One of the credible leakers (the one that first leaked the line this thread is about, actually) said there's a rumored 4 pack for next year of Goldbug, Ransack (which Ransack was unspecified, people are assuming G1 Ransack from Kickback's mold), Toy Colors Scorponok, and a white Waspinator repaint (presumably the Botcon Waruder repaint), but it doesn't have a listing that's been found yet and they have no idea how/where it's releasing. I posted about it on the Legacy thread on the 25th, as I'm assuming it'd be a Legacy release unless the Buzzworthy line keeps going or something.
Anything on whether Goldbug would use the VW beetle mould or the SG/ER Cliffjumper? It feels like it wouldnt be VW one being in a multi-pack, but I dont know.

I can only hope that if this is true it means the more obvious repaint, Buzzsaw, will get a Selects or Amazon release with his correct "bot" head.
Megatron arrived last week, and I like him a lot. The extra parts they've added really build upon the mould in a good way, and while his aircraft mode does look a bit doofy, it's good that he's unofficially a Triple-Changer and you can still convert him into the original version's tank mode. I have him next to some Studio Series Autobots at the moment, the beginnings of a "Multiverse" shelf for characters outside of the Generation 1 continuity, which will of course be fleshed out more once my other Shattered Glass toys come through and Legacy starts.

Pretty sure it was said that Buzzsaw was coming in Selects

Not in the order forms yet. So far, 2022 is all G1/diaclone stuff
If you have any news, rumours, or hot new sightings to report which you feel should be front paged, please contact us using this form.
So with Goldbug getting released out of order, that made me realize that issues 3 and 4 (and possibly 5 too) of the Shattered Glass comic have to also be produced and ready to go since Goldbug will be coming with issue 4.
If Goldbug ships this weekend, then fans will have issue 4 in hand before issue 3 is released in 2 weeks.

Maybe not in the order forms, but JTPrime confirmed BW Buzzsaw and Sandstorm in our Selects thread shortly after the order form listings leaked, and another leaker agreed on a different site when this whole 4-pack situation was brought up.

Wait, where'd you order Megatron from? I though Pulse pushed him back to November?
Nemesis Primal wrote: Wait, where'd you order Megatron from? I though Pulse pushed him back to November?
I got him from Pulse UK. They must have been doing OK for Megatron stock because they sent mine out with no issues, but Starscream has been pushed back to December.

Interesting that the different branches of Pulse are having different dates for these. Out of curiosity, when was your Starscream supposed to release? Pulse US always said December.

No molds have been specified, no.
At this rate, it's 50/50, depending on the status of VW's license.
The resident Rewind... well, half of one
- Jelze Bunnycat =:3
Looking for: - TR Furos (Hardhead's head) and Crashbash (lost him ) - PotP Punch head - TR Galvatron right arm (the gun one) - CW Brake-Neck/UW Wildrider, CW Offroad - TR Twinferno & Grotusque - Greenlight, Lancer and PotP Elita-1 (plus repro Victorion hands and feet?)

I'm gonna say 0% since that one Bumblebee in the Buzzworthy pack ended up being Cliffjumper

It was originally November for both Megatron and Starscream. While Starscream was pushed back, they must've got Megatron in earlier than planned. I've been getting a few e-mails from Pulse saying my pre-orders are shipping out earlier because they've managed to get the stock ahead of the original date, this is the case for the Kingdom Waspinator and Studio Series Jolt I have on pre-order too, they're supposedly coming as early as next week.
Okay, so this is weird. Has Pulse used UPS for anyone before?
I got a shipping notice from Pulse on Goldbug. Pulse has always used Fedex in the past for anything I've ordered, and my order says they shipped it Fedex, but the tracking number is clearly a UPS number (with a Z for the second digit). The link for the tracking number leads to Fedex's site and comes up as invalid.
I went to UPS's site and the tracking number works, it should be here Sunday, with label created as the current status.
Greetings Seibertronians! Did you catch all the reveals from Pulsecon? Annoyed/upset that those figures won't be in your hands till sometime next year? Well let's focus on a toy that some of you are receiving right now! That being Shattered Glass Deluxe Class Goldbug!
Fellow Seibertron users, Chuckdawg1999, and Thundertron have done video reviews for this figure, and fellow Seibertron user, D-Maximal_Primal, has furnished us with pictures of this evil Autobot!
This is what Chuckdawg1999 had to say about this figure:
chuckdawg1999 wrote:For the sixth use of the mold, Goldbug feels like a first or second release. Other than that how desirable the figure is to you depends on how you feel about the Shattered Glass concept and if you like how the figure looks. Transformation is the same, articulation is the same, the accessories are the same, everything is the same as we saw before. By this point, everything just feels flat, but your experience might be different.
Courtesy of D-Maximal_Primal, we have these fantastic images of the figure! These pictures were shared on D-Maximal_Primal's twitter account and feature the Target Exclusive Origins Bumblebee and the World's Collide Bumblebee.
Do you have this figure? Do you plan on getting him?
Shout out in the Energon Pub and stay tuned to Seibertron for all the latest news and reviews!
We were supposed to get Megatron first, so the comics are out of order (Megs has issue 3, Goldbug issue 4).
Looking at my recent orders, it appears that the release date of Artfire is being changed to--it was November, but now says January.
Hurray for shipping delays... ugh.
Visit http://www.youtube.com/user/Pepsimus to see the latest episodes of The War Within animated, adapted from the comic of the same name. Episodes 1 & 2 complete!
Wouldn't it be nice if we got an actual Goldbug out of the Netflix Bumblebee mold with that head? I'm sure in a couple of years someone will think of it.

I'm sure it has already been thought of multiple times. VW and licensing is the problem with that mold apparently. I'm not sure we'll see it again unless something changes on VW's end.

This ^, a VW Beetle Bee is not something that we're likely to get often and may also be a one and done deal.
Okay so this is weird, someone on this site posted a sighting at Target for SG Blurr, at 2 different stores yesterday. I had no idea Target was going to carry them and this definitely has me intrigued. If they will end up carrying the SG line, I would love to be able to find SG Jetfire at Target during one of their sales.

My Ravage is shipping UPS too. Might have something to do with all the shipping issues.
