I sold Cybertron Evac the other day for $50. I googled how much he was new, $20. I almost cried he was that “cheap” new.
I’m shocked he’s only worth $50!

I thought Cybertron toys were worth a fortune now. Isn’t Leobreaker like $400 LOOSE?

Just sold him too for $33. But Cybertron Defense Team went for $200. Maybe I just got the wrong buyers on some.

btw got some bad news for anyone hoping for a comic sunstorm


-Dreamwave Sunstorm is not planned (never was) but always possible for 2029 and beyond

I had heard some scuttlebutt that the leak had never been meant to indicate that there were going to be two different Sunstorms available.

This is already halfway between Dreamwave Sunstorm and the original colors.
He has the orange thighs, not white like the cartoon generic and the original toy's box art. (The toy itself, being the G1 seeker mold, had nonexistent thighs.)

The only way to make him more Dreamwave without retooling would be to make his vents also orange (veering too close to "too much of the same color, like the Rainmakers") and both shades of orange just a little darker.
(Okay, they could also mimic the lighting of specific panels where his own aura made it impossible to tell what his actual colors are, but that would look terrible.)

Honestly, I think that's all it takes to make me go ahead and get the 4 pack. While I didn't NEED the Rainmakers again but in earth mode, I do actually like these decos a lot and the fact that they are a different alt-mode from what I already have is actually a point in their favor. Knowing that this is the one way to get Sunstorm in the foreseeable future and the fact that the 4 pack is slightly cheaper than buying 4 Voyagers by themselves, I think, has swung me over the fence.

I had assumed a Dreamwave Sunstorm would’ve had translucent sections and “energy” effects.

I just saw on Facebook (but now cannot locate it again) a video from Evan showing off the Seeker 4 pack and giving some details. It is Transformers first Made to Order deal, with preorders going live today and going through late August (didn't catch the exact date). However many orders they get, they will make. No extras. He specifically said that this is NOT replacing a Haslab, and that an announcement on that will be coming at some later date.

Yeah, I like Sunstorm as the first post-beast era new G1 character that got a significant spotlight, but this not this much sadly. Part of me wants to grab it due to the MTO nature of it, just to make sure there's one more in the world, but it wouldn't hurt for me to start cutting back on spending.

That's been a big problem for me as well, I wasn't even sure I'd be able to swing Bruticus, and honestly, I'm still not sure it was a smart move money-wise just due to recent events. My main goal has shifted to getting my car fully paid off, so in case of job or money issues, that's one less big repeating thing that won't be taking a bite on top of the insurance boosts. Plus, I have to put all this stuff SOMEWHERE...

I think we are going to get a lot of characters we already have “definitive” versions of again. Wheeljack. Hound. Datson Bros. I’d love a single release Mirage instead of him always being in a set.

I'll think of something later.

I would like to have the Sunstorm, but I don't want to support the multipack business model. Release them separately and let me choose, or I choose no altogether.
