Courtesy of friend site and sponsor Dorkside Toys we can share for you new stock images of the new Transformers Earthrise “Cybertronian Villians” Decepticon Clones 2-Pack New Stock Images.
We finally have a look at the packaging of Pounce and Wingspan for their Earthrise release as a Target exclusive in the US. It a very nice windowed box with the toys packed in robot mode with a beautiful art of their beast modes in the center. This is a good chance to grab the clones since they were kind of hard to find since Pounce was available only in the “Siege Of Cybertron” set and Wingspan was sold in a 2-pack together with Cloudraker as a Walgreens exclusive.
Check the new images after the jump and then sound off on the 2005 Boards!

That's a different country where the contact with Amazon likely doesn't apply. It's also a web shop exclusive release direct through Takara.

Siege Skywarp got / is getting (I've lost track of the date involved) a release through Takara in Japan. Still no good to the rest of the world, but still ever so slightly better than never.
But yes, I'd bet on never seeing the Coneheads anywhere else.
FU Amazon, and FU Hasbro.

I don't think Amazon exclusives ever get reissued, especially not outside of Amazon.

Now my hopes are up even higher than before for conehead reissues, they better do it

Speaking of that:

You just didn't necessarily get your pre-order fulfilled.
Hopefully they'll be available later through other outlets, the way the Thundercracker/Skywarp set is being rereleased.

Just 1 seller iirc. US$269.00

If either of you are serious, I'd appreciate a good deal on a set… I don't scalp or price gouge figures I buy at original cost, and I usually buy 2 and help out others down the road… I missed the boat on the coneheads.

Huh. I haven't opened mine yet, and am not hugely fond of the mold to begin with. I'm also tempted.

Just checked eBay, can't believe these guys are selling for $250+
Tempted to sell my trio now

Amazon Canada still hasn't fulfilled preorders from July 2020 when they 1st were available.
Im starting to believe they were on that container ship that sunk
Fafnir72
Later Mid 2020 iirc.
Nemesis Baser
The coneheads? Nah. They were available for almost a month to pre-order.
JJJ
Sold out in hours (middle of the night for everywhere that wasn't the US), I seem to recall from the chatter at the time. Just like every other damned exclusive these days.
SurlyJ
I have flat hopes
if they never come, whatever. I’ll either deal with it or one day eat the price on a used set.
how long ago were they initially released btw?

All I’m going to say is don’t get your hopes up. I’m with pixelmaster here in thinking that dirge and ramjet will most likely not be restocked which definitely sucks because I know a lot of people missed out on them.
