Coming to us via Chefatron on YouTube we can share for you a new set of in-hand images of the Transformers Legacy Core Class Thundercracker.
Following our first images of this new redeco of the original Kingdom Core Starscream, now we have a nice set of new images showing Thundercracker next to the Core Starscream and Skywarp (this one with custom null ray cannons) in both modes and comparison shots next to other Core class toys. We still haven’t got an official confirmation of this figure but keep in mind that we had previously reported a Lecacy Core Thundercracker listing for 2023.
See all the images after the break, as well as Chefatron video review, and then join to the ongoing discussion on the 2005 Boards!

Yeah they all have guns but only Starscream has "null-rays". I'm just being an ass mate lol
despicablebhao
didnt all the seekers have guns, knowing a pr of screamer, they are 100% doing reprints non stop of them (if core class got room)
Dexatronic
None… Skywarp never had null-rays. Only Starscream has ever had null-rays…. Yes im being that guy lol. I wish he would come with his guns tho. I just bought another screamer and re-printed his.
despicablebhao
So whats the chance at a possible skywarp repackage with his nullray this time….

Probably black, because it's on the same sprue as the other black parts.

Looks good! Can't wait to complete my Core Class Seeker trio.

I wonder what the official Hasbro take would have been on Skywarp's weapons…black or purple…
Scaleface
I can print them at home in purple or black resin.

It helps when they are spaces out so that way I can buy each as they go on discount and not have scramble to find all three at the same time

I concur.
But I am kind of tired of these situations where it literally takes years, and multiple retail outlets, to get all the Seekers in new assortment.
On the one hand, I get it.
Hasbro presumably doesn't want what is essentially the same character in different colors on the shelves at the same time.
But then I have a hard time reconciling their aversion to releasing Starscream in three different colors at once when at any given time the store shelves may contain Earthrise Starscream, Warrior Class Starscream, One Step Starscream, Smash-n-go Starscream, Election Denying Starscream, and Mormon Starscream all occupying the same toy aisle.
And I haven't even approached the coneheads in this scenario.

That mark on the nose would drive me crazy.

Honestly all the core-class deceptions are bangers. Glad they added thundercracker!

Basically he got really behind and burnt out due to being behind and other life situations. Ultimately though he made good and either shipped out outstanding orders or refunded those that he couldn't ship out. He's said that JRC may come back at some point but for now it's closed down (I'm sure there's more details in his thread, but that's pretty much the gist of it).
I don't think it said that adults were a majority, just the largest section of growth in the industry. Could still be a minority but also be the fastest growing demographic

Didn't that article come out recently with that terribly coined term, which said adults WERE a majority of the buying market?
I don't recall the number, I'm just saying/askin?
gbm
He really needs to stop doing that. I like him as a reviewer, but that is just entirely unnecessary and he rambles on about it for half the review.
Sy-Rein
Yep, TC is looking good for such a small figure. I can hardly wait to get this pint-sized Thunder jet in my collection.
POSSESSED_DIGIT
I thought something was up there. What happened?
Fenrys
Unfortunately, JRC is defunct for the foreseeable future, so null rays would have to be sourced elsewhere

How badly beaten with a pencil was Thundercracker in this review
