While there are several fans collecting all seekers using the Transformers War for Cybertron Siege voyager tetrajet mold, there have not been many images of all seven seekers together. Getting seven of these in one year has never happened before and the only other seeker molds to have as many (or more) so far is the MP11 mold and the classics mold, both of which took far more than a year to get to 7 characters. With the voyager height favoured amongst collectors as the height for these characters in a classics collection, it's time we took a breather and just looked at what this year accomplished for our Decepticon ranks. Below are the name of the seekers along with where they were available in the US:
Starscream - standard retail release
Thundercracker - standard retail release
Skywarp - part of Amazon exclusive boxset
Redwing - online Target red card exclusive
Nova Storm - part of Target exclusive boxset
Ion Storm - part of Target exclusive boxset
Acid Storm - part of Target exclusive boxset
We thank Sabreblade's contact and TF-fan kev777 for bringing these pictures to our attention. Who else is collecting them all?

With that tail fin the tetrajet looks sooooo much better
I would say the sets are worth it

No! That gray thing isn't Skywarp. Skywarp is BLACK. You can call the thing Hasbro released Smokestorm or some nonsense like that. But that's definitely not Skywarp.

SKYWARP IS BLACK! END OF STORY! You & Hasbro are screwing with my childhood memories & my very first Transformer back in 84. Out of the 3 seekers I chose the BLACK one because he was BLACK. I didn't choose the dark gray one because there was no dark gray version.
SKYWARP IS BLACK, LAVENDER/VIOLET & SILVER.
SKYWARP IS NOT DARK GRAY, LIGHT GRAY & MAROON/CRANBERRY.
Don't argue! Everybody knows Skywarp is BLACK, SILVER & VIOLET. Just like everybody knows the sky is blue & the grass is green.
If you tell me Skywarp is gray I will tell you Optimus Prime is actually orange or yellow. And then I would be laughed right out of the room.
BLACK! ALWAYS HAS BEEN BLACK! And I never imagined I would be arguing about this. If Skywarp is gray then so is Darth Vader. Sheesh! For Christ's sake! What the hell is wrong with this fandom?
Is Soundblaster gray too? Because Hasbro made him gray once. But the new Siege Soundblaster is BLACK. So which is it? I'm going with BLACK because BLACK looks a million times better.

Easy now, just relax. He is saying that the siege Skywarp matches the original g1 CARTOON color scheme (except the purple - the purple on him is much darker then it was on the cartoon) Also, he is not as grey as pics make him out to be, he is much more of a matte metallic gunmetal. its quite striking in hand tbh.
That being said however, I do prefer the Jet black (pun intended) with silver as opposed to the cartoon colors. Who knows, we may see a g1 toy version repaint down the road at some point. Wouldn't surprise me at all.
coneheads anyone?

This has got to be the most overblown nitpick I've seen all week.
I think he looks fine in hand really. Photos have a thing for making everything look a little off anyway.

I recently completed the set for a friend of mine. He had Starscream and Thundercracker, I got the other five. It was a lot harder to source the "exclusives" in the UK, especially the Rainmakers, than I expected. It is pretty ridiculous for a chain to retain a toy exclusive in countries it doesn't exist in
Unless it is an Amazon exclusive, which is a global company, surely regional exclusivity should end at the country border? Or Maybe Hasbro UK could step up and sell them directly, if they weren't so F'ing useless
But I digress. They do look good, but the overall aesthetic is definitely hurting without the tail fin. They've done well to release 7 of the 17 Seekers so far though. The Tetrajets are also the most faithful to the Cybertronian altmode mandate of SIEGE, to date.
Fingers crossed that maybe someday...
...The WFC line will follow suit with others I would be interested in...

Firstly ... to the person that reported this post, please ensure that it actually violates the forum rules in some way.
Secondly ... thank you for bringing it to my attention. I needed a good laugh, and this definitely provided it.

They will probably use that new earth mode mold and come out next year or so. Would make sense since we never saw them on cybertron, unlike the others.

I found him this morning at Wal-Mart in the light blue. In my excitement that I found him and my lack of caffination I didn’t really pay attention. I would really prefer the darker blue so was hoping that was what is shipping from Amazon.
Mine is the same color as the one I saw on the shelf in Baltimore, Maryland two days ago.

Hey, we all have our hang-ups about something. For me it’s when Sideswipe toys get produced without rocket launchers

Ok thanks. I thought I had seen somewhere that he was gonna be in both color schemes. Guess I’ll keep the one I have.

Because the head was already on a different sprue since it had to be black on all of the other six non-black Seekers released before Skywarp.MaverickPrime wrote:Ok, maybe Siege Skywarp IS dark grey and dark purple instead of true black and lavender, the fact that his head makes the lighter color of the body more noticeable doesn't help. Why didn't they just cast those parts in the same color as the head?

I love this new Seeker from Siege!
Already got Starscream, Redwing and yesterday bought Skywarp. Online shop in Holland had it as "sold out" and my hopes and dreams were crushed. I always buy Transformers too late from that store, emailed the guy and he said I have 1 left. So I got it right away, hope it will arrive today. Skywarp set is expensive, more than it needed to be. I'd rather have him packed with some Siege deluxe dude painted generic grey and purple.
I <3 Siege, just unpacked Hound. He is soooo cute! And cool! I'm in love with Ultra Magnus his cab robot mode. Ironhide is perfect, but I can't find his hammer (Quit reorganizing the damn man cave room)
Hasbro would do me a favor if they repaint him into the generic purple soldier Seeker.
Anyway, very happy we finally have G1 accurate Voyager Seekers. I was very dissapointed they remolded Armada Skywarp's head, besides the shoulders not having a normal swivel, the Armada Seekers were very cool for their time and years to come.

It doesn't make sense in the fact that the idea of SIEGE was to give Cybertronian altmodes to Bots that never had one. You can sound off quite the list of examples as proof of concept, everyone from Ultra Magnus to Astrotrain. I vaguely remember the Battlechargers were in a poll to be added to this line and they never had one either.
That said, other than Jetfire and Omega Supreme, the SIEGE line concept has been by and large, a failure in terms of the Autobots. Their potential for cool Cybertronian vehicles squandered for generic "future" concept [Earth Based] car designs. No Bumblebee saucer or Wheeljack shuttle from the Sunbow pilot, just plain old boring cars and trucks.

I really don't see why not. This line has sold like gangbusters for Hasbro.

It's been ...a while, since there was news on that poll. So I can't even remember the details at this point. That said, aesthetically they couldn't even maintain ONE year on Cybertron, let alone three

Doesnt matter that much for future figures, we already know we are getting micromasters and they weren't aboard the ark and we already have figures with earth modes before even getting on board the ark.Just as screwed up as the war for cybertron games
As long as we get figures with half decent alt modes (no hope for the micromasters combined weapon modes or rumble/frenzy) and cheaper or better alternatives to the original figures -from what ever their orig series, as the next lines go on. Also we better get that Titan Scorponok and he was nowhere near cyberton or the ark

Springer and Impactor are already present in the WFC line, so we can forget this trilogy sticking rigidly to the limited roster of the 80's cartoon. Once again, I point out next year is the 20th anniversary of Car Robots... Perhaps Gigatron or Rail Racer might make it onto the Ark?
