Everything above Core Class should have a card. They are kind of hidden in the cardboard, not loose in the box.

They're in a special sleeve on the back of the insert, the non-straight side. Took me a while to find them.
May I say how the cards and loose accessories are packaged is counterintuitive?

Not just that, now we have loads of annoying plastic circles. That plastic could have gone to making the packaging windows a bit bigger and way less messier to open the figure.

I assume you mean the BW characters in their alt modes? I believe in their robot modes they do have a couple 5mm ports, although far fewer than the original series characters. I've seen pics of Paleotrex armored up on Blackarachnia, Cheetor, and Optimus Primal.

I was considering myself uninterested in Kingdom until I saw Tricranius, which for whatever reason looks like a really awesome toy to me, but I would want another beastformer to go along with it for Fossilizer usage. Looks like that's not really an option! Oh well.
Posted: Tue Apr 20, 2021 3:25 pmApparently, Optimus can wear the bone armor like in the picture but with the Fossilizer's limbs wrapped around the neck like a necklace, or around the torso like shoulder straps.-Kanrabat- wrote:just_aCloud wrote:Thanks for all the responses everyone.

If I find an Optimus Primal on super clearance, I'll double dip and drill some holes in him so that he can wear BONE ARMOR like in the promo pics.

There's also the Fossilizer Combiner, that is pretty awesome.
I will be substituting Transmutate and Tricranius on mine. Also hoping for a Predacon repaint of Wingfinger to have Two solid-faction combiners.

One small warning about that Combiner. I tried to make some pieces of it with Paleotrex and Ractonite, but some of the latter's pegs have a bit of a hard time sliding into the ports of the former. To be precise the T-Rex head and the Styraco torso have a hard time connecting, not helped by the peg being so short and folding into Ractonite's head.

On today's episode: We've now seen every figure from WFC-K01 to WFC-K30...and then we jump to Tricranius as WFC-K39, meaning K31-K38 are unaccounted for. Theoretically 6 of those 8 numbers could be the Wave 4 figures, but Hasbro tends to put exclusives in a middle chunk of the numbering system and then end with the last retail wave, so those 8 are presumably exclusives (assuming Hasbro doesn't SKIP A NUMBER AGAIN).
In terms of exclusives that should be coming, we've had a mix of rumors/leaks for (not including the Golden Disc figures, in case they aren't numbered like the Galactic Odyssey sets):
-Sideswipe & Nightprowler
-Mirage & BW2 Skywarp
-Whatever the Kingdom 4-pack contains
-BW Grimlock? (He was initially rumored to come with Sideswipe, whether he's still in the cards we don't know)
If those 3 multipacks individually number the figures they come with (like the Siege Target exclusives & Fan Vote set), then that's all 8 figures. If at least one of them has one number for the whole set, not each figure (like the Earthrise exclusives), then we've for certain got exclusive figures coming we still don't know about.

I tried that too, only problem I had was that ractonites ball-jointed neck can't support the weight of the torso
