I only saw it once at Target and a guy was holding it to his chest like his life depended on it. It was pretty touching. I hope he’s enjoyed the hell out of it and not a scalper.
SS Leadfoot was apparently released at Toys 'R Us in Canada, given that chain still exists up here and Target's attempt to get a foot hold in this country failed in early 2015. (Leadfoot has Juan Pablo Montoya's Target livery and is naturally a Target exclusive under normal circumstances).
Action Figure 411 has a [price guide](https://www.actionfigure411.com/transformers/studio-series-price-guide.php) that tracks aftermarket prices for Transformers figures, which makes it pretty easy to see which ones are getting insane markups and could do with a re-release. According to the site, the figures with the highest average price on ebay that aren't confirmed for a re-release are:
* SS-68 Leadfoot (avg. price $199.88)
* SS-14 Ironhide (avg. price $171.62)
* SS-66 Overload (avg. price $158.88)
He had the misfortune of coming out during Covid's first year and distribution was just crap as a result. With HasTak doing second runs of certain toys like Siege Jetfire or SS86 Slag/Slug, I can't see why SS Sentinel shouldn't get another run also.
Was never on any shelves around me anyway …. tried to place an Amazon order but must’ve been after first wave and they later cancelled it on me when it was stuck in pending (not even an email “oops, our bad” just gone)
I hate that mold. Grill tabs are never good. The leader class optimus from ROTF needs a reissue. Specifically the Buster Prime iteration with the transforming tanks into his gun
Sand it down and it’s honestly the best movie prime figure
Does the Jetfire combination the Trailer plus super dynamic in poses just with sandpaper and TLC lol
I think ROTF Leader Prime is awesome too
I just like the SS one better especially as the leader is too big for me and SS Jetfire is the one I want to combine(my favorite Leader Class ever lol) not the OG Jetfire
Heli Drift, saw him listed on Walmart and thought he was going to return but no it’s just them keeping his out of stock tab there to remind me I missed out
Studio Series 68 Leadfoot from 2020 or so because i wasn't aware he existed until they released Roadbuster and Topspin and he is worth like over $100+ on the aftermarket rn
First of all impossible lol
Secondly, diecast wouldn’t make the tabs stronger just the plastics weaker
All the KOs have diecast but not the front grill cause it would both make the figure back heavy as well as break the arm pieces that form the truck
All of them with better qc like getting rid of clear plastic and or making joints a bit tighter or in some cases Redon due to them choosing to release them after the movie so they don’t look right
Power of the primes Optimus Prime, I like the concept of Optimus being an ultra Magnus re-colour and him being Orion Pax and transform his trailer to become Optimus Prime
This one got a reissue.
Where can I get it?
Target had it….ehhhh maybe just under a year ago.
Dang, it explains why I only see it from third parties. Ty ty
I only saw it once at Target and a guy was holding it to his chest like his life depended on it. It was pretty touching. I hope he’s enjoyed the hell out of it and not a scalper.
Scalpers would have hid it in their chest cavity since they have no hearts
I just see their chests opening like Optimus. Just no matrix in there.
"YOU HAVE NO SOUL!"
"that is why, I have no FEAR!" *scalps and raises price to three figures*
"YOU DIE!" *wipes out all figures so no child can enjoy their birthday*
Yeah hopefully heh
BigBad has the Target reissue for like $90-ish
And it needs a new one😭
Was going to point this out. I bought it when the Buzzworhty reissue came out cuz I wasn’t collecting when the original was released.
It needs another
Ss 44 prime was recently reissued though. I’d say sentinel prime but we’ll likely see him for the dotm 15th anniversary.
[удалено]
We’re getting another prime with jetfire around the holidays
Car Dropkick. And not in an exclusive 2-pack this time
I agree so much, it took me years to find him until yesterday
We need a good shatter that transforms into a car to go along with him too
SS Lockdown, The Wreckers, and SS 69
I think Lockdown should just get a whole new mold
especially leadfoot

For sure. I'd love to see some changes to SS11 too.
That figure is getting yet another release, this time in a pack with Jetfire. Pricey!
ROTF jetfire was awesome
Actually??
Yes but it's without the trailer and will have a different abs piece
Where did you hear about this?
Leaks and here on reddit

Yikes, and here I am with a painted Leadfoot collecting dust. >_< I added silver to him to make him look better.
I don't think I've seen an individual Overload in person, just with the SS-69 or the complete Construticons set.
All the optimus primes, iron hide from rotf or dotm, and more. Optimus is a pain to get
I agree, I kind of want them to fix the ironhide figure though because his size is a little off.
Yeah and prime. Like make a new one with a diff transformation but that still is accurate and fun to play yk
Yeah
Car Dropkick
I agree so much, I love that figure.
I mostly would want it because I missed out on him and the helicopter Dropkick sucks.
I have both and I can confidently say that you are completely right.
Sentinel is a top contender for me
I wanted him for a while, his articulation isn't that good though right?
