That's the last item I got, and the only one I got help with. Or rather, my wife looked it up after I'd spent a while trying. I hadn't given up trying to figure it out yet, but I don't know if I would have ever gotten it without looking it up myself. What I was missing is that I didn't know you...

Until this conversation, I had completely forgotten that the Unicron stand only has one arm for a ship. I had it firmly in mind that it had an arm on either side. Had to go and look at the stand to confirm I was misremembering. In light of that, yeah, the absence of any additional arms is...

There's supposed to be an update on this during Pulse Con, during the Avalon Hill panel on Saturday at 12:10 EDT. What I'm hoping for: Confirmation that they're shipping this month, as previously indicated. They mention "look to the future of the game system." I'm guessing this means news...

It is called SSB Ultimate. I really think this was a one-time thing, and Nintendo has no intention of trying to top it. I expect there will be a lot of disappointment from any people who do expect something even bigger whenever the next game comes around. As to what that next game is, I really...

For everything other than the EMMIs, you press the counter button right after you see the flash. So it's all about recognizing the tells that a counterable attack is coming, then wait for the flash, and hit the button. The EMMIs are a whole 'nother story. There are two opportunities to counter...

Just beat the game last night. Finished at a little over 10 hours with a little under 70%. Was a fun ride, and especially letting my daughters experience at least some of it with me. Probably the most entertaining part of it was watching my 11-year-old start panicking whenever I approached an...

They said in one of the videos that the prototype didn't have it, but they were working on being able to rotate the sword blade 90 degrees for the final production design. That way, you can orient it to be either show-accurate or toy-accurate.

Under 50 now.

He's really picking up steam now. Added another ~400 backers since the dump earlier this afternoon. Pretty rapidly approaching 18,000. If this final surge continues to build in typical crowdfunding fashion, it's feasible he hits tier 3 before all the Sunday affiliate order dumps.

I got an order in with Target last night, a little bit after Best Buy apparently put the set up and ran out between refreshes. Hoping the order stays valid, but I have no faith with Target. As for the game, I'm hoping to get to play it some this weekend. Waiting for my kids to be home so they...

Blech. So on top of Amazon cancelling my Tigatron order, apparently Pulse listed him and sold out sometime while I was out helping with my wife's fender bender (no one hurt, no serious damage at least). I guess I'll be getting him whenever my next PoL is ready to ship. 😖

It's absolutely video game Tidal Wave that drives the Titan requests. In the show, they tended to overexaggerate his size in shots where he's at a distance, but he just wasn't that big whenever he actually interacted with anyone. Commander would absolutely be the way to go to homage either the...

So this is now available to order on Pulse. Where it's being called... Masterpiece Optimus Prime? o_O https://hasbropulse.com/products/transformers-takara-tomy-masterpiece-optimus-prime-and-tenseg-base The stands are also available individually in red or purple.

I have to admit, I would probably bite for MP Constructicons. I think they're the only combiner team that could hook me at that price, though.

Those would be the better Optimus and Rodimus I mentioned. :p I took that picture a couple years ago. I think right after either Dai Atlas or Star Convoy arrived, whichever was the more recent. Thousands of orders coming in at the very end of the funding period isn't a miracle. It's par for the...

I'm glad this is going to be rectified next year. Even have a better Optimus and Rodimus for the lineup too.

Just googling the e-mail address shows that this is the toy buyer for Family Dollar: https://www.linkedin.com/in/christopher-sutton-035b0b22 Cybertron Metroplex isn't anything I was ever going to get excited about, but I need to see much better pictures than this before I'd ever start making...

Wish I'd kept a copy, but I'd posted a picture on the forums a few years ago of a PotP Rodimus Prime I found at Meijer. Had the trailer/armor pieces in the box, but no Hot Rod. Not sure if it would reinforce the idea that open boxes will mean stuff getting stolen, or counter that the people who...

Yeah, I had already put in an order there. My PoL is empty though, and I've been trying to hold stuff there as long as possible to keep shipping costs down, so it's kinda become my last resort for TFs at least. I'd much rather go with Pulse or Amazon for the instant gratification of it. I've...

Speaking of Tigatron, I've had an order out for him on Amazon since he and several others were kinda listed back in April. I've gotten a few items from that order and still have a few more outstanding. Just got a notice this afternoon though that Tigatron has been cancelled. He'd been listed as...
