Tru Dirge Reissue

[sf170089]

Has anyone seen the Toys R Us Reissue of Dirge yet? I saw one on eBay and I am not very impressed with the box art. I really like the box art of the first 3 seekers, but Dirge's seems quite mediocre. Also, his box art does not show him as a cone head. I remember quite a while ago, there was a topic on whether or not your later seekers (Dirge, Thrust, Ramjet) are displayed as cone heads or not. I know it isn't any big deal, but I was just wondering what other people thought about the TRU Dirge.

 

One last diatribe on the Seekers. Toys R Us on-line has the upcoming release of Dirge at 30 bucks. If Dirge is 30 bucks, why was Toys R Us charging 35 for Starscream, Thundercracker, and Skywarp? Don't get me wrong, I'm not upset that Dirge is cheaper than the others; I'm just upset that the others were more expensive than Dirge. It's all about greed :-(. Oh well, I really can't wait for his release and the release of the last 2 seekers.

skywrap was also 29.99 at amazon.com but when they got to TRU stores the price was its reg 34.99 so i think its going to be the same with these.

The original Dirge boxart didn't have him as a conehead either. I think the toys look TERRIBLE as coneheads, and anyway, they have the same mould, so still have the 'vents' (or whatever they are) each side of the face, and this is detail you can't see if they're coneheaded!

The box art is HORRENDOUS!! I cant believe they released it with this art, but then again, it aint like the g1 box art was good either

Hey,

 

yeah the dirge box art isn't great, same with the Rodimus one. Cmon I think they could have found a better picture of Rodimus. Sure it doesn't even use up the whole cover.. its so small, there is way too much red space on it.

I don't think with as much reissues that TRU have that you would have to RUSH to get it... unless you just wanted to for the funof it...

Ive seen tcracker and Skywarp go for 44 and 45 us dollars in some online stores.

Many of the reissues are collecting dust on the shelves at my TRU. I want to get Grapple, but I know I can wait a little bit. I might get Rodimus Prime just to have one with metal toes and rubber tires. Dirge is a must and his cone will be UP just like my Thrust figure.

i wouldnt complain if he is cheaper than ss, sw, and tc (that would give me some extra change to get some energon basic figures). what might make him cheaper is that he has less parts than the others.

Can't wait to get him I love the seekers. I hope they re-issue ramjet and thrust soon too! thrust first though I have the first 3 seekers already.

 

Hasbro/Takara really need to get in gear with the decepticons though. 6 seekers, megatron, soundwave, astrotrain, and sixshot just can't cut it
