Since I seriously started collecting fresh out of college about 20 years ago, a big modern Thundertank toy has always been one of the unmade grails.

But I ultimately sold my entire Ultimates collection, along with the rest of my Super7 toys (except for the Keshi figures) just because I was getting tired of dealing with S7's QC issues (mainly crappy paint, but other things as well), which they tend to be completely unapologetic for...Flynn and his customer service crew as well. And I was also tired of dealing with the increased prices that weren't accompanied by an increase in quality. I was seriously buying 2-3 of each figure just to get one that looked decent and like it should, and I didn't want to have to keep doing that for the rest of the line. Had to get out of the TMNT Ultimates line, too, much as I always wanted modernized Playmates figs, once I saw the cheapass and breakage-prone joints used on some of the figures (like the Foot Soldier).

That said, I've got no hate for S7. Just don't want their stuff anymore. I'm sure this will sell. Once this toy starts shipping and is no longer in production, it's gonna double and triple in value. Happy for all the fans who are finally getting a chance to get this.
