Remolded wings for Dirge, woot.

Thrust kinda looks like it has better proportioned wings than the BotCon one, but they're skinnier. Ah well, I'll reserve judgment until I have better pics or have it in hands.

edit: Pre-orders begin November 13th, and the toys are set to ship in March.

I have the convention ones, but honestly, I'm glad these are coming out so more people have a chance to own these characters.

I don't have the con ones so I can dance around and say "I have them and you don't." I have them because I love the characters. More people having the chance to do the same makes me happy.

Dirge's new wings are tempting, but I doubt I can afford him (I had more money two years ago when I got the con set.)

Agreed, but considering these are still exclusives, so they're $70 each for these guys, all three cost $210... and the GoD set was like $260 and included two extra guys -- three if you attended... it's not like the people who bought the BotCon sets should be hurtin' too much. Comparatively, I got my money's worth.

And I wonder how many people who complained about the original set being expensive are actually laying down $70 per Seeker, since a good number of 'em were balking at the price. This is no better, really?
