    I’ll definitely be picking up that hot shot. Need the hound mold but don’t care for hound. Best alternative plus we kinda saw it coming months ago.

    I’ll probably do that 10-pack too.

    eBay. Some of the overseas sellers had them in stock with quick shipping options.

    Huh, sounds interesting. I'm happy with the retail release, but will get this as well.

    Gads, why the Chromia mold?
    Oh well, I'm sticking with the Takara Legends version indefinitely.

    All in. A thousand percent all in.

    If they do G1 accurate Whirl and Roadbister, I'll be thrilled.

    I’m doubtful as to the legitimacy of that list. Is he a hasbro employee? How does he have this info? How does he have figures that aren’t supposed to be out for months?

    When it comes to stuff like this I’m a skeptic by nature, but would love to be proven wrong. Also we know barricade doesn’t have a new gun, he has the same 2 guns as smokescreen and they can combine

    Is this true? Because if so then the G1 toy Reflector and Shackwave repaints sound amazing. :D  I had a feeling Cybertron Hot Shot was coming sooner or later but it's still good to see he's happening. :)

    To retail release, that gun could be considered new. Especially since barricade is coming out September with wave 4. Gs smokescreen is being released October.

    Plus he may have gotten it the same way another poster had gotten ratchet and bluestreak, 2 figures technically not even announced.

    Yes, but this is too much info. Half the list is known rumors or facts and the other half just sounds like a wishlist. And the wording of the gun for barricade implies a new gun in addition to the shoulder guns

    It is only the the JP TF that actually tries to explain the mythos. If the Hb side tries to shoehorn him to the PRE Earth war, that will be some serious retconing as the "master" technology only began post Nebulos. Starsaber is a Brainmaster. Even the titanmaster is like Exmachina creation aka a very useless fanwank forced incorporation into G1.

    Star saber doesnt exist in hasbro g1 canon and siege canon has masters existing prewar. No retconning is necessary because while siege is heavily influenced by g1 it is not g1.

    In the barricade promo shot, his shoulder guns are his handheld gun.

    with the extra info, I don’t blame you for being suspicious but judging by his history, he had/has channels connected to takara/hasbro.

    Wasn’t sure about his history or sources, if he’s had accurate info in the past then I’ll hope it’s all true :)  I want more seekers!

    The other thought related to this I have in handling him, is I now wish Overlord was this size instead of a Leader class.

    Seems odd to me they'd de-list him rather than label him as out of stock.

    I can be super patient, I just start getting less so when I'm excited about something that's coming in the mail.
    I, personally, was happy about the delay. Gives me time to save up for Omega. I can understand how it would be annoying to you, though. Hope things work out!
