I think the sample used for the photos at Hasbro Pulse just had its legs misasembled, resulting in a mis-matched cassette mode from both sides. As you can see in all the actual in-hand packaging photos, he looks normal in cassette mode, which means the photos at Hasbro Pulse are (thankfully) inaccurate to the final product.

 

So happy to get the Autobots I didn’t bother to open frenzy yet   will do tonight

 

Since its open - the weapons - do they happen to have plastic stub paint/rubber covering on the peg hole stubs? I've noticed for a while now that these are varying on the amount on each stub from minimal to significant. Just curious.

 

I m not sure i understand but there is no extra rubber on the toy, its one piece of the same plastic in chrome

 

and there's an idea Hasbro should definitely look into if they ever re-release these guys

 

Hasbro Pulse's release delayed to the week of the 16th

 

They're literally just re-releasing them!

 

Psst... that was in response to a quote about rereleasing them in Dinobot colors as future possible reuse.

 

Hoping this picture works. In the Bumblebee Retro v1+2 releases, there was either paint or rubber around the parts for the cassette holes (see picture) bumblebee retro vol 3 - Bing images

Looking to see if that design continued with the weapons in this line. They were not ever consistent in the amount they used per weapon & I went through 25 sets to find the matching amounts for 4 complete pairs between v1 & 2. Appearance consistencies are everything when you display as many of us know.

 

Who else has already got this set and combined Noizu and Gurafi into Decibel and had him flop backwards cause Noizu’s neck joint is so loose? Mine started doing it the first time after a couple seconds! I really like this set, but is so annoying that Decibel cand stay up! Does anyone have any suggestions on how to fix this issue?

 

Clear nail polish?

 

The fact that the cards are fused makes me think maybe they will fold over? Like stacking two carded figures. Might be able to store easy that way. Can anyone confirm this?

 

I never noticed they were fused. Interesting

 

Any update on these? Yesterday came and went and the only update I see is that they’re sold out. Has anyone got a shipping notice or anything?

 

My card was charged this morning for this set. I expect a shipping notice by the end of the day!

 

Same here.

 

Let us hope the shipments arrive w/o complication & none of us need to try & seek damage replacements...cause a sold out item tends to not have them aye?

 

Since these items are more than 19.99, if we try to return them because they are damaged, they'll tell you that you need to pay for shipping. That happened with my Legacy Green Ranger/Putty 2 pack - had really sloppy paint and black paint splotches on the shield. Really pissed me off so I won't be ordering from Pulse any more.

 

Pretty much what is happening to mine too  

 

Got my shipping notice for the set.
