Yup, that's why I typically go with Pulse. It goes slow, but it gets there. Amazon/Target getting them "first" is worthless if they cancel randomly.

 

So is there any chance they put up the one Seacon I'm missing? Or the white versions? I figured since they got in more of all the Seacons but one they'd get the final one back eventually too.

 

I'm skipping this round. As cool as they are (and I wish they were the movie designs all along), I'm not gonna grow my collection into another new subline.

I do wanna say though, I find it absolutely *hilarious* that 10 years ago when Don Figueroa debuted his "new style" in the IDW Transformers Ongoing that was a compromise between G1 and Bayverse, fans on this board rioted. And then, years later, when very similar designs showed up in Bumblebee and now in Action Figure forms, fans here go ga-ga over them. I guess that's what 5 Bayverse movies did.

 

Unless they are still in the container ship fiasco,I would say 99.9993 % chance of no more restock.

 

Everything else looks better by comparison.  

 

Or perhaps the difference is one of them is a produced toy.

And the truth is the designs aren't universally accepted by the fanbase and you're ignoring that just to "make a point."

 

Have your cards ready, looks like the ZAP MMPR Megazord is getting put up for preorder this Friday.

 

I would have to care about PR in order for that to happen. (Maybe I was too old when that show premiered but of all the nostalgia collectible toy lines, that is the one I just don’t get.)

Anyway, stalking this thread for Blaster which still hasn’t dropped. Ugh.

 

Nah. The point is that it's 10 years later, elements of fandom being massive jerks to a pioneering TF artist, who after a bit rightfully told us all to go fuck ourselves and quit the TF world that so defined him entirely, looks even worse in the rear view mirror. Really bang up work everyone did. I hope everyone enjoys their might-as-well-be-ripped-from-the-comics action figures.

 

HP sent an email that Ranger/Puffer will be processed on 12/16

 

Damn it.

 

No email about jackpot yet

 

I'm starting to think my Tigatron has been lost in the bowels of Fedex hell. Was supposed to be delivered last Friday. Friday night it changed to "pending", which is par for the course with Fedex. Today, it says my tracking number is invalid. Customer service was, as usual, completely useless and couldn't find anything. I hate Fedex,

 

Customer service Fedex or Pusle?

Because either way, contact the other as well. If only because sometimes if you get all sides rolling they can get their shit together and figure things out.

 

Sooo, in an attempt to return my Agent Ravage, they were going to make me pay return shipping, but I argued it, since the box isn't mint. So, did they offer to pay the return shipping? Nope. They refunded me in full and let me keep the item. Ok then.

 

Wow. That's what I should have done. I ordered an extra Ravage in error and they wanted me to pay return shipping. Instead, I sold it and split shipping with the buyer.

 

I'm still not sold on if I'll keep it, since I have the Transart version, but if I decide not to, I can always donate to Toys for Tots.

 

Total win right there my friend.  

 

I really have to chuckle every time I check the back in stock page on Pulse and when it first loads....it stutters for a bit and first populates with the "recently viewed" items that are normally at the bottom of the page before fully loading and showing what actually has been restocked.

Gets my hopes up every time.

 

Fedex customer service. They found it today. It got put on the wrong truck, and ended up in Sacramento, instead of Tracy. So, now it's has to ship back to Tracy, before getting on a truck to San Francisco.
