Hard to gauge CW popularity. It's "G1" but it's also still really off.
I guess there's no chance of a black-haired Vegeta in shoulder-pad-less armor.
I'm also balking on Takara Bruticus and Defensor after having imported Menasor, Superion, and Devastator. I like the colors on Hasbro Bruticus better. If there are hints that deluxe Groove is getting released state-side, why not shuttle Blast Off as well, just like with the Stunticons and Aerialbots got?
>>5502430In addition to the Takara sets, for the Hasbro versions I got ONLY the 2 exclusives.
Then I fucked up and didn't get Scarabus long ago when I had the chance. We can see which is the bigger blunder. Seeing those Takara sets pop up for sale at original retail cost all the time and still be in stock on a lot of online stores is making me hesitate to keep going on the Takara route, even though there are more and more incentives with each release.
I guess it could be worse. I did pick up every other 4H figure I wanted.
