Good guess. Why do I care about G1? It holds no nostalgia for me. God knows...

Hoping I see Retrax in stores, I'd prefer to cancel my preorder, I've found the other 3 beasts I've gotten in stores easily too.

I am excited for him, he's one of those weird ones I just want to experience.

He's actually quite fun in hand.

I just wanted to talk about rock bubbles and I come back to, uh, whatever this turned into. Warnings have been handed out. Also, and this goes for all users, if someone makes a post that is inappropriate please report it rather than continuing off-topic conversation.

Only mildly painful in hand. Just wait for the first time that spring mechanism triggers, giving your hand a hug when you didn't mean for it to :lol:

I want retrax too! He's such a funny figure, from the lazy transformation, to the non- existing alt mode, and the roll up gimmick. He's also like a beast wars unicron!

I should have pre-ordered Maverick at Walmart.ca when its price was SWITCHED with Terrosaur. Now 5h8ngs are back to normal.

Yup.
It was 35$CAN while Terrosaur was 66$CAN.

Now the switcheroo is fixed. Might as well preorder Terrosaur now. :-?

EDIT: AAAAAAAAAAAAaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaannnnnnnnnnnnndddddddddddddddd Terrosaur is gone from the page.

Oh well, at least I was able to secure Cosmos.

Which ones are the "other three"? Tigatron, Scorponok and Cybershark? Have there been any sightings of Wolfang yet?

I got Primal, Scorponok, and cybershark. Primal sucks QC wise, the other 2 are a lot of fun.

I don't think we've had Wolfang sightings yet no

I got Wolfang months ago from an online retailer whose name I honestly can't remember.

Got Terrorsaur from Walmart.com Thursday and he's really nice. Colors are good, joints are stiff, really thought I was going to break the dino head transforming him the first time. Plastic does feel a little cheap, I need to compare him to Hydra since I don't have a vintage Terrorsaur to compare it to. But I just need him to look good on the shelf and he serves that purpose perfectly.

Mine did have the bubble completely fall off the card so that may be problematic for MOC collectors.

Was the bubble glued on well on yours?

I got two emails saying it was coming this week followed by one saying Aug 17.

So far so good, haven't opened it yet.

News Credits: 331 · by **chuckdawg1999** » Fri Aug 05, 2022 2:22 pm

Just opened it now and noticed the left front corner was crushed in and separated from the card.

Because the YouTubers, in so many words, "told me to" (see the end of the vid).

Surprisingly Retrax sold out at Walmart before I could order it, but I have it coming from Hasbro Pulse. I think toy arena has some early stock.

Yeah, I missed out but I'm sure I can find him in stores.

Spotted Terrorsaur at Walmart this morning. Would have taken a photo but they were stocking the aisle after the reset and I would have been in the way.

This isn't a sub Reddit. :-P

(And here I thought I was the only one here that followed Triple Jump, been watching them and the Cultaholics guys since their Whatculture days.)
