I adore my Jackpot.
Now that the mold is not in "Generations", maybe we will have a Select Ricochet out of it?

Studio Series is part of Generations.

First, godammit typos with a word that shouldn't have been there to begin with.
Second, do far we never got any Select SS figures. As if they are not part of Generations. That's why I put "Generations" in quotation marks.

I got an early shipping notice for Terrorsaur from Hasbro Pulse today, he's coming in January now instead of March, so that'll be a nice early birthday present. I also got an early shipping notice for a Doctor Strange action figure I definitely did NOT order, so that's something I'll have to chase up.

This Studio Series mold isn't of a design that's owned by Paramount, though. Therein lies the difference.

So, now my Scorponok is 'complete'. Amazing what a little height can do.

Also, I recently acquired a semi-holy Grail - Misfire! I basically got him for 40 bucks. He is not a floppy mess, unlike Fangry.

HA!
Damn licensing hell.

So yes, we absolutely could get a second Selects Ricochet out of this mold, if Hasbro felt so inclined to do so a second time.

I got the same thing about Dr Strange so it's either a promo or an error.

I bought the Ark yesterday at a Comic-Con, making him my second ever Titan. He looks pretty good on the display, the trasformation is fairly easy, but I don't think I'm doing the chest plate right, it doesn't seem to fold all the way down even though I'm tabbing it into the right tabs that the instructions show. It feels weird having a Transformer that's bigger than Combiner Wars Devastator after six years of him being the centre piece of my collection, but I'm happy that I bought the Ark. Mainframe is neat too, he fits in with the rest of the Autobot cast surprisingly well.

Glad you like the set. I love the Ark, I named him Iaconus and he is my 2nd favorite titan so far. Mainframe is really neat too. They did a great job with that whole package

The only thing that irks me about The Ark is that the gun turrets don't move. Considering he has no weaponry in robot mode, having at least the arm guns able to point forward would be a problem solver. Was it really that important to the budget to have them fixed in place?

Jackpot's screwed up head brought back to mind that Terrorsaur seems to be coming with the wrong disk. The listings mention the Voyager disk, the disk in the promotional bios is the Voyager disk, the disk depicted in the background graphics of the promotional bios is the Voyager disk, and the boxart that Hasbro is trying to entice customers to "collect and complete" depicts the Voyager disk too.
However, all promo shots of Terrorsaur and the 360 video show him with the Vok disk. It'd be very stupid and sort of funny if Terrorsaur ended up shipping with that disk instead, given how they built the whole identity of the set around the Voyager one.

What disk?
Are you talking about the packaging?
Because for me, the packaging is recycling bin fodder. Nothing more.

The golden disk that comes as an accessory for Terrorsaur.

So the disks only come with the Beasts, not the cars?
Interesting.

[o.supreme]

I think Terrorsaur is the only one that comes with a Golden Disc accessory. It is the same as one of the (2) that came with the Ark.

My contention is on the back both say "sounds of Earth". So basically we only get one side of the Vok with the Ark. The differing symbols on the other side aren't present at all.

I noticed the same thing, it's somewhat annoying.

[Sammythekat]

they couldn't even paint the yellow hubcap black to match.

That's because it's on the POM sprue; the unpaintable plastic sprue.

Same **** as on the OG Jazz, it's a different material to handle stress better.

Exactly. This doesn't bother me though.
Maybe an eventual Reprolabels set would fix any colors discrepancies?

Amazon charged me for regular Tigatron. No shipping notice yet, but I'm glad they didn't cancel it since I used the wishlist trick.

Emerje

Still waiting on them to charge me for Tigatron, as well as Wrecker, Dead end, and my minipufts.

I also haven't gotten a notice from pulse of any golden disk collection figures were moved up from March, huh.

[King Kuuga]

The news report says it's only orders from Amazon.ca that are shipping early.

But I have seen on twitter and swore I saw someone on here say Pulse moved release dates up to January

I haven't gotten any indication Pulse moved them up, for whatever that's worth.

[Nemesis Destron]

I'm so convinced that my Rodimus Prime is stuck out floating in one of the 2 closest harbors on a damn ship and here I am power to do anything.

I ordered from Amazon and haven't gotten any kind of order update, but we know how things are right now, early and late releases are pretty much the way things are right now.

That Toy Guy has posted his video review of Jackpot.



Looks like that head is something everyone have and will have. Better deal with it! Or buy the "upgrade kit" when it's available.

[Rtron]

So they screwed up all the heads? That's some straight up knockoff quality level crap.

I bought some KO that were of HIGHER quality than the original.

So eh, s#it happen.
