It's amazing how muck more MP3 feels like Thundercracker now.

 

plastic better than mp03?

Yes

Cool. I want one. Nice display stand :thumb

i would accept him as thundercracker if they'd produce a thundercracker sticker sheet

So Walscream is based on the Skywarp mold, but still has Starscream's head sculpt... that's one less thing to worry about. It's good to see there's not any carbon scoring on his front half in bot mode, since that's how mine will be displayed 95% of the time. The blackwash looks good too, I just wish he was grey or silver rather than bone white.

 

I've hit most of the Wal-Marts in my area, and they've got all the other new figures, but no MP SS's yet. They're probably waiting for all the Ricos and Rollbars to sell so they can use the shelf space...

I just can't love the colors. But it's a good price and since the plastic is better, he's a great alternative to Takara's version.

I had a couple stores search the UPC code (gotten from the receipt of another member from another board) in their system, and the surrounding stores - not even in their inventory.

 

I do not want to spend more on eBay than the $48.88 this costs in stores, just because none of my stores will ever get it.

got your voice mail, elrod - i am a right jealous bastard. and wow, mp3 really DOES do a TC in that line up.

He does look a lot cooler IRL... I think the "it's Starscream" effect takes over and you get hypnotized (at least I did)

 

The plastic seems quite sturdy to me BTW, though I don't have MP-03 and can't compare him to that
