The Seeker looks like one of the dark green ones seen in the show.

Yeah it looks like the Maximals are getting Minimals changes.

I think I like this Primal deco a bit more than the regular one, but not enough to seek it out, especially since I already have regular Rattrap.
Which is fine, because my local Wal-Marts probably won't stock these anyway.

Call him Rustbucket

It's a really sick military green paintjob.
Reminds me of the Botshot Skyquake even.

Yeah I wouldve preferred they didn't use starscreams head for him lol that's probably the only thing I don't like. Some rust on the head would've been nice too

This is the best idea I've seen. He can be sort of an early Decepticon grunt form of actual G1 Skyquake who happens to also have the same-ish colors.
Shame we already have a Tetrajet Acid Storm because those are almost exactly his Universe colors (just more splotchy).
Huh, hadn't noticed until now seeing it so clearly on the side of the box that they revised the Maximal symbol to be more like the Autobot symbol.
Evolution, I suppose.

Kinda glad Primal isnt vastly different from retail as it saves me from picking him up after already skipping kingdoms Primal for favoring the MP. Same with Rattrp, if it had been packrat deco or something like Netflixs Mirages deco I'd have been buying it just for that.
New Maximal symbol might be a bad thing when they have a hard time putting the right symbols or leaving off symbols on some figures as is.
Wave 3 looks to be something I'm mostly skipping with only a few figures left to be seen.
Posted by Autobot N on March 13th, 2021 @ 8:12am CST
Probably so they can sell him as a zombie, but collectors who just want another seeker can still pick him up. Like me, because I'm only buying him because he looks alive enough to be displayed as a regular seeker.RiddlerJ wrote:If he's sparkless, why is he smiling?

The new Maximal and Predacon symbols are on all of the normal Kingdom Max/Pred toys' packaging (along with the old symbols too), while the toys themselves just use the old ones.blackeyedprime wrote:New Maximal symbol might be a bad thing when they have a hard time putting the right symbols or leaving off symbols on some figures as is.

The third was of deluxes from the Transformers Netflix line is out. They ere found at a Walmart in New Jersey. The fun finding was posted on the Cybertron Cafe Facebook group. What's fun is that in this world of leaks and online announcements, we still did not know the exact names of these figures nor if the rumoured Deep Cover was confirmed to come nor how it would look like. Well, now we do. This wave is made up of Cheetor, in slightly different colours than the mainline version, Sparkless Bot, using the Snomkescreen/Barricade mold, Quintesson Desseus Army Drone, using the Ironhide mold and begging to be used as an army builder, and Deep Cover in a blue redeco. His colours are reversed where what is black on the Selects toy is now blue and vice versa. He also sports battle damage.

I get they are trying to make characters to scale, but I feel ripped off whenever I buy a Legends-sized deluxe (not that he's THAT small, but you know what I mean)

He's pretty standard sized and perfectly in scale with the other beasts. If you want a small deluxe, Blackarachnia is pretty tiny (but still perfect in every way.)
Beside, size dosen't matter. It's what you do with it. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

I know people are excited about a darker blue Cheetor, but I can't get around the lack of blue on his legs. Kingdom Cheetor remains the superior figure for me.

I really like the main colors of Deep Cover but, those battle damage splotches ruin it for me. Also, I'm bummed it doesn't come with the extra gun.

G2 Deep Cover since the blue and black have switched, like G2 Sideswipe I will say I was caught off-guard with Netflix Deep Cover in blue, did not expect that.

I like the darker blues and green cheetah eyes on Cheetor better than what we got with the initial one so I may sell my one to a buddy and get this one instead.
I want to get that Quintesson soldier fella as a makeshift Shattered Glass Ironhide but as I’ve said before, the difference between it and Ratchet would bug the ever living crap out of me, so it’s a hesitant pass for now.
Sparkless Bot is a hard pass, I’ve no need for it nor space.
So out of this whole wave I might just get the Sparkless Seeker as a makeshift Skyquake to round off another Seeker squadron and Cheetor. The rest I’ve either no interest in or the differences in paint are negligible enough that their prior releases still have homes with me.
Posted by Deadput on March 13th, 2021 @ 10:25pm CST
But for me he would be a G1-like Jolt or Evac.

What about the fact that the original SG Ratchet and Ironhide didn't share body-types in the first place?Mindmaster wrote:I want to get that Quintesson soldier fella as a makeshift Shattered Glass Ironhide but as I’ve said before, the difference between it and Ratchet would bug the ever living crap out of me, so it’s a hesitant pass for now.
Ironhide used Universe Ironhide's body while Ratchet used Energon Roadblock's body and his backup form used CW First Aid's body.

Is it just a brighter blue and a darker red for Primal with the change I feet color? Don’t see much else different on him. Rattrap seems brighter overall too.

Rattrap is the same price as Cheetor on Pulse. Why?

For everyone wondering what the $50 Premium subscription got you, it was this, getting Pulse orders in while everyone else spends half an hour refreshing Walmart.com.
Edit: Spoiler and Sparkless Seeker pack both sold out on Pulse as of 1:35 PM ET.

Pushed back to an Amazon 2-pack due to COVID-19 supposedly. I think he's supposed to be packed with BW Grimlock (White/bronze BW Dinobot).
