I just got mine tonight and after reading through most of these pages I'm surprised no one mentioned the "Waspinator" decals. I would have thought all the BW fans would have been all over that reference.

 

It's been mentioned before. I posted some where that it's a cool reference but backward and makes no real since. Waspinator with Starscream decals does but not the reverse. It's like a mental paradox to me. Since I know that Screamer existed and died before Waspy, I cant put those stickers on him. I guess If I could pretend that Screamer was a real jet and not relate him to G1, then I could do it......but I cant.

LOL TIME TRAVEL

 

all I know is that those stripes are really starting to bug me. I wish they'd been stickers too.

Wont it bleach off? Do you own him?

pete doesnt own one and doesnt intend to - which makes all his posturing a little disingenuous.

I still haven't decided yet... I tend to think out loud sometimes.

What's to decide? Buy em now! Whether he's a Jet or a Bot, you still win.

I like to think carefully before dropping $100 on a toy, it's just something I do ;)

and yet you talk about detailed statues and collectibles and adult would be proud of owning .... How much do you think those replicas/statues are gonna cost???

The hard hero statues were like $45 a piece, so i dont see how this isnt easily worth more than two of those.

Dr. A could have gotten a real paint app. Something to kb I guess.

I'm not understanding why you're drawing a distinction between Hard Hero statues and figures like MP Starscream. They're in the same basic category IMO; it's just that one is in the "statues" subgroup and the other is in the "action figures" subgroup. But they're both clearly intended for adult collectors.

My point is that i am not drawing any distinction. You ask for "A" and get "B" which are, as you say, both intended for the same audience, and yet you dismiss "B" for being too expensive for just a toy.

 

It just seems that if "A" is worth the cost, then "B" is absolutely worth it.

 

BTW- "A" = Statues, "B" = MP figures.
