Well, the Darkwind kit won't be released at all if there isn't enough interest. But at my last count, I needed about 6 more people I think...

Yeah, it really depends how well you push the two halves of the head together. I honestly have not seen anyone complain about it. I only mentioned it because it was a minor issue for me.

They should be including that with the toy. This is like those stupid retailer exclusives they do with video games. Honestly though, I wouldn't mind have that set for Prowl, so his launchers look different than Bluestreak's.

It is widely known that the cold weather and rain, keep the toys away.

I'm glad I don't care too much about those launchers, I'd hate to pay inflated aftermarket prices to get the Amazon releases. And yeah, I'm sure Dr. Wu or somebody will make one anyway.

Takara BH Prime on the other hand, I kinda want. But only if I can get it on sale or something.

Nice. More G1 ish, an alternative to the built in shoulder cannons. Though I'm sure there will be at least one third party making accesories like this...

And the Japanese/Tak-Tomy versions of Beast Hunters (Transformers GO!):

For those who didn't like the green windows and sword for Voyager BH OP, Japanese version went with blue...and the rest of the deluxes are a little more uniform on the colour (i.e. Starscream and Bulkhead don't look quite as ridiculous, colourwise anyways...

So need those missile Launchers. The stock ones look so gimpy

Yeah, I hope Amazon provides two launchers for Smokescreen or this exclusive is a total fail.

I can live without Prowl having launchers since he didn't have it in the cartoon but Bluestreak/Smokescreen is a must. Those gimpy ones will not do.

I thought I was happy with the Hasbro version. I rather liked the green, gave it a super robot anime kinda look but man, the blue and darker colour scheme just makes it look so much better.

I'm looking for those too and have never seen any.

Yeah those Amazon MP exclusives with the different/extra accessories. I'd love to get them but seriously more expensive that i'll be happy with the base figure and that's it.
