I wasn't sure if I wanted the Sideswipe/Skywarp 2 pack but said wth and po'd. Couldn't believe it sold out, guess I'll have to wait until in hand photos before deciding if I want to keep it. Already have 3 or 4 Siege Lambos.

theres 6 lambos if you count g2 sideswipe and nf deep cover. 7 if you want to include gigawatt.

Pretty sure we will see a clampdown eventually which brings it to 8.

I think if we include Earthmode Sidewipe than we already have 8. Throw in a possible Clampdown and at least one more variation and this mold+remolds will hit double digits.

Amazing when you consider there were "only" 8 tetrajets and 6 earth planes. it's usually the seeker mold they re-use the hell out of, not the cars.

They can even come up with new names and use different colours, and then we would have even more. I would really like to see that.

Don't sell the seeker molds short My count is 10 (including Hot Link, Red Wing, Sparkless and SG Starscream) and 8 (including Sandstorm and G2 Ramjet). They still have a solid hold on # of re-uses.
Also various names remain in reserve that can be plucked and put into production.

Ah you're right. I under counted!

I ordered an SS86 Scourge from Amazon.ca that came in a bubble mailer and got beat to hell. Funny part is the backdrop inside was for a regular Studio Series release and not for SS86.

I also ordered the Amazon.ca Botropolis pack and checked the gift option. I got the box with the shipping label slapped directly on it.

Then there's my SS86 Hot Rod that I ordered from Amazon.ca. It came in a standard shipping box and is in excellent condition.

tl dr; this company doesn't make sense and doesn't care to. Roll the dice and see if you get someone in packaging that gives a damn or not.
