My Walmart finally got Wave 1 Deluexes...when I'm out of money until next month and only missing Cliffjumper at this point...
I don't think I ever saw Ironhide in person. I got lucky with him and got him when he was in stock online at Target. But one of the waves that seemed barely stocked around me was the deluxe wave with Barricade and Sideswipe. Movie accuracy, duh!
That wave was restocked by Walmarts towards the end of the year, and then again a few months back. The distribution was screwy on that. Even more so with Ironhide since he was treated as a half wave voyager. He had an accompanying wave but I think a lot of it had to do with the previous voyagers shelfwarming. I know Megatron and Starscream lingered for quite a while, so many stores likely never ordered a case of him and pushed out old stock as some of it disappeared. That’s what my stores do, as that’s why my Target never put out ER voyagers until last week when Siege Megatron and Thundercracker started to sell. Sucks he never got rereleased though, his distribution sucked.
Does anyone know how to contact Pulse with missing items? On Oct 2nd Rotorstorm was marked as delivered, yet no one came up our driveway that way per the porch cam. I sent them an email since phones and chat are closed, it's been 12 days now and no response. My Pit of Judgement and Centurions got marked as "delivered" at 10am today, despite no fedex guy again this time. I did receive both a USPS parcel and a UPS parcel on the porch today, just no Pulse items. I've called Fedex about both and they say to contact Hasbro. However hasbropulse no longer seems to have any sort of way to contact them. The pit of judgement emails say Contact Us if there is a problem, but the link is a Noreply link.
I don’t know much about how to contact them about that, but I know that when I emailed them about missing parts it took them a month to respond, at which point I had already bought a replacement.
The predacus is a botcon exclusive so it’s obviously going to be expensive, soundwave, shockwave, and tidal wave are pretty old figures so people usually sell them for more but I’ll agree they are really overpriced, and the other ones are 3rd party so they are usually really expensive
Okay but 1000 for a CW combiner? Also none of what I posted here was 3P, the three boxed were Unite Warriors boxsets. These prices are irresposible
Because the UW boxsets were a easy way to obtain a full combiner team , And they always had the better deco: People bought em' all up until they became hard to obtain
I have 0 reason to, but I hate the name Autonomous Maximus. It just sounds so unwieldy and try hardy. Is it even canon? Last Autobot is a fine enough name as is, much shorter. It sounds like calling a dog by its scientific Latin name
I take it as something like that, he was a great warrior and recived a demigod status from 13 primes/Primus, but it was so long ago that his name was lost to history. But that's just me. But why would he be called a Last Autobot, when the Autobot and Decepticon was a millions of years away? Bc legends/light our darkest hour/etc? I feel like TF lore is sometimes too mythological.
The instructions are awful. I'm getting to be an old man, I guess, and i am having a hard time reading the instructions for some of these figures. If it wasn't for Emgo or Peaugh, I don't think I'd ever get anything past deluxes transformed. The instructions for MPM 10 were awful. So small and dark. I know, I know...old man...get off my lawn and stuff.
Customer: People that collect MISB are stupid. Boxes and cards are worthless garbage. I rip everything I buy open like a human wood chipper. But everything I want is scalped to death. Seller: Great! I just got a case from Embarrassment Earth with a few dings that would be perfect for you. Now, retail price is... Customer: What?! Damaged packaging?! I demand a 50% discount! And free shipping for my trouble...
Me: Finally finds ER Wave 2 Deluxes in retail. Hasbro: Decides now would be a great time to release Wave 3... after I spent 60 bucks for Allicon, Arcee, and Smokescreen. Me:
