    Does anyone know if Hasbro has announced what day in September the SDCC 2020 exclusives will be going on sale? Need to mark the date so I can get the quintesson set.

    The only item I think Pulse has ever cancelled preorders was the G1 Cassette pack due to a lot of the stock being damaged or something along those lines

    September 4th someone has mentioned but no firm date I am aware of
    That and Spinster. I missed out using a voucher there but the savings would have been pennies so no great loss!

    They have pushed back dates on several occasions as well - just bringing it up because the current date ship date is only 2 weeks from Christmas if you are timing for a present.

    Nice. Guess this is where they'll be showing off Kingdom. I'm curious if this is when the Quintesson 5 pack will go up as well.

    That gives us the date for the Pit of Judgement set. Hopefully they’ll have enough stock to last both the 25th and 26th

    I hope they’ll showcase Wave 4 of Earthrise since we’ve yet to see any Wave 4 figures. They’ll probably showcase Kingdom around when NYTF was originally scheduled

    Was Wave 4 cancelled then? They released a teaser image of the full map a few months back that showed there would be 4 waves

    Nobody knows for sure, but that's the current guess since we have zero leaks for Wave 4, but we've already seen Kingdom figures, lol. The planned Wave 4 characters were probably moved to exclusives or into Kingdom.

    Early promo material that never got adjusted. Wave 4 wasn't canceled per se. Siege cannibalized a wave of Earthrise (Spinister, Apeface and Astrotrain at least). Many 4th/final waves are a single deluxe, so taking a single deluxe from Earthrise was enough to shift from 4 to 3 waves. All of this happened prior to Earthrise even coming out. The exclusives WERE NOT part of a 4th wave. I'm saying this based on information the reputable leakers have shared in addition to the fact that many of this years exclusives were leaked as far back as march.

    Everything we would have gotten for wave 4 is still being released (except maybe an earth mode sideswipe if recent leaks are true, a leaker said that one was planned but scrapped), it's just the wave structures was altered a bit.

    No wave 4 might be a hard pill to swallow...but lets be honest. Generations selects has basically given us a 5th wave of Siege and 4th wave of ER if not more.

    Not to mention Walmart Netflix. Elita, Soundwave and Bumblebee could have formed the core of a pretty decent wave 4.

    Whether we lost out of Wave 4 because of Covid or not (and I think we did) those figures just went elsewhere. We still are getting them. The main difference is for international collectors where that stuff can be a lot harder to get.

    Add to those...the Amazon exclusives (two voyager coneheads, four deluxes (so far))...and thats before you start counting exclusives from target or other stores.

    I think if Earth Mode Sideswipe was canceled, theyll try to fit it in elsewhere, because they've rehashed a decent number of siege stuff to have an earth mode, and it'd be weird having earth Sunstreaker and not an earth Sideswipe, imo.

    But can we just also give hasbro props for the sheer volume of choice we have recently? Like sure people can complain about places handling of exclusives, but we are getting so many characters and complete sets of smaller groups like ER not only having the whole seeker trio, but the coneheads, etc. Not "well we got THIS starscream repainted into Thundercracker, and I guess this Skywarp looks kinda like them, so we can have them together.... They are all part of the same line and thus, all go together very well. For gods sake, we are even getting Black Roritchi. Between the exclusives and Generations Selects, Siege/ER have been a HUGE line in terms of importance and they've been great. Hopefully Kingdom follows suit.


    Also, Pulse con HAS to be where we see ER Thrust, right??

    The Galactic Odyssey subline seems to have been a last minute thing, so it's possible he may end up there, especially if the tooling was actually finished. At the same time, if one does come out I would expect people to complain since it would likely not have a spoiler :lol
