So in other words, it's "sooner than soon".

Don't tease me like that, dude...

Yep... Ready to ship...

...on the 28th.

I equate the most recent e-mail to that annoying reminder you don't ask for but still get every 5 minutes because people have nothing better to do with their time.

The exact words of the email:

TRANSFORMERS VICTORY SABER BACKERS!

Get your shelf ready!

It's ALMOST time!! We are getting ready to start shipping the Transformers Victory Saber to all of you. First, we want to make sure we have the correct shipping address listed on your order and give you a chance to make any necessary changes before it heads your way.

You have until the end of the day on Monday, November 28, 2022 to update your shipping address through Hasbro Pulse. Please note, incorrect shipping information could impact the receipt of your item. Don't let it happen to you!

To update your information, login to your Hasbro Pulse account (or create one if you checked out as a guest using the email used to place the order!) to find your Transformers Victory Saber order and make sure your shipping address is correct. If you have any questions, please feel free to Contact Us.

Every 15 seconds: "You're call is very important to us. We will get to you as soon as a representative is available. Thanks for holding!"

I've literally received 3 shipments from them since they started sending out those email's, but, yeah, sure, I'll go double check that the addresses accurate :HEADHURTS:

I am extremely grateful to video reviewers for letting everyone see toys regardless of their availability. It's a big help to prospective buyers or, in this case, folk who may not get the chance to handle the figure. Speaking of which:

In case people didn't watched the video, it seems that an errant design choice is going to leave victory leo with paint chipping on his forehead due to transformation, so just watch out as it doesn't seem like there's any way around it other than to not transform it which would leave victory leo with an inoperable mouth and a double chin

It doesn't seem like it as it looked like it was a painted detent for the joint for the plate, but I hope I'm wrong. All I'll say is that I was just trying to help.

Of course. I'm not questioning that at all. However, as kanrabat said, there's a tell-tale sign that perhaps his copy isn't a final one.

We live in hope.

It may not matter depending on how you chose to display the set, mine would be in Victory Saber mode full-time if I was going to display it. My BIG issue is the hollowness in the guns and the lack of blade storage in Star Saber, that's a KEY feature to the character.

Are you looking for a specific location to store the sword? Cuz the hasbro pulse video showed off about 10 ways to store the sword on Wing Saber :???:

Nice to hear that Hasbro made this toy backwards compatible with an Energon/Cybertron toy from the 2000s.

I saw that but it's not THE way. Yes, I'm anal, it's Star Saber.

I did, thank you!

By the way, everyone, IF you have an account with FedEx you just might see labels being created for your Victory Saber.

News Credits: 6 · by **Roadbuster** » Thu Dec 01, 2022 7:35 pm

Can't see if any shipping labels have been made, but Pulse indicates the order status has changed to 'In Progress'.

MyFigureCollection.net collection · by **Emerje** » Fri Dec 02, 2022 3:24 am

Cool, I do indeed have two pending Hasbro Pulse shipments, nice! Interestingly the labels weren't made by Pulse in GA or PA, but by Hasbro Customer Service in IL. Shame, I usually get 2 to 3 day shipping from PA, IL sometimes takes a whole week...

I still haven't gotten a single email from pulse regarding my order and no updates on pulse. Hopefully mine still shows up!
