All my Walmarts have pretty much given up on carrying any and all Leader class figures, while all my Targets are still stuck with trying to get rid of Leaders from Legacy Evolution (TM2 Megatron, Prime Dreadwing, and Prime Skyquake, in particular).

So Armada Galvatron's pinchers DON'T come off like Megs! :BANG_HEAD:

And damn it to hell that I didn't see the one review that pointed this fact out and I'm in no mood to use too much force or any kind of mod and now I'm pissed! :-x

I guess Hasbro secured them after how loose the horns were on Megatron.

I actually never noticed this on my Galvatron until you pointed it out.

I super glued the horns of my A. Megs.
Problem solved.

Yesterday I received an email saying that Cosmos was shipping delayed until 30DEC2025. That seems strange. Did anyone else get it that preordered?

At Amazon?

Because some Pop Up Parades that I preordered jumped from 4Q 2024 to 4Q 2025. So, there's must be something going on. :-?

I have Cosmos preordered through Amazon and it's saying delivery will by on January 21st. My SS86 Galvatron is supposed to arrive this Friday.

That's very strange, I wonder if it's an error? I just got an email from them saying G2 Deadend should ship today.

My message just said "shipping soon". I actually forgot I pre-ordered him Lol.... 2024 is probably a record year of spending the least amount of Money on Transformers. Not that the product is bad. Its just that my wants list is small, and they just aren't making the characters I am wanting to complete my collection.

In 2024, I think just got all the Armorizers, The last MPG Trainbot (deluxe set), CC Magmatron, The Dinoking Set... and that's it.

For 2025 I'm hoping to get the SS86 Constructicons/Devastator, and *Maybe* Star Convoy if it goes on sale.

I had the same thing happen with Legacy Armada Wheeljack for that same date. Then I got another this morning saying he is scheduled to ship today.

I was on Amazon the other day and noticed Cosmos was sold out there.

Same for me in 2024, I only bought Commander OP, SS86 Bee, Gears, Soundwave, Steeljaw and Frenzy finally arrived last month. I got the following on good sales Medix, Pipes, Sandstorm, Slug, Swoop which balance out the price I paid for Prime and Soundwave since all I wanted were the tapes.

The whole "one of the two reasons" email is not exactly confidence building, especially when both reasons for the email are basically the same.

I got a second email about Cosmos last night as well. But it was same as the first; saying shipping change to 30DEC2025. After I read u guys got a second saying shipping soon I was a bit hopeful, but was same as the first.

Not sure if it is the right thread, but I really love the Xaaron X Flame 2 pack.

Gamer Megs is the perfect body for Flames. The bot and vehicle are pretty much perfect.

As for Xaaron, the comic accuracy is only good when no partforming parts are attached. A nice option. As for the 0% accurate vehicle, it is all forgiven if I consider him to be Seige Soundwave's little brother.

I like the set as well, but I wish Xaaron was voyager class to scale better with Selects Galvatron. Or better yet, he can stay deluxe to scale with Marvel Impactor, but we need a new voyager sized Galvatron. Comic accurate deco.

Just got my Overcharge in hand from Pulse and I'm actually surprised how much I like him? Something about the industrial green and silver-grey makes the things I expected to bother me about this mold (the weird tank cockpit and the tank kibble in jet mode) not really hit me like I thought. The big hands are indeed stupid, but he's got enough other accessories that he's still fully kitted without them. He has such hapless goon energy, he's great.

For some reasons, I just NOW noticed that Xaaron is a repaint/retool of Siege Refraktor.

Anyone triple-dipped of the Flame/Xaaron 2 pack to make the Xaaron "camera"?

I think they retooled Refraktor somewhat so he's no longer combineable.

Maybe you can try with Xaaron and 2 Refraktors if you have them.

On the main body, the only thing that truly changed for the combined mode is that there's no holes for the camera lens to peg on.
Appart that, Xaaron can cube.

Like all the others:

Then, Xaaron can group box.

And finally, Xaaron can camera!

I need 2 more Xaaron to see what I can truly do with a trio of Xaarons. Unfortunately, it is wayyyyy too expensive just to be silly.

if it makes you feel better my Breakdown still hasn't shipped yet and the store says February 1. I have no idea what the point of the email was, I wouldn't put a lot of stock in them.
