These are just off the cuff, but should get the ball rolling, Stargrave.

I need some fun cheesy Siege weapon names for these loadouts help me out gang:

"Riot and Rescue"

"Rad Racer"

"Ptero-Tactical Striker"

"Mighty 'Merica"

"Six Boom Shield"

[no-one]

Dude how crazy is it this that Amazon seems more equipped or at the ready to handle the issue

I think Hasbro is still relatively new at being a retailer. Of course they don't seem to be that great at being a distributor at times either

I pinged Hasbro Pulse customer service when they first went online and found them to be nice and helpful, but I don't expect much from the first line of support techs.

"Rad Racer"

Sideswipe needs his 3D glasses for that one

Man, I just don't get what I'm missing about this Megatron, every time I look at him he seems like the weakest mold out of Siege, but everyone seems to love him.

To be fair, out of Siege, he is. I like the mold as do others, but it's not for everyone.

I can picture the last one in the anime, six gun and Optimus Prime running onto battle...

Op: "looks like Ironhide is being pinned down..."
SG: "We got to do something Prime...I know, a new weaponize!"
Op: "I can't ask you to do that Six Gun"
SG: "You don't have to ask! Weaponize!... SIX SHIELD!"

[Stargrave]

Oh Ptero-Tactical Striker is brilliant you guys crack me up I want to believe Stakeout and Swindler are somehow energized as shields but really they’re just human shields let’s be real here...I keep envisioning someone running through battle and just grabbing some innocent Micromaster come here buddy I need you for a sec time to give it all for the cause

[Hellscream9999]

So I just checked Pulse and Jetfire isn't even listed right now. I think they really underestimated demand for this figure. I complained to Amazon about the delay and they credited me the difference of the retail vs a 3rd party seller. So luckily mine is shipping out today from that seller.

I'm curious what the issue is in general though.

Honestly? They probably weren’t sure how it was gonna be received by fans, I mean we may have all liked it, but that doesn’t translate into sales

He is one of the weaker molds. He has one o the weakest alt modes for sure, and a rather standard transformation. It’s all about the bot mode with him.

Many fans are looking forward to the Transformers War for Cybertron: Siege WFC-S27 Decepticon Phantomstrike Squadron, and definitely for the WFC-S28 Commander Class Jetfire. While we have gotten numerous in hand photos of the two, today, we have English reviews for them, courtesy of Chefatron. If you forgot, the Decepticon Phantomstrike Squadron has Voyager Class Skywarp, as well as Battle Masters Decepticon Fracas (Scourge's Targetmaster), Shrute (current name for Spinister's Targetmaster, Hairsplitter), and Terror-Daxtyl. Chefatron is very content with the set, enjoying the additional Battle Masters, and appreciating the unified color scheme, a welcome surprise for him. He ends up giving the set a 10 out of 10. Watch the review below!


Chefatron also has a review up for up for Jetfire, and we can truly see how big he is once again, compared to an upgraded Unite Warriors Computron, who is the same height. We also see an undocumented feature not in the instructions, where he has a removable engine, where a Titan Master/Prime Master could take his place. Chefatron shows to be very pleased by the figure, and also gives the figure a 10 out of 10. The review can be view below!


Tell us your new thoughts on these figures if you've seen the reviews in the Pub forums below!

Well Skywarp looks really great in his purple, silver and "lighter shade of black" deco
I'm seriously looking forward to completing the Seeker set.

I used to not care for Chefatron, but I like how playful he's gotten

It's nice to see Red Wing and Skywarp has fixed the chest popping action.

You're not alone. I'm quite happy with TR Megatron, so have no desire to replace him with Siege Megs.

Same here. TR Megs is a great figure.
I do want Selects Megatron, but he'll be Megaplex in my collection.

That Jetfire though.......

"Rad Racer"

Sideswipe needs his 3D glasses for that one

Yep, that's exactly where I was going with that, lol! 80's nerds!

Fans were quaking in their boots for War for Cybertron: Siege Titan Class Omega Supreme coming out in August 2019, however, it seems that there may be a potential delay for the set of the year.



Hasbro Pulse has the release date set for October 1st, Amazon has it for October 4th, but, Big Bad Toy Store still has Omega Supreme slated for August 2019. It's hard to exactly pinpoint what this could be due to, but hopefully, more details will stroll in during San Diego Comic-Con.



The madness continues for Siege Voyager Class Thundercracker, who on Hasbro Pulse awaits release on October 1st, and on Target on October 6th. Meanwhile, Amazon has him set for August 1st, and Big Bad Toy Store is set to release in July.

What is your take on this madness? Let us know, as well as if you're disappointed, in the Pub forums below.

Hey, I know I'm really late to this, but haven't had internet all day until now. I would like to point out:

Y'know and maybe get some news credits... I know I kinda buried it in the bottom of the post, and I have no idea on how to submit things to the news staff...

[SgtNateV]

Did anyone else notice he didn't have the backpack transformed right?

Technically, you are the first one to mention that, to my knowledge, so I will hand ya a news credit!

On the top right hand side of the website, one option should say "Submit News."

The great coincidence with that picture is that I'm going to meet Dan Gilvezan at the end of this month.

Got my jet fire in the mail today. I’m still undecided on if I’m keeping him, or making a few bucks on eBay.......



I really kinda want this guy, but the Siege line has been so incredibly disappointing to me, I’m afraid of opening it and being let down.

I'm sure a good deal of Siege's budget has gone into making Jetfire a good figure, there's a high chance you'll like him.

That's kinda uncool to say that... there are a lot of other people who have had their order delayed, and you come along with a ho-hum attitude on whether or not you'll even keep him

That's the way the cookie crumbles, son.

If that's the energy you want to emit into this world...

Has QC truly been that bad for Siege? Beside the odd loose single ankle on figures I've had no crummy ones compared to POTP where it seemed like everything was a factory error.
