I agree
Id imagine it would be more work to remove the symbol than to leave it there so it shouldn't be an issue

Well, I was more thinking they might just leave it unpainted or glue the mechanism to make it not turn
His little back-of-the-box-bio calls him out as switching sides, so I would assume he still has it?Sentinel_Primal wrote:Razorbeast88 wrote:Sentinel_Primal wrote:I hope he has the Decepticon symbol still. I don't know if it was ever a thing in SG before, but I thibk it'd be neat if he still had it

this is a little too much of the Autobots to be interesting to me anymore.

This is the LAST one? Well, I suppose that they couldn't remake everyone in SG colors. But at least they could have added Soundwave (with Ravage and Lazerbeak) and Shockwave at the very least to even things out.

They probably don't wanna jump the gun on such a gamble. Selling five figures on Hasbro Pulse is most likely testing the waters to see if they might be able to expand the line with more figures sold at more venues later. After all, this is a line that goes against the very heart of the Transformers series, consisting entirely of Evil Autobots and Heroic Decepticons. That's a risky move from a marketing perspective.-Kanrabat- wrote:Bounti76 wrote:At least in this line, I think. On Pulse, it says the SG collection will be five figures.

Maybe, just maybe, they could sell more if the SG line wasn't a DAMN PULSE EXCLUSIVE and instead the things were available worldwide even if only at online stores?
I dunno, just a hunch.

Maybe. But Canadians must pay 30$US of shipping for a single figure (plus taxes) and the rest of the world can't buy anything. That's a test with only the Americans in mind. That's way too small for a sample.
I don't call the line to be available at Walmart, Target, and Toys R Us. worldwide Independent online stores that specialise in nerdy collectors would be more than enough.

Given that this is available online at this Australian retailer, it might be available other places online in the future if it sells well enough.
