Thanks to the Pulse restocks, I just ordered Tigertrack! I initially passed, regretted it, pre-ordered on TFsource, and now I have an actual one purchased. Couple bucks saved doing it this way. My 3rd differently colored Sideswipe is on the way, and hopefully Deep Cover follows next year.

I love the Lambro molds, can't wait to have 3 of each.

Also was charged for my God Neptune as well. Looks like he is on his way soon

Same here, and based upon what happened with Super Megatron I think we will be receiving a shipping notice by next Thursday with delivery a week after.

I got charged Tuesday for my Super Megs from Pulse and tracking has him here tomorrow. They do ship pretty fast bouts half the time with me.

Yeah I think if you are anywhere in EST you get in 1-2 days, Midwest seems to be 2-3, but it takes a full week to get to the west coast for some reason. I guess itcould be worse... at least its coming.

For Bug Bite, he literally went through Arizona to some small city in California then back to Arizona for delivery in Phoenix. No clue what that was about.

He just wanted to see the ocean once (unless it was some small town in the CA inland), before resting permanently in your home AZ

Postal routing can be drunk sometimes.

I had an Outbound package going from Georgia to Alabama this week. It arrived in Birmingham then the next scan was in some nowhere town on the bottom of Florida. Then it made it back to Alabama and my recipient got it today. I suspect what happened in both instances is that the item got placed on the wrong truck (or plane) by accident asking with other parcels destined for that area's hub.

Super Megatron should be arriving tomorrow. Hoping he's as good in hand as he looks in all the pictures online. And God Neptune's been paid for after a bit of technical difficulties. I'm hoping he'll ship soon, but at least I know he should be on the way soon

I gots my Super Megatron earlier this morning. He is beautiful and everything I expected. Been a really long wait, since 1999 when I found out about him, also from the 2 delays and pre-order near a year ago. All the joints are tight, better than TR Galvatron and the paint is great. Super sweet figure. I could maybe see Kingdom Galvatron retooled from this with extra parts to make a leader class. The Energon extra parts people have been speculating could work.

Super Megatron is one of those hindsight misses for me. Besides, I have lot of pre-orders coming this month likely, starting with God Neptune. Had I known when Star Convoy was first revealed, they were going to make a Super Megatron, I would have tried to budget for both, oh well. Can't have em' all, no matter how amazing they are.

OMG HE IS SO BIG!
That's what she said!

Ever since I found out most Generations figures have the port for a figure stand I look for it every time I get a new figure and Super Megatron did not disappoint!

News Credits: 56 · Sun Dec 06, 2020 6:24 pm

Just got my God Neptune shipping confirmation. Hopefully it will be here by Friday. Odd it's coming from some place in Georgia, most Pulse orders come from RI or PA.

Where in Georgia? If there's a Hasbro distribution facility in my backyard I'd like to know about it.

Super Megatron came from Atlanta, Georgia while God Neptune is coming from Hanover, Pennsylvania. I've had several Pulse orders come from both.

Pulse doesn't make it easy to figure out but I am pretty sure I've been charged for G2 Megatron. I've seen a few people on Twitter in the UK that already have theirs but I didn't expect those of us on the NA continent to see it until next year.

Kennesaw?...Oddly enough looks like the label was made in Hanover PA (where most orders I'm used to come from), they probably just processed the label there, but hopefully to get the items out quicker transferred it down to GA.

I'm in California. I ordered G2 Megatron and Sandstorm together from EntertainmentEarth since Pulse's pre-order listing for Sandstorm was sold out by the time I decided to pull the trigger. I actually got G2 Megs from them a couple of weeks ago, and Sandstorm got shipped over the weekend.

I have no clue why Pulse has been lagging so badly when it comes to stocking their own product, but it seems other North American e-tailers are on top of it.

Unfortunately, my Super Megs came with an assembly error; the tank tread panel on the right leg is a second left leg panel, leaving it unable to sit flush or tab in in any of the three modes.

I finally got G2 Megatron and he is pure awesomeness! :DANCE:

But what would a TF be without it's flaws? :-P

It would be great if a 3rd party could make a decent shoulder mounted heavy barrel canon. ;)^

My God Neptune should be here tomorrow, excited for it.

I got my Tigertrack yesterday, he is pretty neat

Tue Dec 08, 2020 6:54 pm

Super Megs is glorious! Very nice packaging too!
My new favorite figure!

P.S. turn him upside down and he's a gun. Pass it on!

News Credits: 1 · Tue Dec 08, 2020 8:54 pm

I finally got Super Megatron too (along with some other preorders finally coming in). I'm glad i decided to go with him after my initial reluctance. He really is a nice figure.
