    Me too. I ordered mine in February during a BOGO50 and $20 voyagers sale, so got two of them for $30!

    Ordered mine during the same sale, paired him up with Snapdragon. Snapdragon shipped just fine back in early September, but the Judge just keeps getting pushed back. It's getting really irritating.

    Yeah that's what makes me feel worse, I got two for $30 while others are still waiting on their first

    If E28 is skipped does that mean we'll be missing a map piece?

    If I may ask, was ER Sideswipe going to be a retool with an earth mode, or a re-release of the Siege toy? Becuase the Siege toy comes relatively close to an earth alt mode.

    that was kinda my thinking too, something like those Amazon exclusives.

    there's a number of "low hanging fruit" repaints that could fit the bill like Road Hauler, Blue Bluestreak or any other Diaclone options or Seeker repaints. Those are usually shunted off to Selects, but if they wanted to "complete" the numbering, pretty easy to drop a "standard release" at Amazon like Ironhide/Prowl and Dirge/Ramjet. or make a repaint/remold that fits into Earthrise from Kingdom like Road Rage.

    Oddly enough, I think we just need Thrust and Runabout to finish the map.

    Well i still hope it comes out regardless of what it would be. A two pack makes the most sense and i would guess its Amazon. I would love a rando Seeker (Nacelle maybe) taking on Sideswipe (earth mode) but the OCD part of me just wants to see that spot get identified. Two more GO sets need to be released and who knows maybe we get a Bluestreak formal reveal so maybe we will see it there. But if not then its ok. its just a toy and i can save some money.

    Well that sucks. Thanks for the confirmation maybe I'll get Siege Sideswipe and the others after all or wait to see if they get released as Generation Selects during Kingdom next year.

    I'm partial to a two pack of Sideswipe and Hound myself, but another seeker to add to the Decepticon Air Force would be nice too.

    I thought I saw something about a white Ironworks repaint on the boards. Has this been proven fake / wishful thinking yet?

    Those were just space filler, there were no silhouettes for Ratchet, Lifeline, the Autobot Clones or the Micromasters, so it shouldn't be taken that those silhouettes are for figures actually in the line

    But it was teasing more after the galactic odyssey itself was revealed with ratchet and lifeline so i would think its a hint for whats to come

    Then where were the silhouettes for the Autobot clones and Micromasters? Again, it was just used to fill space, it shouldn't be taken as being figures that are actually in the line

    yeah i would have loved for something to come from those silhouettes but they were just filler. Hopefully by month end we will know the rest of the sets but we can expect the Tapout/Glyph pair using the Cliffjumper mold but we have no real clue on the last set. Send your prayers to Thor, Baal, the black hole at the center of the universe and hope that they actually release E28 and that the last set wets your whistle.

    You know they could always do another Amazon Exclusive set for Kingdom. They said the plot involves a time warp right? Maybe they’ll do a Temporal Odyssey with several characters scattered throughout time?