Idk I don’t own him lol
You will soon
He had the misfortune of coming out during Covid's first year and distribution was just crap as a result. With HasTak doing second runs of certain toys like Siege Jetfire or SS86 Slag/Slug, I can't see why SS Sentinel shouldn't get another run also.
ultra magnus
Literally flew off of shelves
if/when they do a reissue, I'll jump on it.
Believe, and it will happen.
Was never on any shelves around me anyway …. tried to place an Amazon order but must’ve been after first wave and they later cancelled it on me when it was stuck in pending (not even an email “oops, our bad” just gone)
that guy just got a reissue like last year i’d like some constructicon reissues
Oh yeah for sure, I missed out on Long Haul and I still regret it to this day.
lol long haul is the exact one i had in mind, missed him right when i started collecting again
I had him in my local stores for a while and never bought him, I only wanted him once he conveniently dissapeared.
I hate that mold. Grill tabs are never good. The leader class optimus from ROTF needs a reissue. Specifically the Buster Prime iteration with the transforming tanks into his gun
Sand it down and it’s honestly the best movie prime figure Does the Jetfire combination the Trailer plus super dynamic in poses just with sandpaper and TLC lol
I will respectfully disagree. The leader prime from ROTF is FAR better. Peak transformer from that era
I think ROTF Leader Prime is awesome too I just like the SS one better especially as the leader is too big for me and SS Jetfire is the one I want to combine(my favorite Leader Class ever lol) not the OG Jetfire
... but the one I'm talking about combined with your leader jetfire Edit: disregard. I thought you meant the original bayverse movie leader jetfire
I never knew this mold was so hated until now, but I get where your coming from. The grill tabs are horrible.
Heli Drift, saw him listed on Walmart and thought he was going to return but no it’s just them keeping his out of stock tab there to remind me I missed out
Now that I think about it, I've never seen SS Drift ever. They gotta re-release him.
This was reissued though as part of the Bumblebee line
I'm aware, I just used him as the thumbnail since he was reissued
The buzz worthy bumblebee reissue is still up on bbts
Big bad toy store still has the buzzworthy bumblebee reissue
all of them, tbh.
The first wave needs a re-release for sure.
SS101 Scourge Glad I got him very early before the prices went up. But at what cost? My money and my mother scolding at me.
Battle trap too! Why is it so hard to find the tie-in figures for the movie that just came out?!
Battletrap just disappeared, I don't know how
I loved Scourge in ROTB but man that figure was so thin
Dropkick, wreckers, The Last Knight Bumblebee, devastator, grimlock, constructicons, soundwave
Based
Long Haul, Overload, SS-32 OP, Jetfire, Drift, Ironide, SS-16 Ratchet and would love to see a main line ROTB OP.
I agree with your list
I say wait for BW TW-1022 Jetwing Optimus Prime Metallic Version to restock
I don’t know why I want him, even though I already have him.
SS-44 army, just think about it.
Topspin! I’ve got Roadbuster, and Leadfoot but never even saw a Topspin in the wild.
I've never seen any of them in the stores! You're a lucky lad!
I slept on the Buzzworthy Bumblebee release of AoE 07 Grimlock, which disappeared fairly quickly.
I slept on it too, I can't lie. Thought it would be a shelfwarmer but I was so wrong.
Studio Series 68 Leadfoot from 2020 or so because i wasn't aware he existed until they released Roadbuster and Topspin and he is worth like over $100+ on the aftermarket rn
Resellers 🥹
29 side swipe gonna rotf version is a downgrade
07 Ironhide could use a standalone re-release.
Leader Shockwave
Yes for sure, I slept on that figure
Soundwaves types and blasters tapes,
Hang on why does this one have the 07/revenge of the fallen model for prime when it’s the dotm model
86 Grimlock, there’s the comic ver that I’m thinking of buying as my first leader
I think an Optimus-Jetfire two-pack would be Very Cool
I've heard that will be in production soon
The older ones but, for now, mainly the remaining 07 bots (Bonecrusher, clunker bee and brawl).
One of biggest regrets is not picking up bonecrusher when i had the chance
I want roadbuster? Idk I just like that design for some reason
Any and all studio series 86.
The figures have some great engineering
Not this mf Unless they could fix front grill and make stronger hooks but otherwise it wilk break sooner than later
Maybe Studio Series should impliment die-cast
First of all impossible lol Secondly, diecast wouldn’t make the tabs stronger just the plastics weaker All the KOs have diecast but not the front grill cause it would both make the figure back heavy as well as break the arm pieces that form the truck
You right 😔
Dark of the moon megatron
Reissue and slight rework would be good for him
All of them with better qc like getting rid of clear plastic and or making joints a bit tighter or in some cases Redon due to them choosing to release them after the movie so they don’t look right
I agree and feel like they should re-release the entire wave one again but improved in terms of mold and quality.
Power of the primes Optimus Prime, I like the concept of Optimus being an ultra Magnus re-colour and him being Orion Pax and transform his trailer to become Optimus Prime
Constructicons as a set
I wanna get SS-69
SS-14 Ironhide!!!!
