    It appears the 3rd mode of Mainframe/Teletraan is the control deck of the Ark. If that is the case, I believe the top of the Ark (window section) will open and Mainframe/Teletraan will fit inside. He'll have interaction with the Ark, but the Ark will still be complete in both modes without him.
    I just don't see any other way he can plug into/onto the Ark or robot chest.

    Selects, yes. Mainline, not so much.

    That ship looks horribly bad and wayyyyyyyyyyy too small to be the Revenge. Looks more like a Shuttle from the Revenge, rather than the Revenge itself.

    The Ark now has a fighting chance against Trypticon this time around!

    So I popped on Pulse just to see if any of these new figures were listed. Surprised I could add the Ark to my cart. Went to checkout and it flipped to sold out.

    Now I'm sad. I hadn't been following closely enough to realize these went live this afternoon. :( 

    Can I assume Target, Amazon, Walmar.com and all the rest will get this eventually? I'll say that Titan Skorponok wasn't this difficult last year.

    Galvatron looks incredible, but part of me hopes that the treads on his arms can be unscrewed, then he'd look perfect to me.

    Tracks also looks really solid. I've wanted a new figure for him for the longest time and this one looks promising. Hoping Perceptor gets a new figure at some point--he's the other one I've long wanted a new version of.

    I agree. I must the world's worst searcher on Amazon. I can see all the other new Kingdom figures, but cannot fathom what they've got the Ark filed under. It's probably be pretty obvious. Or I'll just wait to see if some of the specialty stores offer pre-orders on it.

    Any other Canadians get upgraded to Pulse Premium? Had gotten the pre-party last night and when I logged in today, noticed that I had premium membership.

    Certainly didn’t pay for it as you don’t get free shipping to Canada.

    Got my Joe figs, Ark and Scorponok....

    If something sells well, Hasbro isn't going to ignore it. This kind of thinking is simply ridiculous.

    When they make two toys from a series in three years they can't get reliable sales data regardless do they?

    Corporations do this all of the time, it's how they test the waters.

    Did that stop Kingdom from happening? Where was the mountainous sales data on that?

    Clearly they must pay attention to what is selling or else we would've never gotten the huge BW push now.

    I count three pterodactyls/pteranodons on the Ark box.

    Wingfinger, Terrorsaur, and perhaps one other?

    Or maybe Terrorsaur, Lazorbeak, and Fractyl?
