    That might be my issue then. Does that extend to bank credit cards specifically Chase bank?
    Still annoying esspeccially since at payment they literally show visa and MasterCard in that list.

    I have never had issue with my bank debit cards for pre-orders on Pulse. Two different banks. I think it comes down to the networking the bank is using. If the card has an MC or Visa logo on it I'm surprised it isn't working.

    If the card you have from your bank doesn't have the Visa or MV symbol that's probably why. Question; have you ever used this card anywhere besides an ATM to withdraw funds fron your bank account? Because there's a difference between an ATM card and a debit card. If it doesn't have the Visa or MC symbol does it have a different one?

    I'm not going to go on a huge discursion on what I think is or is not appropriate for either HasLab vs retail, but suffice it to say, I think in either case, the Mega Pretenders are the best bet for the flavor of Pretender that will be most faithfully recreated in the near future (and I think they'll need to be a pretty high budget price point to make that work). In part because of the design, in part because Thunderwing is awesome, and in part because two of the three molds have a JG1 retool option (which is now a huge positive in a post-Saber world) (plus, Vroom is named Vroom and that alone is cool).

    There's only two things I think the MP, which I love, has up over this one, the size is actually correct for gen imo and Saber gets a smaller sword.

    Same, although him going Final Fantasy on it with a sword as big as he is is a very funny mental image.

    Lmao one hand a sword as big as he is and the other the V-Lock Cannon which stands taller than him I believe is a hilarious mental image.

    It does make me wonder if/how western media is going to characterize Star Saber and Victory Leo since this is sort of the most important Gen toy of the next couple of years.

    Honestly maybe rip a page from the old comics and do a time travel story line? Have Star Saber be the Supreme Commander of the Autobots in the future, after the ages of primes. Idk but as long as their badass I’m cool.

    I mean, surely some hack of a writer won't turn him into a religious nutjob because they wrote meh stories of him being a bad guy as it was "clever" when they were younger and now had the ability to do that, right?

    I mean they have a ton of giant robot characters and mecha. They might not be impressed with Star Saber compared to the million of Gundams that get released.

    That's the thing, it doesn't seem ironic, it just seems like "I hate IDW Star Saber".
