    Me: "Eh, I don't need to order anything right away, I'll see how I feel about them tomorrow. Skids is still pretty 'meh' to me, and I already have Kickback, Dragstrip, and..."

    Also me: *immediately orders ALL the things!!!*

    Except Galvatron. I don't need another Galvatron... Really. No sir.

    Anyone else find that you can use Paypal for Ravage but you can't use Paypal for Galvatron on Pulse? Is it to do with pre-order status?

    In my case it saved on delivery with IDT for something else, plus the delayed payment will really help with my POs!

    Possibly? I know that for belated payment via Paypal HLJ, due to their allowing out of stock/due restock item orders - working on a kinda "pile of loot" pattern, set up a sorta specific link that allows direct billing for my orders on my account.

    I had no idea there was any other Strongarm besides the perfection of the Energon version and the police car from Cybertron… But I’ve just seen the Wiki page for another one

    Ravage and Galvatron banked. I'm probably gonna let go of the Galvatron accessories but will give the Unicron ballers the heads up closer to release.

    That said, I've just placed on order on Pulse for him ^^
    I'm gonna hold on to my IDT pre-order for now though. Maybe I can help out a threadizen who missed out or something?

    Fair enough. One of the reasons I'd love a CHUG version of Strongarm is she deserves a better toy than the RiD version we have, but more importantly she has a very atypical bodytype for Hasbro fembots so it'd be great to have her :)

    Selects/Toy version is the most expensive Galvatron!

    Pulse not taking any of my payment methods at the moment. Is this just me tonight as I know its been temperamental for others before?

    Tried for both galvatron and ravage but no joy.

    And even more ironically, the sensible thing will be to wait and buy the ToyHax stickers rather than use the cheap crap Hasbro will provide...

    So more expense!

    Come to think of it do you reckon the shoulders will be assembled correctly on the Selects and Unicron Companion version?

    Having now seen the figure, it’s a cool design and yeah would be nice to have more variety. I took a fairly long break around TF Prime so I missed a few things out, was genuinely unaware :)

    It isn't even the best looking. But that's only cos the Behold, Galvatron! deco has stealthed its way in like an absolute Yaujta. I'm fairly certain I'm going to love both repaints far more than I do the standard release.
