If I didn't know better, I'd swear it was a Knock-Off.

I fell off that fence quite a while ago. That freebie doesn't look worth the price. Yay for waiting and not ordering sight unseen!

Although the colour scheme would be cool to remove the autobot symbol and add a maple leaf.

Richochet is just a bad seller/unpopular design in general.

Look at the TFC Ricochet's, same price still, and plenty in stock at most retailers.

Also character wise it's an odd choice, this year seems to be ALL ABOUT the "GeeWun" and while Ricochet (aka Stepper) IS G1 (in Japan), he is sooo obscure I doubt anyone will know enough to notice or care. Jazz in this line is already the "evil one" so why bring in his black repaint brother? What's also bizarre is it's the 2nd time they are using the name Ricochet for an exclusive..... Fun Pub is confusing me.....
