Kinda disappointed that iGear decided to use the Classis/Universe mold for "Storm" instead of the MP mold. Placed my preorder for the MP Seekers, works out to be a lot cheaper than ordering from iGear directly. Just hope that the quality is good enough that it does't break a soon as you touch it. From what I heard of their previous products their track record is not so good, but still better than waiting for TT/Hasbro to complete the MP seekers line I guess....

they will use the masterpiece mold, likely with the leg fix. can't wait! preordered from tfsource, will probably cancel it and order from iGear when they put up the preorder.

From the page for PP03S (Seeker Storm):

Piece will be to scale and the same size as the other PP03A, E and J. Picture shown is just for color reference.

So yes, it's their "MP" knock-off.

100$ for a deluxe repaint?! :lol:

That's ridiculous. I mean, sooner or later Hasbro WILL do a Sunstreaker repaint, Im sure of it. Just wait you guys, iGear is ripping you off.

I'm sure if you wanted a Sunstreaker extremely bad, you can find a KO with pretty good quality like Peaugh has.

It's not a deluxe. That pic is just a placeholder. It will be a modified MP seeker mold.

This is how rumors get started. Do just a little reading before posting comments like this. I mean you went to the page only to look at the picture that was already mirrored in the news post.
