The Wave 4 Deluxes and Tigatron are basically it for Kingdom mainline releases.
The assorted leakers have made mention of stuff from Legacy getting bumped up, but I don't think that is happening by this stage. Considering how haphazard distribution and the global shipping situation remains....it was probably a good idea not to try and pad out Kingdom (less we see a repeat of the tail enders from Siege).
Well on pulse instantly but amazon will have more stock so it’ll take a bit longer
YES, confirmation of two pipes for Pipes.
Also, Slammer looks fantastic; the picture of him weaponized with Pipes is terrific

Slammer is great, the bits he breaks up into are all pretty nice and useful. (The arms which are pretty much arms a bit less so, and look a bit funny as skis for Pipes there, but they'll make for nice weapon-carrying extensions).
... Is that a Combiner Wars style peg on him?

...and still nothing on how he integrates with Metroplex. This is going to drive me bonkers!
Find whatever 5mm ports and pegs Metroplex has and just stick Slammer's pieces on there wherever you want.
"Premium Members Only" isn't exactly "up."
Doesnt seem like he went up officially at Amazon yet either. He was Unavailable immediately
So he obviously uses the same engineering as Airazor, and has the same legs from knees to ankles. I'm not seeing any other part reuse though.
I think the beast mode mostly works pretty well. They were never going to manage a beast mode as slim as the show model and still have a decent robot mode, so the bird chunkiness doesn't really bother me. I do wish they could have done something about his feet though. Gonna have to play around with Airazor a bit and see if there's a way to get the feet into a better position.
Edit: Realized I still have Skywarp sitting out in eagle mode. Seems like the best you can do is just pose the lower legs straight, fully folded against the thighs. Not great, and will make the beast mode read as even chunkier still, but decent enough I guess.

He certainly looks a lot better than I expected. Love that he's almost all original. Gun and head are superb.
Just got my Amazon preorder in.
The story sounds like it was the original timeline of events set before Kingdom, but then got erased so that the proper events of Kingdom could proceed. These events of preventing the quantum surge would explain why there are no Transmetals in Kingdom's version of the Beast Wars.
Though, Terrorsaur's fall into lava infusing him with lava powers that let him breath fire makes it sound an awful lot like he fell not into lava but into Angolmois Energy. Of course, going by the Japanese timeline, that stuff wasn't hidden on Earth until after the Beast Wars were over, but still.

Terrorsaur is now Rodan.
