And Ironhide. At NYCC 2018, he had black wheels and some extra detail.

 

So dumb that all these figures are on pre order at Pulse yet here they are dropping at retailers. Smh. Still can’t figure it out, eh Hasbro?

 

No, there's something even worse going on: my local Targets are restocking the Thundercracker/Megatron wave!   It's the worst feeling, when you see the TF section getting restocked and you're excited... only to find out they are restocking older toys!  

Your hatred for millenials is delicious!   Also, the description accurate!   Effing stupid beards and man-buns...

 

I've been saying for years...there is a not insignificant part of this forum who're adults that have yet to realize they've outgrown Transformers and are angry, in part, because they're forcing themselves to remain interested when clearly they are not.

When they're bitching about the shade of white on a kids toy, it's time to move on. They're not having fun anymore.

 

Well you know how it is when you go hunting for toys in retail. The lucky few get the first shipment. Then you give up wasting time and gas and buy em online. Then they show up in bunches at the store the week after you got them.

 

Mirage also suffered pretty bad, his render has white arms and a painted windshield/canopy.

 

Apeface's torso is the exact same material and nearly the exact same color as the nylon guitar picks I use, and I'm a pretty ham-fisted guitarist, so if they can stand up to that sort of abuse I'm sure your new monkey buddy will be fine  

I do have to admit Apeface is weirdly tempting for me, I try to avoid buying Decepticons but I love the Headmasters and I want to support the gimmick wherever I can. If I happen to come across one somewhere I can't say I wouldn't go for it.
