Is Skyfire delayed everywhere? The status on TFsource & BBTS still says "pre-order."

His status at Hasbro Pulse just went to sold out as well a few minutes ago. Something's up

I wonder if they under anticipated demand? I guess people are willing to pay more for nicer stuff

I think those 3P sites have just been getting them later now that more official retailers such as HP and Amazon are getting them. (BBTS would bet them before B&M, but Jetfire is only available online as far as I know so...)

One Question though....Did anyone who just went to Amazon and purchased him on Monday get him already? Because if so...that's kind of messed up if they sent out orders immediately showing it's in stock, while someone who pre-ordered months ago didn't get theirs.

So he's not delayed. Was just released on Monday July 1, (on HP and Amazon) and seems to have sold out quite quickly. More stock will come in time however I'm sure

Do you have Thrilling 30 Leader Class Jetfire on hand to do a comparison shot? I want to see if I can just swap in the new Commander Class Jetfire in my current 1984 Autobots display without having to rearrange everything.

Ask and you shall receive. Here is one with the 2 of them, and another with an assortment.

Thanks so much for that! I got notice that my Siege Jetfire is shipping from Hasbro Pulse just this morning. Unfortunately, I probably will have to rearrange my display shelves to fit him in where I had the T30 version. That one just barely fits because I rotated the booster pack around 180 degrees to shorten the "backpack" and just barely make the clearance on that shelf's "ceiling."

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.

That's cool. Amazon gave me a $10 discount on my next purchase, which benefits them more, because I will have to buy from them again to use it. And I'm not sure if I will, they have failed to fulfill my pre-orders too many times.

If BBTS or TFS get their stock first I will probably ditch my Amazon pre-order. Maybe I should do it anyway, and if it goes up again, use the $10 discount.

I would like to know.

Yeah, they gave me a $29.01 promotional credit. So you can only use it on items sold by Amazon. But in the long run, the money would be spent either way, so I was cool with it.

Can't say I'm good with that sort of thing, but I really like what you did with Flak and I LOVE that Sixgun shield configuration

[Stargrave]

It’s like a total Zulu shield I love it it’ll slay ya from any angle

Dude how crazy is it this that Amazon seems more equipped or at the ready to handle the issue I mean for Hasbro Pulse to remove the item, yikes, right? Like they’re called the Pulse for a reason

I guess I just figure Hasbro Pulse orders would get filled first. I haven’t ordered enough on line to know what I’m talking about I’m just sayin but it’s all Greek to me it seems nutty foofoo.

[o.supreme]

ok, so here's what *Ronald* at Hasbro Pulse had to say.....

Hi O.Supreme, Thank you for reaching out to us. We do apologize if a product is no longer available on our website. There is a chance it may be back, but we can never guarantee. We ask that you please keep checking our website as inventory can change frequently along with the products which are available at any given time

Sorry I imagine a guy at a computer with a large selection of generic stock answers to choose form, and this was one of them Thanks Ronny......

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.

I hadn't picked this figure up yet....glad I waited.

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"

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.

[ZeroWolf]

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

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!

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.......
