| − | Many fans were extremely angered by the news that the [[Seekers]] were to be part of the convention-exclusive set, as both [[Starscream (G1)|Starscream]] and [[Skywarp (G1)|Skywarp]] were released at regular retail. One possible explanation for this is that they are a bunch of deeply stupid, entitled whiney crybabies who need to get over themselves and their martyr complexes, and realize that this is the only way they would get these figures at all. |
