    Yeah, I'm in no particular rush to get these, but I just hope my order isn't canceled.

    I've only been to Walmart like 6 times in my life and hated it everytime.....

    I just keep checking Pulse and hoping Hot Rod is available again. Basically done that every day since I heard about this hoping some folks would cancel or something.

    Even if he is, you will probably have your order canceled by Pulse.

    I never realized the Music Label version has a different head (or I'd forgotten). While that's undeniably a better head, in isolation, it definitely looks "off" as part of the G1 Prime mold.

    I remember when this release came out, there was a statement (by Hasbro I believe) that said the head was funded by that release and couldn't be used elsewhere.
