If memory serves me correct, aren't some recolors/retools put out just to satisfy trademark requirements? Or, simply to reclaim a former trademark? I mean, when was the last time we saw a Needlenose or Dogfight? I believe I must have been in primary school!
Needlenose was just released via the tfss from funpub (
seen here) and dogfight (
seen here)is being released by TT through a company and program similar to the tfcc; but, you are correct in general - and I admit that seekers at the legends, deluxe, and leader price-point woudl be a bit much. I was pointing out (cajolingly) that in a line that was okay-ed based on the fact that new molds had to be used sparingly, I am really shocked that we didn't get any sporadic seeker limbs.
TR Runabout and Runamuck ftw
Thanks for the tip. I wasn't aware of the new Dogfight and Needlenose releases. I'm a little lapsed in my modern Transformers news.
I do desperately hope that we see some sort of body in the TR series for Squeezeplay. How that could happen, though, is beyond me.
Well, Needlenose is going to be expensive ($90, sold out through bbts), and Dogfight is going to be obscenely expensive ($90, sold out in a 2-pack with runamuck, so $45 for a legends class repaint through bbts) as he was almost like a made-to-order redemption in Japan; but, I or anyone else can address any other questions you may have
As for Squeezeplay, they may depart from the 'organic' look of the G1 figure, and go for an entirely mechanical look, then the titanmaster can pilot the mech mode
I am not a G1 fan, please treat my opinions as such.
