If you're going to announce and let us order stuff for July 2022, you might as well let us order Blaster.

unless they don't think Blaster will be here by July 2022

 

Hopefully we will see Blaster at the next Toy Fair event whenever that is. Blaster is the #1 bot I want.

 

It’s possible he could be saved up for a potential fan first Friday, or in the worst case scenario becomes a shadow drop and announced via transformers Tuesday’s.

 

My guess is that Blaster is still kingdom wave 5 so it hasn’t been announced yet officially (like Pipes and Slammer). That means it’s technically a repack and they don’t want to show that at PulseCon (like Galvatron which I’m pretty sure is in a wave with Laser Prime). So the “secret figure” that’s with Bulkhead is Blaster. But yeah they should just show us.

 

They probably wanted some mineline stuff to sprinkle in during a transformers Tuesday or something.
They could show Blaster, the core class figures, and the SS stuff.

 

Of course they will.

 

Armada used g1 animation models (Dragstrip and Wheelie in particular) as generics in the cartoon so in my eyes the UT designs are already suitable for CHUG lol

Also, seeing how perfect Metroplex is based on the leak really gave me hope for Starscream, Blurr, and even Override

 

Blaster was apparently pulled forward for an extra Kingdom wave. So he's not technically Legacy.

 

Look at all his plastic:



Not only are they not getting rid of plastic with ML, they're putting out special Anniversary editions for an extra $8 or $9 with extra plastic packaging. Too bad none of the social media strumpets will ask Hasbro about the hypocrisy of their NFTs and other lines utilizing plastic packaging.

 

I actually have a theory about Legacee that I don't know if I shared here yet: she suffers from the same issue GUOP did. It's sort of like an uncanny valley thing where people can't look past what the figure is trying (and failing) to be and thus has this burning hatred of it. The interesting thing is that once you do something like change the color scheme and make the figure a different character, that uncanny effect disappears. For example, check out Grimlockimus's custom Nova Prime. Now check out this digibash and see if your reaction to it is different than it was to the arcee colored version

 

Yeah but that doesn't mean they can't announce it.

The more crap I can get out of the way earlier the better. It means I don't have to monitor emails and whatever else it takes to get this stuff for my son and other kids.

 

Does it count if I was pretty indifferent towards Legacy Arcee from the very beginning (but don't think it's a bad figure) and knew I'll be getting one of the repaints?

 

Ordered everything I wanted from the middle of a cornfield maze.

 

Oh yeah Armada can work with G1 (especially WFC's "updated" G1) perfectly fine with little to no issue.


Whether or not that's what Hasbro will do, only time will tell.

 

I have no attachment to this figure or Prime Arcee as a whole.
Leaves me indifferent because Prime isn't my thing. Actually I got a BH Arcee, Magnus both Ironhide deluxe and First edition. But those figures I got on clearance And as a fill up for that era. Not to collect a whole prime line.

 

It's just a branding thing. They're promoting Legacy, not "yesterday's news".

 

Any possibility that Galvatron may come back in stock in the future?

Edit: Wow, no one knows anything here at all, huh?

 

I hope the Bulkhead mold gets made into a G1 Cartoon Hauler.

 

Couldn't you just buy a 2nd Grapple for that?

 

They are not the same vehicle
