    Nice God Neptune, I see Pulse has authorized charges for mine and Super Megatron, but waiting on ship notification and got Tigertrack from them today.

    The engine/gun doesn't even need to be removed for transformation. From car mode, if you just turn it 180 degrees it's in that orientation for robot mode, really nice! But ya, the not-quite-matching yellow paint vs. plastic is visible in person too.

    I’ll get it if they do thrust. Someone on set confirmed the green conehead was meant to be Armada thrust.

    Also took @Darkhawk79 advice on the RED series being at Bryant Walmart!!
    LOVE the packaging! 'Specially with the extra hands and weapons being displayed in box! 20201105_083347.jpg 20201105_083356.jpg 20201105_083405.jpg Laserbeak is SOOPER tiny and doesnt transform... :(  20201105_094747.jpg 20201105_094752.jpg But for a non-transforming figure; hes VERY dense and solid with no hollow parts and really good articulation with double jointed elbows and knees to give those deep knee and elbow bends. 20201105_094812(1).jpg 20201105_134150_HDR(1).jpg 20201105_134323_HDR(1).jpg And here he is at home. 20201105_163008(1).jpg 20201105_163014(1).jpg 20201105_163026(1).jpg 20201105_163040(1).jpg

    Glad you like the figure, it's not bad looking and basically it's an action figure like a Marvel Legend. Got the Optimus for my dad and haven't opened it or anything but they look good and if you just some display bots in robot form, these are the way to go

    Yeah, he REALLY has some heft to him, mostly in the legs but its all solid plastic with no hollow parts that is definitely on par with an action figure.

    I'll get him if they do a Skywarp repaint for sure. I bet it would look amazing in black, purple, and silver.

    I did get my Ironhide and Prowl and 3 out of 4 of the wave three deluxes. Sunstreaker is so far my favorite (and the only one I have opened). I'm glad the yellow looks alot better in person than online photos would lead to believe. Only issue I have (along with others it seems) is the roof not sitting flush in car mode. Only ER I'm missing now is ER Runamuck (Amazon delayed my order) and Runabout and Thrust.

    Maybe it is then, these are "authorized charges" now, but not actually charged. I did get an email that Pulse has pushed back the Nemesis Prime spoiler pack to November 16th.

    Since my area isn't going to have any new transformers, my hunting will have to go out of town for now. And online. Walmart ,walgreens won't stock transformers, on shelf anymore. Due to poor sales, in area. Not trying to rant but with Christmas coming they are doing this.

    No worries about the venting. I know Covid has caused some supply issues but Wal-Mart has always been messed up stocking. I know I mentioned this before but Russellville Wal-Mart's toy section was bad during the Christmas right after TRU closed. They had advertisements promoting them being the new go to toy store yet there was hardly any product and this was the first week of December. I ended up snapping some pictures and forwarding it to Wal-Mart corp. A few days later, there was someone who I assumed was the department manager going over the section with two people who looked and dressed like a couple of Wal-Mart higher ups. A few days after that, shelves were filled. Granted it was filled with product from other lines not necessarily product that hadn't been restocked in a while. The TF section was filled with Jurassic World toys.

    I only wish my Wal-Mart looked that good. They don't even carry generations stuff anymore or 2/3 of any of that. Two columns of pegs is all.

    Eh, I'm not worried about delays like this much. They haven't taken my money yet, so when it happens, it happens.
