If Kapow can sell out of Quint pits at £110

...I'm sure Titans are worth their retail price tags.

Having said that, if Hasbro can make profit on commnder classes selling at lows of $40/£45 fprofits on full rrp have to be crazy and the way to go.

Go home, Amazon, you're drunk!

Is that the core class toy? Would be brilliant if you did get it that early :lol:

I got the notice too, I think it's for all the core figures.

That's a blue whale, not a killer whale.

Exact opposite happened with my ER Runamuck last week. Due early november, pushed to early february 2021.

I have Rattrap on preorder through amazon and no email from them about him being moved up, so I don't think it's universal, although it is a universally crappy thing to happen after the same happened to Fasttrack and the Ratchet/Paradon set

Which we have an adaption of... sorta:

Beast Wars Fuzor Torca

Orcas aka Killer Whales are easily made just so you know. Just paint a shark black and white and optionally flip its tail :lol:

We're having a back-and-forth on Kingdom Optimus Primal's misshapen gorilla legs over on the TFW2005 forums. You guys should come join in. Heh.

Okay, okay I admit it, I've just been bored this past couple of days!
Where's all the Kingdom related news...? Grrr....lol.

Speaking of TFW2005, user Seton posted pics of Kingdom Ractonite and Arcee. Yay, another chance to get Arcee for all those asking???

What's the over/under on Core Prime being released by Amazon and delivered by the 11th?

News Credits: 22 · by **Rodimus Prime** » Fri Oct 30, 2020 6:33 pm

Will this Arcee be a straight rerelease of ER Arcee?

News Credits: 9 · by **Sowndwave76** » Fri Oct 30, 2020 6:39 pm

I honestly don't know if I'd buy an Arcee figure if it were only $5...
Although, I'm also the person who won't spend more than $11 including tax for SS86 Blurr.
I don't plan on spending more than $15 to get SS86 Kup.

Yes with the only difference being clever packaging to hide the atrocious backpack.

To each his own. I'm the other way around. I doubt I'd spend even $5 on Kup. I'd get Blurr if I didn't already have the TR version, and I got ER Arcee for $17 mainly to complete the TF:TM cast. Without that huge backpack, she's not a bad looking chick, and she'll be posing on the shelf in robot mode anyway, so the backpack/glider will stay in the box only to come out for vehicle mode.

Woah, Ractonite looks good from what I can see of him. I'm definitely enjoying the Fossilizers (even if I can't come up with a good "why" for them :lol:

)

Agreed... I'm just less and less okay with spending money on TF unless I absolutely dig the look of them. So really, knowing what I've spent on preorders, knowing there's a few that I'm trying to hunt down, all three of those are probably a pass for me.
I'm just so anxious to see Galvatron and SS86 Slag... It's going to be such a disappointment (relatively speaking) if those guys aren't good.

BTW, random thought... If a figure of Skylynx looked more like it did in the cartoon, I'd be in...
The figure always has a head that's way too big... And even if the head were smaller, the neck and tail are still too short... It's like the figure always looks like it's a baby Skylynx.

I guess so. Like they did for Siege / ER Astrotrain.
I take this as GREAT news because she sold out almost instantly and it took AGES for even BBTS to have her in stock. I had to preorder her from there because even my local geek store was and still is unable to keep any stock of her.

Backpack or not.

By the way... Australia's government having lost it's mind banning most if not ALL anime stuff, I think Arcee will be illegal over there sooner or later. Maybe even all transformers too because "it promote violence and child exploitation" or something. 8-}

So, aussies, better start building the smugglers routes before you get screwed out of your hobby forever.

That Fossilizer looks fantastic! If I can remove his beast mode head, and let my figures use it as a shield, my life would be complete!

So, I mentioned in an early post that I'm hoping we get to see some figures in Kingdom for Inferno (Ant), Terrorsaur and Tarantulas. But I also just found something else that caught my interests, courtesy of the amazing IDW comics....

....Why are we not funding these???

Wow! "Ask and you shall receive" LOL. Thanks for sharing this!

I was hoping to wait for repaints of the Fossilizers as Maximals but !MAN! Ractonite looks awesome...

Depends on which of the five hundred Dinobots origins or even IDW you want to go by, Beastmode future Grimlock (green version of BW Megatron) was pretty usleless (and back to being dumb) against Magmatron and IDWs not been creative enough to have the maximals/preds find the G1 dinobots stomping around Earth failing to protect the Ark some how (yet, anyways) so to me they wouldnt need beast mode figures but they might look cool still.
