout is just not a good figure (though to be honest, I like the original more than the Premium) and not worth picking up, in my opinion. His much lauded compatability with Scorponok is cumbersome and silly looking. His Automorph is poorly designed, his head is horrendous, he's woefully underarmed, and his rotor backpack limits leg posability. If you need the mold, I'd get Evac. It fixes a lot of the problems I have with the Blackout mold.

Ironically, I liked the Scorponok more than the Blackout. Sure, his robot mode is a joke but his scorpion mode is kinda fun.

Yeah it is worth buying the 2 pack because it costs less than buying them seperately. IMO Blackout is the best Voyager class figure. Scorponok's alt mode is dumb but his Scorpion mode is awesome

I think Blackout is worth having, but not for $30.00. I'd wait for the premium edition.
