I want KITT and Soundwave.

Batteries not included.
I ordered the batteries from Amazon so Kitt will be enjoyed tomorrow.

As for Soundwave, let's hope the yellowing problem have been fixed since the Netflix original. Also, notice that the artwork of Soundwave is from the CORE class version.

Weird that they did new art for everyone but the stylized box.

Got my Straxxus from Pulse already, that was really quick.

[triKlops]

Waiting on my Straxus, as we speak.
Hopefully tomorrow if not the weekend.

[Emerje]

Already got a shipping soon notice from Pulse for Xaaron and Flame!

Same here. They said the 24th!

[triKlops]

Got my Straxus, now waiting on that Xaaron and Flame email.

Was a nice surprise to go to Target and find some new.

Amazon delivered core Steeljaw yesterday. Not a bad little tape.

I already had the Afterlife Ectotron, but I skipped on the original at the time. But when I say the OG on sale at Amazon for 50$CAN (the full price of a voyager) I just had to get it.

I've yet to open it, but it is written "2024" in the X-over logo. Will this one be "cheaper" than the original, like they did for Maverick?

[Emerje]

Got my Straxus Monday!

Be extremely careful.
When transforming, the very first step is to fold out the connectors from under the feet. If you don't, you'll do like I did and break something.

Got my core Geocron from Pulse yesterday.

Haven't gotten anything in a while (aside from Straxus) and I was at Target in the collectibles section where I found the Funko Pop toy style Optimus Prime. I've got the giant one so why not? Also found that Super7 is doing Transformers ReAction blind boxes for $15. Pretty sure their just reboxed regular ReAction figure but $5 less. Bought one, got a Bumblebee, I guess that's my first ReAction figure.

I got this big silly thing at Marshall's for just 20$CAN plus taxes! Meaning around the price of a Core class.

Contrary to the recent Knight Rider X-Over Transformer, this one have its batteries included. Not too bad overall for what it is and the truck is a hefty chunk of madness.

I'm glad I'm not one of the poor souls that paid full price for it. Meaning around 80$can plus taxes.

I much prefer the "toy" colors on Blue Rumble from the Leader Soundwave set. So I just sold my SS one to my local geek store and I got 15$CAN in store credit, meaning over 75% of what I paid originally. Not too bad!

So, that paid for almost half the price of one of my "mini grail", BW TM Prowl. I never wanted to pay the eBay price so finding it for the price of a regular deluxe was pretty nice. Especially when the yellowing is at the minimum, and only the red of his side-panels has faded. The chrome paint is unflaked and pristine.

Overall, he's a neat guy.

Faded? You sure that's not the silver coat that's over it?



As for me, got Xaaron and Flame from Pulse today! It's been a fun line, I hope Hasbro brings it back next year.

Ah, so those sides are supposed to be red plastic painted silver? Looks like that paint is what's fading... or not?



Looks like that's intentional. So maybe appart some yellowing, my copy is perfect.

Wouldn't surprise me, it's thin enough that you can see the red through it.
