Walmart exclusive MASTERPIECE SKYWARP is here in California!

Post by NUCKATRON »

Whats up ladies and gents, just wanted to report in on my new find.

After a whole week of going to my local Walmart twice a day in Paramount California, looking for the long awaited Walmart Exclusive Masterpiece Skywarp, I FINNALY FOUND IT!!! There were only two left so I snagged them both. :D

I love the fact that there aren't any stickers to mess with or ruin. Great paint aps!!! And at $60 USD a pop, I'm pretty sure they aren't going to last very long on store shelves. Steal of a deal if you ask me.


(Sorry about the wonky picture quality, the only camera i have is my cellphone cam....)

No mam, the most of it is molded in black plastic that has a flat black look to it as opposed to the gloss finish on the Japanese version. The silvers, and purples are all painted on. Also the nosecone is actually molded in purple plastic, but is painted flat black to match the finish of the rest of the jet.

Personally, i like this version more over the Japanese version. Not only is it more G1 accurate, the flat black is more realistic to the jet than the Japanese glossy finish. I think the "glossy shine" kills the realism.

Not that there would be a real jet painted up like Skywarp, but you get what i'm saying.

Hasbro did a great job representing the original Skywarp G1 color scheme.

If and when I can get to my local argos [which stocks him here in the UK] I'll be picking one up for £40. (even though I already own the takara version)

Thanks MandySeven! :P

I think i bought at least one of every WST he makes. :wink: HeeroToysMaker is AWESOME. Way more g1 accurate transformations than the Takara WST's.

I too paid for my WST G2 Starscream and Ramjet, but its been like 3 weeks, and i still havent gotten them.....

Whats up with those little packs that go ontop of the G2 jets? They dont actually do anything on the WST's right?

Right on Mandyseven, i'll do the same! 8) Heres a pic of just some of the HeeroToysMaker jets I bought over the last couple months.

Also, i'm getting a bonus from Heero, he told me he included a gangload of free stickers for the jets i bought off him in the past!
He just recently started offering those sticker sheets for his jets, and since i bought over a hundred WSTs from him, he's hookin it up. What a guy, LOL.

There are SHELVES full of them in Oregon, TT. $60.00, no tax. Though I'm fairly certain... didn't Screamer start at $45.00?

If you want me to pick one up for you, I'm heading through Oregon on Tuesday. It'd probably come out comparably, shipping cost vs. Florida tax rate.

Let me know... I'm cash fluid enough that I can pick it up AND mail it to you before you ever pay.

I spotted like twenty at our local Wal-Mart and told my uncle, and he is going to purchase it for me for Christmas. I can't stand the wait.
