I dunno. More splashes of color? More detailing? I know Skywarp's technically 'black', but I've always liked it when they played up his purple details as well. it looks nice. Better than ENTIRELY BLACK like the MP, anyway.

I also loathe the feet on that mold.

He's not entirely black, he's got purple where he's supposed to get purple--hands/forearms, shins, wings. Admittedly the feet should be purple too. But the rest is spot-on.

I think you're just thinking he has more black than he does because of the samurai sword sheathe kibble.

I'm looking at him on my desk and that cockpit doesn't help either. It is actually orange, but so dark in shade that it looks black.

I think it's more because I'm used to Classics Skywarp, who has quite a bit more purple (Feet, more on his shins, upper arms, the upper portions of the guns), plus a bit more silver on the chest, and it looks really good to me. Next to him, MasterWarp just looks like a solid mass of black with purple gloves. It's a *much* less interesting color scheme.

Plus, like I said, the mold doesn't really look that good me in the first place. Especially not for sixty bucks. I better *love* a toy for that much.

See, I'm not nuts about it, either. Really had a good long in-package stare-down at the one I picked up for Spockwave, but I'm just not quite in love with this one yet.

Now, should they hang out here long enough to go on clearance, you better believe I'll bite just on general principle, but it's just not looking like sixty bucks worth of fun.

I'll bet any money these will still hang around past Christmas.

That they have... I found 6 of them yesterday on clearance for $30.

I bought one a few days ago for $25 at one of my local Wal-Marts. They had about 20 of the things when they were $60, and there were still about 8-10 on the shelf in the clearance aisle.

Yep, our Wal-Marts have started marking them down to $25 too.

I haven't been to a Wal Mart in a long time. Might go this weekend to see if mine have any. I seriously doubt it though.
