I like to think that Jhiaxus' orange deco is his "G1" look. His original comic book appearance, which was in the Marvel G2 comics, is his "G2" redeco.

Interesting. My wallet is thankful but I was hoping to get another figure with a Merc faction symbol sooner rather than later. Isn't the only difference between Hasbro and Takara Soundblaster the faction symbol? Wonder what the hold up is.

Not sure if any place besides Robot Kingdom has Volcanicus in stock yet, (online reviews have started to appear) but correct me if I am wrong, but other retailers usually get it about a month before Pulse? Or is it 2 months? I am hoping that if others are getting it now, then Pulse will get it before the early May delay date.
A delay notice email for Abominus & Soundblaster hasn't been sent out yet, but I expect it sometime this week.

So Pulse sent me an email trying to get me to buy a premium membership (no chance) indicating big drop today with with exclusive access from 1:00-2:00 for premium members.
Most of the recent drops gave a 3 hour window for premium members, so I'm wondering what it might be. I'm hoping it is something worth the hype. My wallet is hoping it is an MP so I can pass.

I put MP's and Haslab Unicron in the same type of category. They look awesome, but just aren't for me. I like to actually play with my TF's and transform them quite a bit. With MP's and Unicron, I would probably only transform them each only once or twice out of fear that I might break something. Just way too much money for something I won't actually use much.

My wallet and I would both be okay with that since I already have him. Oddly enough I saw 2 on the shelf sometime last week.

Did they specify a time zone for this 1:00 PM to 2:00 PM window?

ET, which I'm now realizing is a kinda funny coincidence that Hasbro uses that timezone, and they might be revealing alien robots

Agreed. That's why I only have 4 MPs. I got a bit hyped for Unicron at 1st but then I cooled off.TF-fan kev777 wrote:Rodimus Prime wrote:TF-fan kev777 wrote:My wallet is hoping it is an MP so I can pass.

However, with Galvatron's reveal, I'm really looking forward to his Selects version. I always liked the silver/light blue better than the purple.

I wish I could go back and confirm, but it just seems to me of all the times Pulse used the adjective "Epic" to advertise an upcoming toy reveal on their site (which they have several times), it's never been a Transformer.
