I’ll believe it when I see Trump in handcuffs

So….you know that weird thing Hasbro’s doing with Kingdom Blaster being “direct to in stock” and not offering advanced preorders? Seems like the same thing is happening with the BAT and Alley Viper assortment. Heck, this dude was even able to order several BATs from Walmart! “Satellite“ and...

I've come across a SINGLE retailer listing for a Earthrise Starscream repack as K36. Which lines up with earlier reports. For one reason or another, it seems like this repack never ended up being released (maybe because of the Studio Series release?). Unless that's Blaster's casemate. Which...

MX-01 Archon, :

Oh hey, Emily from Hasbro GI Joe Marketing Team made an account at Hisstank! I don’t see this going well. Plus side is that they FINALLY revealed the dang Alley Viper! He’s been like an albatross around the line’s neck after appearing in the first images of Classified. And with some...

People keep saying that…but I’m seeing precious little evidence of it. Hell, I’ve only seen a single dubious retailer listing for K-35 (supposedly the Earthrise Starscream repack). If just seems unlikely that Hasbro is going to bother with another Voyager release when there’s who knows how...

Pulsecon Ravage arrived and I guess I jinxed myself because I finally paid full price for a Leader figure: Studio Series Slag during the big Pulse restock

The 2011 reboot was better than it had any right to be. Silverhawks wave 2 are posted. I just got Steelwill and Bluegrass. I already got the transformed MonStar and am more interested in completing the main 5 than the henchmen.

The PULSE premium "secret" Livestream is going. If nothing else, it's novel to really see the interior of Hasbro's HQ. They just reveal Lift-Ticket, a mix of Hoist and Trailbreaker.

Thanks to some Best Buy Gift Cards from my Credit Card Rewards and a 30% off coupon, I paid $6.50 out of pocket for Kingdom Ultra Magnus and Cyclonus (Hell, with the exceptions of the Netflix spoiler sets and Selects Galvatron, I’ve yet to pay full price for a mass retail leader for the last 10...

Torca as leader, befitting his animal components Transmetal Megatron- Original toy was great, but hardly the stature for his character. I’d argue both him and Optimus are both ripe for some expansion on gimmicks with the modern Voyager budget. Razorbeast- Guy got a starring role in a Furman...

Or better yet: Why wasn't Legacy wave 1 Core shown to begin with?

FYI, Amazon has an Epic Daily Deal today. Significant markdowns on brand new Cyberverse items like the combiners as well as assorted ultimate figures. A particular note is the new Ultra Ramjet being available for $15

FYI Amazon is running an Epic Daily Deal (10/25/21) on the new Hasbro Ghostbusters toys: Ecto 1 is marked down to $18.49, while the first wave of figures are marked down to $6.49. Though, if you’re lucky, the Venkman and Winston figures might be the wave 2 variations that include better ghost...

Except 10 years ago you could have gotten a retooled one with ME compatibility and a new Ace for $30 :p I mean, I see the plus and negatives on the Skystriker. Yes, it has been seen fairly recently for ME…but that’s not the market Hasbro seems to be targeting here. I think a really nice...

I got my order for the Python Viper in through Pulse. I have VASTLY more confidence I’ll get it from them, even if I have to wait. You never know what kind of shenanigans Target might do with preorders these days. I’m in a weird spot right now. There isn’t a lot calling to me. With the...

PR in these listings mean “Package Refresh”. It seems like Hasbro hadn’t decided (when this information was released) if Soundwave would be a new Prime iteration or Package Refresh from Siege (!). Galvatron Prime…I’m not sure. Maybe the “up-armored” Unicron Megatron from the end of the...

Yeah, we’ve seen Ravage for months. More than likely Ravage and Zartan were SDCC plans that got scuttled so Hasbro just held inventory for Pulsecon. That said, the mess at the west coast ports seems to finally be catching up to us, thus, Galvatron is probably sitting in a container in China...

The entire o-ring run that is being introduced is new. All new tools all around, likely due to the move to Vietnam for manufacturing. Even the Snake Eyes and Storm Shadow are new tools based on the originals. And as Zac said, it’s not fair comparison to prior releases once you factor in things...

This “poster image” that will adorn the opposite side of the packaging. https://news.tfw2005.com/2021/10/22/hasbro-pulsecon-2021-transformers-panel-recap-443361#images TFW used it as their main image.
