iGear’s Unofficial F-22 Seekers, “Raptor Squadron,” Up for Pre-Order
These are very likely to ship too late to appear in my Transforming Expectations book (back the Kickstarter project!), but that doesn’t stop the Raptor Squadron from looking stunning. I’ve seen some complaints online about the head and comments that the chest looks like a bird face, but my opinion is that these really look incredible and are likely to make a nice addition to any “Seeker” display.
Two different three packs are available to pre-order now at Big Bad Toy Store and at site sponsor TFSource, so if you like what you see click through for a closer look.
Set One: Big Bad Toy Store, TFSource
Set Two: Big Bad Toy Store, TFSource
The cost is killing me on these as I do not think we have seen the size yet.
Waiting for some comparison pics, but the coneheads are always a release I can get behind.
As far as I know the first post in this thread has the only comparison pic that’s out now.

Too bad the pic wasn’t with a Hasbro Classics Seeker. Or even a 1984/85 Seeker.
The size is nice, really like the designs for the second set.
Even at approx. Voyager size these are a hefty weight on the wallet. Selling them individually would probably obtain more pre-orders – I know I’d love to get that Skywarp and, eventually, maybe Thundercracker and one of the coneheads.
At least iGear have given themselves a LOT of time up front for getting them ready.
