I guess there's nothing today.

 

Monkeybot sad.
Walletinator finally happy.

 

Welp, guess that's that. Buzzworthy 4-pack and Road Rage are already leaked and being reviewed, but no official announcement. Yet, every week there is at least 1 Marvel release (yes I know it's a bigger universe and fandom) or 1 Star Wars release (again, bigger universe and fandom). If there weren't product out there which hasn't had an official announcement or confirmation I'd be less salty than I am.

 

At this point for WFC there is the 4 pack, Road Rage, T-Wrecks, Origins Bumblebee, wave 4 of WFC plus Blaster, and the Amazon Golden Disk stuff. Then there is the probably new waves of the Walmart retro stuff and the limited amount of Studio Series stuff we have left. We are probably going to see the new Generations line at Pulsecon in September so i wouldn't doubt it wave 4 and Blaster end up on a FFF. The Target stuff is complicated by the reveal schedule for their Collector event - I really only expect a formal reveal/preorder for T-Wrecks at this point. Road Rage will be later in the year. the Buzzworthy stuff just doesn't get pre-orders for whatever reason. So Tuesdays may be limited for TFs.

 

You Right, You Right  .

 

T-Wrecks has already been revealed and put on sale, even if not directly by Hasbro

 

yeah wasn't clear there. Only talking about the Transformers Tuesdays so T-Wrecks on Pulse.

 

T-Wrecks is currently a Target Redcard exclusive. He's not going up on Pulse.

 

Earliest would be July 25th when he goes live for all users on Target's site. Assuming the July 25th date on his page is accurate.

 

Least not in the States until the 25th at the earliest. He's already on Pulse UK

 

There has been no confirmation that he won't show up on Pulse at the end of the Redcard exclusivity period. If he does its great. If not, then it only impacts people who don't have redcards. I have no interested in T-Wrecks and do not have Red Card. I do have an interest in Road Rage who is also Redcard exclusive. So i'm hoping that Pulse will get access to these Target Redcard. If not i will have to get a Redcard.

 

why do we care so much about stuff being officially revealed after it's leaked? it's not like hasbro's gonna look at the leaks and say "welp, throw all the fangry toys in the incinerator," the toys exist whether hasbro admits it now or closer to their actual release lol

 

Official reveals are usually pretty closely followed by open preorders

 

yeah, that makes sense. i'm also pretty vocal about "don't freak over preorders for something that will be sitting at your target for 3 months anyway (provided it's not an exclusive)" so i'm a little biased.

 

Fair, but considering how it went with some of the exclusives last year, some eagerness isn't entirely unwarranted

 

The other thing (at least with my local Targets in NJ - not really a Walmart shopper) is that its either feast or famine with Transformers and I can't depend on seeing most of what i want on physical shelves. So pre-orders for me take a lot of the work out of the hobby and allow me to get what i want. With work (slowly returning to my office while holding on to my work from home as hard as i can) and two kids i really don't have time to drive around hunting.

 

I have T-wrecks ordered weeks ago

 

As i stated in another post - literally only talking about Transformers Tuesdays on Hasbro Pulse in the US.

 

Fair enough.

This particular tf Tuesday was a bit of a bust though wasn't it.

 

T-Wrecks isn't likely to be a Transformers Tuesday drop though because he's already been officially revealed, it'll likely be one of those random Friday drops that has little to no announcement
