@Jtprime17 @HyperShauta Your social experiment was just as advertised: There was some truth underneath the entertainment!

 

YES! Bring on the Victory characters, the more the better!

 

Why is he drawn like Metroplex?

 

I like it, I’m in.

 

It's not often that Hasbro can get me to be this surprised....totally unexpected....I'm in!

Maybe a 3rd party will make an add on chest piece to replicate the shuttle cockpit / nosecone.

 

I also caught the Countdown base reference!

 

I think I’m adding that to my signature

 

do yall know if hasbro pulse always have stock of walmart exclusives and if they go up the same time?

 

Man, they are quite devoted to the theme here. I wonder if they might reach a point where they might homage Universe 2.0 Countdown.

 

they have limited stock, and I believe it usually goes up at the same time

 

No.... Overcharge

 

First Black Convoy and now Galaxy Shuttle? They're really gunning for the Japanese characters for these Walmart releases!

Beyond my excitement for actual Galaxy Shuttle representation, he's going to pair extremely well with the Botropolis Rescue set too. Love how they even made the extra cart bit homage Countdown's colors already!

 

Why arent all of his weapons the same color?

 

Wait, you might be on to something here. Where is Overcharge? Hold on, we referring to the blitzwing redeco or the taxi guy?

 

I wonder how Hasbro will implement Omega Sentinel in terms of deco. The G1 deco is a bit bland and muted. I'd prefer going full Countdown in terms of deco, but I could see that being a bit much (white arms/shuttle, blue tank/chest, lots of grey). Maybe split the difference and go Energon Omega Sentinel? Just red highlights, but more varied colors overall? Overall, my preference would be the choices of red, white and blue match Sky Lynx, Botropolis, and presumably Galaxy Shuttle

 

I would assume the black one acts as his original gun, with the fin. No clue why the others are bright safety cap orange though

 

Because Galaxy Shuttle is a nobody. In fact he is less than a nobody

 

One is to match the color of his original toy’s blaster, and I’m guessing the red ones plus the launch pad are to match the Galactic Odyssey Micromaster Rocket base.

He even has a helipad Paint app on the launch pad that kind of looks like the sticker that was on the G1 Rocket Base.

 

Hasbro, you are fucking crazy! Why is Victory Saber a HasLab Exclusive then?!

 

Because they were testing the waters on Japanese original characters. Granted i feel like they should have known they would sell. Testing aside it could also be because it isn't quite a commander or titan class either.
