I was fortunate enough to find Earthrise Optimus, Grapple, and Astrotrain today after work. After looking at Optimus' trailer for a few minutes, I absolutely agree with you that it's almost too grey, and a bit of blue would have helped

Awesome, you got him. Which store? I do want Grapple, Astrotrain I will pass. A GS employee that works in my building on base, got Starscream, I checked him out today. Have to say jet mode, beautiful. Robot mode is not bad but dang in jet mode, colors are amazing. My opinion, the Erath Rise line might just be that way, either vehicle mode or robot mode will be appealing but depending on the figure, it may not be both.

Again, glad you got them,

I got them from the Short Pump Target, which is unusual because that location is normally slow to get the latest releases on the shelf quickly. I'm pleased with Grapple, although some aspects might have been done better. Overall though, IMO these Seige (WFC & ER) have been knocking it out of the park. After viewing the review videos, I can't wait to pick up Starscream. I'm happy that they are showing up.

That is a surprise. I agree, Grapple has some issue but in think the robot mode makes up for it.

But agree, good to finally see them out.

I just found Starscream (which I picked up) and ER Astrotrain at the Target in Mechanicsville. I see what you mean about the colours and his jet mode - very nice!

Sadly my Grapple broke today.. I was transforming him into robot mode, and the peg that attaches the crane assembly to the bottom of his foot snapped off. I could feel it was really tight when putting him into his alt mode, and should have shaved the peghole
