They use the Japanese Legends head sculpts.

 

yeah, amazon can be hit or miss with the packing sometimes...but they usually get stuff in quicker than pulse or bbts

as for Studio Series adding the animation movie characters...well it does allow them to do whatever they want for future lines and not be chained down to G1 as those characters can be shuttled over to Studio (and it pretty much allows them to add any G1 character from the toons if they grandfather them in)...

 

Hasbro Pulse doesn't have any release dates for any of the Studio Series.

 

Thanks to the Target sale, I got my Jazz for Free.

 

Hot Rod at Target finally up

Transformers Studio Series 86 Voyager The Transformers: The Movie Autobot Hot Rod

 

Walmart preorder experience is very bad. They cancelled my preorders many times.

 

Good news is, I got 2 SS Scourges. Bad news is, I should've been allowed to buy 3  

 

Just got my Thrust order in. Though, with how much more available the first Seeker set is, I really think Thrust should have been part of a 3 Conehead Seeker set that was a Target exclusive. It would have been $90, but it would be a hell of a lot less than the current going prices for the conehead set which was terribly underproduced.

 

Target is a great option.... way better customer service then Amazon.

 

SS86 is on Target and available for the $10 off $50 or $25 off $100 in toys deal!

Transformers Studio Series 86-02 Deluxe The Transformers: The Movie Kup

Transformers Studio Series 86-01 Deluxe The Transformers The Movie Autobot Jazz

Transformers Studio Series 86 Voyager The Transformers: The Movie Autobot Hot Rod

Transformers Studio Series 86 Voyager The Transformers: The Movie Scourge

Transformers Studio Series 86-06 Leader The Transformers: The Movie Grimlock and Autobot Wheelie

If you're only getting Thrust and Runabout, add a Bot Bot blind pack to get that $10 off $50 deal since it's $49.98 without: Transformers BotBots Series 3 Collectible Blind Bag Mystery Figure - Surprise 2-In-1 Toy

 

I sure hope it's a typo when they say Jazz is 4.5". That's awfully small.

 

I personally don't care what each "line" means or does. If I see a figure I like of a character I have interest in, I buy it. So SS has room for all in my heart, and hopefully after Kingdom there will really be multiple generations in Generations.

 

As someone who cancelled their Airwave and is on the verge of cancelling Overload...they have great customer service but even the best customer service can't save your figures from going in to permanent backorder.

 

Yep. I got all six SS86 for less than $150, including tax. Hard to beat that.

 

I don't think Firebolt as he was released in Siege as Firedrive. Only Recoil and Haywire as those 2 haven't really had a recent release.

 

Just ordered everthing except for Jazz that dropped for SS 86 today

 

Just got Thrust. I didn't feel the need to get Runabout until I see Runamuck on shelves. As for SS86, I'll wait until I see them in person.

 

I just grabbed Grimlock and Jazz SS wise, I got the major discount cause i got Runabout and Thrust for a friend.

 

Yes. It was announced as such on stream.

 

Ouch! Better eat lots of fiber!
