The Energon Pub

Hey, he actually looks pretty good! And tall for a modern deluxe, at least in comparison to the other Kingdom beasts, which was my biggest gripe with him. Still looks a little short compared to the show, but at least they made an effort. Glad I pre-ordered.

The Kingdom news is non stop today. We had sightings of Pipes and Slammer, a review of Terrorsaur and now a review of Blaster. He was found in the US last week, meaning that the only Kingdom toy left to be found is core class Hot Rod. Fellow Seibertronian O.Supreme gave us wind of this review which you can see below. While you could look for it on shelves, it is much easier to simply pre order him online where he is plenty available. Let us know if you will be getting this.

I threw out the card board insert and failed to notice any disk in it.

Hope I didn't actually throw out the disk.

Nope, only Terrorsaur comes with one. You're safe! Unless you forgot to check for Puffer's guns and Road Ranger's gun and shield

Thanks. Those I have. Both guns from puffer ands the gun/sider panel and shield for Road Ranger. whew!

For me, it is confirmed-- Blaster is an incredibly good figure.
Even though I couldn't care less about Eject, I can't wait to have Blaster.

And imo, that shows that Soundwave's proportions are off, and he should have longer legs.
Not a new observation. But his torso and shoulders look too wide because of this.

Anyway, both of Blaster's modes look fantastic.

Catching up here.

I got a notice from Pulse that Puffer/Road Ranger are shipping out next week. So that set was moved up and ready.

I hope to see Slammer and Pipes in stores, last 2 deluxes I need.

I actually kinda like Core Hot Rod. I think I will get him and pair him with I-ark-onus for a Cyberverse-ish reference.

Have some pictures of shadow panther

Dang, that Blaster transformation- I mean, conversion looks pretty neato. Does fold up pretty well and hides up the robot bits a lot better than I was expecting. Glad we avoided some unnecessary gaps while still having a very nice boombox mode and robot mode.

Are there any links to more legit YouTubers yet, considering it's already "officially" out?

Also, btw, my Japanese chum just got the two "Huffer/Pipes" redecoes (sic) from Amazon US. Apparently, there's been some (Covid 19- related) Kremzeeks in the supply chain, causing some toys to be released earlier than intended?

PvP's legitimacy I seem to recall is not a question appropriate for these forums. However...Yes if you go on to Youtube and search "Kingdom Blaster Review" you will find others, let us know which ones you like.

The item has been found in stores, so there is no need for the quotes above. Hasbro has revealed Blaster, its been found and purchased. Not sure where the confusion is.

Some here, i bought Huffer nearly 6 weeks ago when his wave came and he didn't have a disk card. Ironically my Ultra Magnus had a G1 Megatron card inside and the fate inside was showing Megatron fighting inside the pit.

It's ironic since in the 1987 Movie Megatron becomes Galvatron and killed Ultra Magnus (technically UK comics Galvatron defeating him too) but he got better in the film.

In the SIEGE cartoon trilogy Megatron killed Magnus without becoming Galvatron.

Is this the first time since the G1 mold that Blaster and Soundwave weren't just slight remolds/repaints of each other?

Can't wait to get him!

If memory serves, yes. First time Blaster is his own at last.

Nope! Device Label Blaster was a brand new mold separate from that of Music Label Soundwave.

I asked if there were any legitimate YouTubers that had made a review and didn't dwell on the well-known illegitimacy of PVP. You either could have answered it with a link or not bothered.

Thus, I'll ask again, has anyone found a video review by any legitimate YouTubers? I've searched but come up with zilch so far.

Sorry, that just comes from being a father and trying to teach someone to be self sufficient. No offense but you seem like the kind of person that wants everything handed to you with little effort.
How much effort did you really put forth in searching?
Here ya go

Thank you. I'm perfectly self-sufficient. I'm happy help others and also happy to ask for help. YouTube (and other services online) search results can vary, depending upon the app, hardware, geographical region, etc, so what is "easy" for you may not be so for others around the world.

That's true.
I'll add blocked videos, skewed search results (especially for anything political) and so on.

Ah yes, that too. Regardless, I appreciate the review that was linked to. It's nice to see more "raw/home-grown" reviews these days, IMO. Feels like a close connection to the community.

I can't find the proper thread but, I got the Unicron head pillow today and did a thing:

No, but seriously, where did you get that?

SDCC 2021. Unicron head pillow

What are the chances of Legacy Soundwave being a retool of this Blaster?

What Rodimus said, unfortunately it sold out. I thought there was a news article on this site, I could be wrong.

With them having a Soundwave mold already, I would say none.

Thanks, and it actually is still available from the maker. https://www.symbiotestudios.com/online- ... p407832801

Forgot to mention, I got an email from Pulse saying they will be shipping out Puffer/Road Ranger this coming week, which is pretty annoying that that set is coming out so early
