When you put the thrusters on his wings instead of his ankles he looks fine.
IMO this Dirge is a better mould than the Botcon one because of the wing shape. Just don't think much of the stripey stripes.

Nice find!
I prefer the botcon decos in both cases. The wings are too distracting on both of these.
These look pretty cool and I'll definatly be getting them. I still would love to get the botcon seekers though.
Hey Iceburn wanna cut the price of your lot and let me pay them off for the next year lol
Thrust is disappointing, i hope the VTOL thing can be corrected
I hope they are about $100 each, that would be the max id pay for a deluxe rare figure like these
ordered mine from Singapore (actually my mum did).
It's SGD$135 for both, but immediate payment was needed to secure purchase.
Iceburn, if you have an SG connection, now is the time to utilise it! :D

Hey I uploaded all these photos and as you can see this Thrust is pretty good to me!! Pretty accurate I reckon! Well Im certaintly extremely happy im going to get these either this at a lower price or 10million times more for the Botcon version. :p

oh sorry i forgot to add that once those removaable fans are put in the right place it will look fantastic. Did i also mention that those fans spin as well!! How cool! Well thats what i have read.
If the VTOL parts can be moved onto the top of th wings then I'm guessing that the guns can be moved under te rear wings:

A Photochop someone did of what the alt mode could look like too:

I saw it posted on Seibertron, and just got my wife to confirm.. Ganbo-Store blog has now confirmed the parts can detach, and the fan can actually be manually spun!
Totally awesome. I've always considered Botcon Thrust to be my favorite Classics seeker, but this looks to top the cake.
What jaydisc said. When I look at Botcon Thrust now, it got me thinking indeed that this is nice since the wingspan is much longer and doesnt look to compressed. I just hope the initial photos though were mistransformed and that the final really is that of the Photochoped ones by our members, well with these toys I find that never believethe initial photos as "final product and photos may vary" has always been their motto. BUt I do hope its a positive variance rather than a negative one. Segway - need to learn using photoshop , its wasted on my PC as I dont know how to use it heheheh. :p
This news is making the expensive purchase a little happier~! :p
Well, seeing that the news now says that the turbines are detachable and can be attached on either wings or tailfins AS WELL AS that the turbines actually spin independently, AWESOMETACULAR!
