My Coneheads were and anxiety attack getting to me. LOL I got charged, they took the money, and nothing shipped for 2 and a half weeks. I was afraid of the dreaded cancel! I ordered them day 1 within minutes of the listing going live, but they did show up almost 4 weeks to the day I was charged.

My Prowl/Ironhide was similar, and when it showed up, not in a box with a shipping label slapped on it, it looked like it had been through pure hell!

I really hope they handle their exclusives better this time around. They did seem to get better with the Galactic Odyssey sets

I feel the same way as you do about some of these sets. Like I already had The Amazon POTPs Punch/Counterpunch but I wanted Barricade. I did end up throwing the 2nd one in with my headmasters since the Amazon one is with the Decepticons.

Don't forget Red Alert still needs an earth mode too!

And Red Alert!

 

Walgreens in the future.

 

Oh joy! Lol

 

those who have had preorders on amazon cancelled on them, were you prime members? I've never had mine cancelled

 

True but I am more concerned with my 84 Autobots more so then 85. But I do have an unhealthy obsession with the 84 crew while the 85 Autobot cars and mini cars do not matter to me as much.

 

Yes, it probably didn't help that I placed both of mine less than a month before the release date but I remember seeing posts early on that people who had placed orders during the first month had their orders cancelled or postponed meanwhile people who had ordered around the same time I did were already getting theirs (not sure about the Prime status of those other two groups though).

 

Is Grimlock going to be a repaint of the Kingdom Dinobot mold?

 

yo i found a listing for the sideswipe and nightprowler 2 pack on amazon au: https://www.amazon.com.au/Hasbro-Tr...pe-Nightprowler/dp/B08SWJ25NL?ref_=ast_sto_dp

 

Yup. because BW Grimlock was a redeco of BW Dinobot in Old BW toyline.

 

What? The 85 crew rules. So much cooler then the 84s   

(I have no idea why, but I always gravitated more to the entire 85 line up more then 84 - Jetfire and Smokescreen have always been my favorite characters, plus shockwave, omega Supreme, dinobots, insecticons, constructions, coneheads, hoist, red alert, inferno, grapple, tracks... all so good. WAAAAAAAY cooler minibots. 85 4 life!)

 

Awesome, maybe I should cancel my order on regular Dinobot and wait for Grimlock then...

 

Very excited for this, finally a proper G1 Mirage without clear plastic cringe

 

Yeah, that listing was found a few weeks ago.

 

When it comes to the 1985 line up the ones who I think are the coolest are Jetifre and the Dinobots but in terms of cars and minicars I am basic and will go with the 84 crew. Although Inferno is awesome because I got the early 2000s reissue as a kid as a present. I think it mostly because they just came first so I want all of them to have a definitive CHUG toy first is all.

 

so that was confirmed then? Is there a listing?

 

If we get Predacon/Decepticon two packs to counter these Maximal/Autobot two packs my money is on Lazorbeak and Buzz Saw for the Deluxe half and some Seekers for the Voyager half. I would be very happy if they were Ramjet and Dirge, but they’ll probably be some Seekers who haven’t gotten made yet.

 

I am definitely waiting for Grimlock. I am very excited about this.

 

Amazon Germany just sent me a mail to let me know that the set will be delivered September 3rd. Trying to access the item page again still doesn’t work though.

 

These so far are only available outside the US, right?

 

Tight. Siege Mirage was my first Generations Transformers figure, definitely want an Earth mode Mirage - even ifI have to buy a second figure to get him.
