    Alright. I'm angry with Hasbro now.
    They sent me emails saying that this guy and BB Soundwave would be arriving and I'd be charged soon.

    What they didn't do it email me about Black Zarak arriving early as well.
    So now, they charged me for Black Zarak and Soundwave and I'm down to under $8.00.
    What bullshit is this?

    I've sent Hasbro cs a message about possibly cancelling it before it leaves the warehouse.

    This is why I don’t fuck with pre-orders anymore. I have Terrorsaur, and thats it. This exact thing happened to me too much.

    EDIT: And people always tell you. “Just budget better.” Like, if I’m not supposed to be charged for something for another two months, I don’t budget for it. Being randomly charged hundreds without notice is not okay, and it’s not defendable.

    We'll see what happens.
    Because right after Zarak, which left me with $41, they tried charging for Screamer.

    I need that $170 right now.

    Guess I'll pick this up once he hits deep clearance so I can get that throne for Megs to sit on.

    Wish the throne was sold seperately in different colors. Would make great seats for a 13 primes diorama set up.

    So I just got my coronation Starscream today from the mail, opened him up and transformed him into Jet mode, and a really weird thing popped up as very noticeable to me. Is his left tail fin supposed to be more yellowish than the other? Is this some kind of deco I wasn’t aware of with this mold, or is it some kind of known quality control issue I wasn’t aware of, that I’ve gotten?

    Alright, as long as I’m not going crazy. :oops: 

    Ah well, I can try Hasbro Customer service and see what I get as a response, I guess. It’s definitely very noticeable, especially from the bottom where the color turns browner. I can’t imagine how something like this happened, but if nothing else, at least I can just pretend it’s some fire/battle damage from an attack.
