Definitely this. I wish I'd pulled the trigger on the Nonnef Earthrise Optimus kit when it was available, but I held off thinking I was going to get the Centurion from Luna Park which never happened. Prime really needs a Roller in his life.

 

WTF??? JACKPOT

Transformers Generations War for Cybertron Golden Disk Collection Chap – Hasbro Pulse - UK

Look at all that clear plastic, guess I'm going to need a spare like with Jazz.

 

Huh, Jackpot already. That was fast. Other two tomorrow and Thursday then?

Transformers Generations War for Cybertron Golden Disk Collection Chap – Hasbro Pulse - UK

 

The Golden Disk Collection - for when you not only insist on exclusives but clearly can't handle releasing them.

 

Congrats @w00dimusPr1me and @MyTea Boc! Diamond geezers you are!

Eesh, I can tell already I'm going to miss most of this. Presumably it'll mostly be stock from the last couple of years, and... I don't think I missed anything major? Probably?

Oh, and I preordered Jackpot. If I'm getting a Star Saber then I won't let the side down by not getting a Jackpot. I have standards to uphold!

 

Jackpot looks interesting and included Sights battlemaster is a sweet bonus.
As I don’t own the SS86 Jazz are there any QC issues with him?

 

Aha, good to see that BS Republic Commando figure on Pulse, of course ill grab it from a UK independant if i see it but at least i know i can get it somewhere

 

IIRC, the car roof is painted colourless plastic, so the usual issues with that. I skipped Jazz (stil have the RtS version) but Jackpot looks tempting.

 

Good LORD! Orderable Terrosaur potentially within the week?!
COME ON!!!

Jackpot by name Jackpot by nature, unless that trans orange plastic has an entirely different material quality than the clear blue parts of SS'86 Jazz, or they've tweaked the clearance of the bonnet-to-windshield section, then the odds are high one could get a copy that "transforms" itself into an actual Action Master after minimal transformations, as minimal tolerance shifts (and/or minor pin misfires at construction) can lead to stress snapping at the main hinge, IIRC @ambitron in particular had a right 'mare getting a none self-destructing one!

 

Jackpot: Yeah that doesn't look that great.......I'll think about that one.

 

So jackpot is a non transforming action master figure that just so happens to use SS86 Jazz mould and can actually transform into a sports car. So that now makes him an action master elite? (For those of us sketchy on this part of TFs)

 

Jackpot looks like interesting repaint fodder, not sure he’s £30 interesting repaint fodder but I think with all the black he would make a decent Decepticon

 

Hmmmm this is definitely a possibility for Jackpot…. just needs a new head

 

I bunged in a pre-order for Jackpot with Pulse. I'm unsure on it but might be nice for the MTMTE/Lost Light shelf.

 

Just need updates to the rest of the gang…..



Congrats @MyTea Boc and @w00dimusPr1me, nice to have some happy news for the thread.

 

That's the fourth Jackpot they've released and the third time he's been an exclusive. The 1990 Action Master is still the easiest one to get hold of. Probably cheaper too.

 

The bonnet and canopy are pretty damn fiddly considering how you're holding a lot of clear plastic to transform it. Some of the hinges might even be clear.

He reminded me of a toy I had as a kid, it was killing me trying to recall it!

 

@Apollux is a good guy - Official, and everyone should be lucky enough to buy from/with him.



So Nemesis Prime. That one Netflix pack that Smyth's didn't overorder, and disappeared like Snakeyes on a mission for yet another blink-and-miss urban-legend to add to the "did it even exist?" File.

And now seven odd months later Smyth's, who had "out of stock, not expected to restock" on the Website all that time suddenly have them and for home-delivery no less.

I was half expecting this to be a misslisting and end up with one of those Magnus packs that must have a warehouse all to themselves at this point.

But he's here in all his noticeable cheaper glory than the TT version.

Toy distribution should form part of a syllabus for advance study of Quantum Physics/Chaos theory.

Revelations Skeletor:
He's something. So much right, so close to being what I want, and then baffling WTF features that can only make sense if I believed somebody was actively trying to fuck this Line up. Glued lower elbow joints? Why?!!! That stupid, designed to break hip joint T-Bar......why?!!!! The floating Cape front that forms half the breast plate, and so will never stay aligned with the lower details.......Why the Fuck would you do that?!!!!!!

And eyeballs?!

That's the bridge too far.

 

Take a hairdryer to the elbows, had to do that with He-Man. The chest piece is the dumbest idea.

 

Do the Golden Discs cover intersectional realities? I'm thinking Slicer if the image isn't just a placeholder. I mean he's had a few decos I believe? Like they did with Deepcover recently for instance.
