I cancelled my order on Pulse and switched to BBTS to save on shipping (to get Hot House and Roritchi together). I have not received a delay notice as of yet, still shows December.

For whatever reason, screen accuracy is less important to me for the characters from 1986 on.

Same, I'm perfectly happy with the potp versions.

Except for the extra weapons, like the guns on Grimlock. This is where I fall from grace and go to 3P

Who knows, I didnt receive an official notice of the change per say, only noticed the difference when I compared the emails from Entertainment Earth in regards to all my order updates.

I ended up preordering mine from Entertainment Earth, and just saw the expected ship date change from December 2020, to March 2021. Things happen, I am not upset about it but just wondered if Hasbro Pulse or any other sites has shown a shift in a expected ship date.

No delay yet, but it would be welcome with how busy December is going to be right now.

No doubt, December is going to be crazy for any on line orders.

Not sure if this should be in this thread or not, but I just saw Walmart.com has Gigawatt on preorder for $29.99.
I'm passing but it seemed like a good number of people had interest in this figure.

Also just saw he's on preorder at Target.com.

Sorry if this is old news!

Crossovers such as Gigawatt fall under the Transformers: Collaborative line. Unfortunately, there's no thread dedicated to it, just individual ones for the figures.

Transformers X Back to the Future

Still good to hear tho

Just as expected. Brown cardboard box with a black slipcover. Just like the other Selects.

We were expecting anything else? I thought it was just a fact. Anyone expecting uw style boxes should have known it wasn't going to happen.

Finally Mastermind Creations has their version of Star Convoy up for pre-order on BBTS. I was a bit let down on the over all engineering involved on the Selects release so I hope MMC got things right. Way to go :HASBRO:

New size box means new hopes dashed. >:oP

Just how many sizes of Selects boxes do we have currently? We have Deluxe, Voyager, Leader and now "UW"... am I missing any?

Yes, you missed "skinny deluxe" for the Micromaster Spy Patrol 3.

Thank you. :-D

And 2-packs if we're going that way. 2 Deluxes and Deluxe + Voyager... :-?

But wait, there's more!!!
All the Seacon limbs use the Deluxe size box, but Trutler's box is a unique size. it is larger in length and width than Leader Shackwave, but smaller in thickness.

I'm not sure on Star Convoy, who I don't have. Turtlers box would be too skinny, so he either uses the leader size box or a unique size.

Initially I admit I was hoping for a UW styled box, but that was a while ago. I just basically wanted it confirmed to be one gift set, as opposed to selling these five together (but released in 5 individual boxes), which could have just as easily happened. At least now we have a template if someone wants to make a custom UW style packaging for this

Just got the notification about the Pit of Judgement shipment. This is the first time being notified in less than a day after charging. Nice. I wonder what is gonna happen with Bug Bite and Tigertrack as they should be dropping soon.

And then Hasbro will come along and stick the whole thing in a nondescript black box with just the Selects number on it. >:oP

The Terrorcon comparisons of yesterday and today:

News Credits: 97 · by **-Kanrabat-** » Thu Oct 29, 2020 10:46 am

They are different enough for the hardcore to double-dip.

News Credits: 241 · by **Jelze Bunnycat** » Thu Oct 29, 2020 10:48 am

As a whole, I like the PotP ones better. They have a better color breakup, while the Selects have areas of one color that are a tad too big for my tastes. Some colors seem a tad random and even clash.
