    Hopefully free club membership with purchase

    The Ark would ship free from Pulse regardless.

    Maybe. Usually the Commander Class releases before the titan (April vs August?). I think Rodimus is up first.

    Well... it's almost March.

    And damn this waiting.

    I want to see Rodimus. I want to see Galvatron. I want to see the Ark.

    It's insane there are no leaked images yet.

    Maybe the staying home thing is what caused the leaks to stop?

    The initial Kingdom leaks came during lockdown.

    Heck, the current situation likely would contribute to more leaks. Lots more emails flying around that could easily get loose.

    Well, Rodimus is probably a Q2 release. The Ark is probably a Q3 and Galvatron is probably Q4. Considering that Hasbro likes to put up pre-orders right when the reveal goes up, I think Rodimus is imminent while the other two will probably be revealed closer to April or May.

    Pretty sure Rodimus and Galvatron are both wave 3. Also, @Pixelmaster mentioned Galvatron was already up for sale on the black market and we could see leaks after the Chinese New Year holiday, which ends this week.

    Still hoping Hasbro beats the leakers to the punch with a reveal, but it'd basically have to be a Fan First Friday this week from the sound of it.

    The article that mentions the ark a page back says it's scheduled for Q1 release

    You seriously think it's coming out before the end of next month?

    I'm guessing the article is going by fiscal year, where Q1 is July-Sept, rather than retail/calendar year. There's 90% no way the Ark is being released by the end of March.

    It'll probably get revealed by the end of March, but yeah there's no way it'd go from "leak/rumor" to available that quickly.

    If that were the case almost certainly something would have "fallen off the truck" by now.

    We don't need leakers. Hasbro can do this too themselves. When they did the livestreams last year, they were pretty good and informative. Surely it would not cost them much to do those again.
    I'd prefer the news to come from official sources for once, at last.

    Because they got dunked hard and they gave up trying to tiptoe around the stuff, if I remember originally there was supposed to be an earlier event that would just show the deluxes and that was it. It was canned in favor of a big one after the leaks basically poured out to the internet.

    for real though it would be nice to get reveals first rather than factory pictures or some Korean product safety regulator

    Today would be a great day for a Fan First Friday reveal of the Ark. Any day now. But seriously... Today. Please.

    Sorry, but they usually reveal FFFs at least two days early.
