Wow, good thing I went back and changed the shipping on my order of these three from Amiami. It gave me the quote with EMS and it was over 3,000 yen. I changed to SAL registered and am awaiting my new total.

Btw, if not yet posted, images from Amiami (Slipstream retains her brother's smirk)
My orders are kind of delayed because I'm combining him with the Space gangsta Black Shadow, this end of the month hopefully.

Especially considering that a new deluxe is 20$+tx, meaning 23$CAN for us Québécois.

And plus, ts not like these will ever come our way. So for not having any other option, I think this is perfectly fair. That was an awesome shipping price you got. I also added that grimlock and the frenzy/rumble set so I am curious to see how much more the shipping for me will be. I hope its not more than 25$ can to ship the whole thing.

Guess that explains the overtly Animated-style head and the "Takara Animated"-esque shiny deco.

Well, whatever then - I don't keep up with comics, since they all kinda look the same, it could be anyone you wanted

It's certainly not stopping me from making her G1 Slipstream for my Classics shelf. Legends Slipstream foots the bill better than the TFSS 1.0 version the TFCC produced a few years ago. This one won't tower over the deluxe Classics Seeker molds either.

Despite the faux chest, I think she works very nicely and works well with the other seekers

I'm hoping some 3P manufacture is currently in the works (as I'm typing here) on providing a much needed better looking head sculpt for this new Slipstream.

You know whts crazy guys, I have Blackarachnia and Slpstream processing along with TAV Grimlock and a few others (animated Armourhide, AM Ironhide) but the one thing I am MOST excited for is Death Garry Gun. And I realized why. Nomatter how cool a redeco or retool is, nothing will ever excite me more than playing with a mold I never tried before.

Yeah, but I actually like nightbird more than arcee. She pulls off the 'heavily armed assassin' look way better than arcee's overly motherly/serial killer face. Plus nightbird is gorgeous
But I do agree that new is better than new-deco, except in rare cases for me where I'm more excited for the redeco than I was for the original like cw swindle, prowl, and nightbird.

Excellent piece of black brick goodness!If you can't get the original Skygarry, this is the best. No retool unlike the Grandus version.
