Those pics are in different lighting, and both versions have the same "painted chesticles", as you put it.

I dont know, it really looks like the Clash version has painted pecs while the other doesnt (and instead just has molded details).

He does, I own him, his abs are black not purple (like the retail release) and the pecs are painted; nice details befitting of a retail exclusive :-D

We had some of the latest Legends wave up on Hasbro Toy Shop, but despite initial reports, two figures were missing from the roster. And now they're up too! Check out below the listings for Autobot Pipes (based on the Legends Optimus Prime mold) and Megatronus, sneaking in from Robots in Disguise. In addition, you might still be able to use code HOLIDAYFF for a 25% discount plus free shipping until the 24th, or CYBER for 20% off and free shipping.

This super-smart Autobot Pipes figure picks up junk gadgets like they were treasures! He’s a super robot fighter and he’ll be a match for any Decepticon who tries to take him on. When he’s in robot mode, he’ll fend off Decepticons with his powerful blaster – and he’ll run them over when he’s in semi truck mode! Keep converting him back and forth so he can handle whatever his foes dish out!

•Includes figure, accessory, collector card and instructions.

•2-in-1 Autobot Pipes figure
•Figure converts from robot mode to semi truck mode
•Includes blaster
•Changes in 8 steps
•Includes collector card

Autobots beware, because this Warrior Class Decepticon Megatronus figure converts in a heartbeat from robot mode to tank mode, and he’s got a mighty blade that will make his foes think twice about taking him on! He converts in 7 steps to either mode, and kids can keep converting him back and forth to keep the adventure going. When the battle is over for the day, scan the figure’s badge into the Transformers Robots in Disguise app (device not included) to unlock the characters for awesome virtual combat. Transformers adventures will be off the hook with this Megatronus figure!

•Includes figure and accessory.

•2-in-1 Warrior Class Megatronus figure
•Figure converts from robot mode to tank mode and back

Alas, I will pass on this Megatronus and continue my seemingly futile pursuit for his vastly superior TRU Clash of the Transformers retool.

[Pipes is] a super robot fighter and he’ll be a match for any Decepticon who tries to take him on.

From this point I kept expecting foot puns.

What makes it vastly superior?

I picked up Pipes, just because he was part of the wave, but I do wish there was a little more remolding. I keep seeing Micromaster Overload.

But his arms arent as painted and the other one has a face sculpted instead of a mask. They are different but I wouldnt call one superior.

You don't have to sell me, I'm after the non visor non pasties version.

I would say they are the same but different really. The TRU where I'm at this week has a bunch of them and it took a lot of will power to not give in to impulse.

I think if you into RID you can't go wrong with either version.

I love online retail. Newest waves of product haven't even hit stores and there's very little I still need. Poor old brick and mortar, looks like I won't be helping clear out stock in my local area much in the next few months.

I feel ya. I have made 2 orders: one with Shockwave and Underbite, and then later made the order with Megatronus. There are a few others that I'm looking for and wont hesitate to buy if they come in too. 25% coupon is nice

The head sculpt, at least in my opinion. The lack of paint apps don't bother me so much as the standard version's head design.

The visored one is obviously superior for not having his stupid looking mug [-(

Grand galvatron at BBTS for 159.99$

News Credits: 1641 · by **D-Maximal_Primal** » Tue Dec 08, 2015 9:49 am

I'm getting very frustrated here. I live only 2 and a half hours from the HTS store where my stuff is supposed to ship and it hasn't shipped yet. It's been 5 days and it will not ship. The label was created, but no confirmed shipping yet. Anyone else having this problem?

News Credits: 41 · by **Cobotron** » Tue Dec 08, 2015 10:08 am

My order shipped last Thursday, but tracking hasn't updated since. Might be FedEx's problem though. Not HTS. This whole process has been strange. It's the first order I've made with them since the site update. they also couldn't confirm my original account so I had to order as a "guest".

try searching the tracking number through Fed Ex first.
They are doing the shipping through them, then FedEx hands off to the Post Office.
Good luck.

This will be a little jerky, but fed ex has updated my shipping to be delivered today. If it makes anyone feel any better I won't have my hands on it until Friday evening though.

I'm hoping so. It's just so strange that the shipping hasn't been updated since Thursday. Hopefully this is the case.

And Cary, That doesn't make me feel better. I just feel pity on you that you can't get it until Friday if it comes today

Don't worry bout me, I'm a big boy. I was just wanted to share info on the craziness that is shipping.

I also got a lil sumpton sumpton from Japan waiting at the house too

If it's sent via Smartpost, I've noticed it doesn't always (or sometimes ever) update on the Fedex site until they hand it off to USPS. Had tracked things go from "nothing here lol" to "it's coming tomorrow" within hours.

Shipping is fickle. I once ordered Arcee and Chromia from BBTS, got the slowest, cheapest shipping: it came 36 hours after I ordered. I'm hoping this is a case of my TAV 29 Bee: shipping notification just wasn't sent and it will come soon
