Re: Walmart.ca Transformers Platinum Edition Seeker Squadron 3-Pack

Do any of our TRU insiders know what their price will be?

Re: Walmart.ca Transformers Platinum Edition Seeker Squadron 3-Pack

I can't believe I completely forgot about these when they were announced.

I'm so tempted, but they just don't fit into my Death Star plans.

That said...they would have had me at hello if these were the Big Three of SS, SW and TC. Kind of an odd choice to go Conehead before reissue the orginal three, but these are definitely cool.

Re: Walmart.ca Transformers Platinum Edition Seeker Squadron 3-Pack

I for one am super happy that Hasbro chose to do the coneheads as opposed to the O.G. ones (ss/tc/sw).
After all we did get the O.G.'s back then during the commemorative series era (10+ years ago).

Re: Walmart.ca Transformers Platinum Edition Seeker Squadron 3-Pack

Was never into what I like to call the "Secondary Seeker Squadron". Last time I went all out on the jets I had nine CHUG Seekers which frankly caused some boredom in the mold.

Happy with my primary G1 trio so this is a pass but concur it is a great deal.

...yeah, but ten years? It's time for a re-release for sure.

Funny how the artwork, awesome that it is, kinda minimizes the full-on 'conehead' look of the coneheads.

Speaking of the artwork, both this and the Insecticons look great.

Easy purchase. Great price for Reissues, plus 2 of them were never re-released here in North America. Free shipping too. Thrust is my all time favorite BTW!!!

Re: Walmart.ca Transformers Platinum Edition Seeker Squadron 3-Pack

Against the objections of my wallet, I ordered a set. I think I only have a Dirge reissue but not the other two, so I thought what the heck. $31 per figure shipped isn't bad at all. Hopefully the quality is up to par. Already got a notification that it shipped

Re: Walmart.ca Transformers Platinum Edition Seeker Squadron 3-Pack

I'd say the quality is not quite that of the originals or the earlier reissues. Still great additions if you do not have the originals, but they just seemed a little off. The trademark tampo sticks out like a sore thumb though, especially on Ramjet.
