    Please, no more store exclusives or having to rebuy figures to complete teams

    That second point made me bow out of the line. Psychos was one of 3-4 teams I had real interest in completing and the 5 pack just really soured me on the whole line.

    Does anyone know if you sign up for the Premium membership if your existing preorders will automatically be shipped for free?

    It certainly annoys me, but I also heard that this might have been the only way to get the whole team out. I just hope Galaxy Red can be released by itself.

    It should be the next wave or so if the pattern is anything to go by!

    That's what I'm hoping for. Plus, hoping that it's Zack.

    Plus, I don't know why they announce next week's and not this week already.

    Haha, yeah it wasn't easy getting four. One came from up north (had a friend pick it up and ship it), two I managed to find at an out of way Target (thank you popfindr), and the last one I did order pick up and had someone who lived there pick it up (which is why it's technically four since I never had the fourth one in hand, haha). I'm pretty sure they'll re-release the X-Men. I mean, they got the retro packaging, it would just make sense.

    Oh and thanks for reminding me about the Sentinel. I was going to remind my friend to get his before the campaign ends.

    Think Hasbro will do a solid and extend the Pulse Premium membership for another six months? (those that we got for free by making one purchase in Feb 2019).

    Believe it's set to expire end of this month.

    I completely forgot about Premium. I'd send them a message about it but they haven't responded to my request for return I sent last week so... guess I'll keep the extra set of Joes. They must be short staffed or something.

    If that’s the case then red shouldn’t have been in a 2 pack and blue shouldn’t have been an exclusive OR they could have done a 3 pack of black, yellow and pink. It’s dirty tactics and basically ensures that they aren’t obligated to complete any teams outside of 5 packs. What if Mmpr black only gets released in a team pack (granted I had the version I wanted)? That’s the kind of shenanigans I can’t get behind really

    Naw, if they are short-staffed and the premium thing is (possibly) managed manually on their end, I won't ask them about it, as it may remind them they need to cancel it. :p

    They did Trini and Jason so I'm sure they'd complete the OG team.

    Maybe there isn't one this week? *shrug*

    I don't disagree, and would have preferred a 3-pack myself. But it's still the first time they've done this (in terms of completing a team I mean), and there's stuff about exclusives that we'll probably never know about too.

    Besides wave 6, I don't see them revealing anything else.

    True, like I said it just soured me on the line because I had already spent $60 to get red and blue. I don't usually mind exclusives (and I mean, this 5 pack is the first exclusive from any line I've ever collected that just soured me), they're a necessity, but they could have handled the psychos better. It made me lose faith that they would complete teams without exclusives or without making fans rebuy figures. It's great for those that weren't early adopters, but absolutely dirty for those that were

    I mean, it happens; I can't really remember in recent memory, but I'm more than sure it's happened to me too.

    Oh yea, I know I'm not the only one that has gotten burned by things like that. Fortunately my 6" focus has shifted to the new Joe line, which while it has exclusives, there is less of a need to complete teams, so if I miss an exclusive or one comes with a figure I already bought, then it's easier to skip :p

    This is a broad hasbro pulse thread, not specifically restricted to transformers, least that’s how it’s normally used
