What's with all the Google ads popups when clicking anything on here recently

Looking forward to Terrorsaur and it should compliment TL batconvoy pretty well. I'm pretty wary of preorders at the mo knowing black zaraks still to be paid for as well as a few of the tmnt power ranger packs (which I can see being half price in little to no time but something I don't want to risk not having the full set of).

Are these ads pc only? I don't get them on my phone :-?

News Credits: 18 · by **blackeyedprime** » Wed Dec 01, 2021 4:31 pm

Phone as well as pc, eg clicking reply or to next page will bring up a little ad box. It's only happened a few times so far but enough for me to have gone from thinking that's weird to it doesn't look like a one off.

Puffer and Ranger are on their way and should be here Friday. December 3rd is quite a jump from March 3rd lol. Now, if only we can get PIPES to show up for retail. :-D

I think it's time that the Toy of the Year actually had some images shared in here. Because he is truly wonderful.

This has been happening to me too, and some of the ads are very "clickbait garbage" in nature. It's only happening with Seibertron.com, though, I think specifically in the forums.

Also Kingdom core class Rodimus pics out on the Web, kapow posted a fuzzy photo from someplace

Looks like it is on Kingdom promotional background rather than legacy

There's a lot going on with his feet, and like the Core seeker mold he has a faux chest, but overall Hot Rod looks good.

I do wish that where possible the designers for the class would take more inspiration from the original toys than more modern toy transformations, but the results have been pretty good so far.

We have great news to share with you, especially to those who feared the dreadful final wave syndrome. Transformers Kingdom voyager wave 5 has been found at US retail. It consists of Blaster (with Eject) and Tigatron. TF fan LoneDragon found this at a Walmart in Southwest Virginia. Here are the wave contents:

2x Blaster
1x Tigatron

If you have found them, share your sightings with our community in the sightings section and on our boards in your region related thread.

This sighting was originally posted here.

After Hasbro said that Pipes, Blaster and Slammer would be the final toys released in Kingdom, we get news that there may be one other new toy coming out before the line's end. It is core class Hot Rod. Now we had seen him in the Legacy wave 1 reveal poster, but now we get an actual look at the toy with a fuzzy image that any bigfoot enthusiast would appreciate. We see him in both modes and it's clear enough to see that the chest is very different from the car's actual front. The packaging is from the Kingdom line so it looks like Hot Rod will be in the final core wave of Kingdom and then in the first wave of Legacy.

The toy is available on e-bay right now for $26 and free shipping: https://www.ebay.com/itm/284550210831?h ... d=TFWNews2

1. Voyager Wave 4 just came out and now wave 5 is showing up? Makes me wonder if the person that found Tigatron had actually missed a bunch of Blasters.

2. That Core Hot Rod looks pretty good aside from the weird legs.

Wow. Death knows a lot of things, but I sure can't figure out Hasbro's distribution system. They make us wait months for some waves, while others burst into existence seemingly overnight.

It's not "Hasbro's distribution system," it's global shipping networks. It's not like someone at Hasbro is flipping levers so that a random store in the US puts out their case of toys later than everyone else while another in a different part of the country has them much earlier.

Looks cool, but it's still a pass for me.

News Credits: 48 · by **Nemesis Primal** » Thu Dec 02, 2021 11:36 am

Well, that would certainly explain one of the missing entries in the Kingdom numbering.

News Credits: 18 · by **blackeyedprime** » Thu Dec 02, 2021 11:42 am

I didn't even notice the baby legs dangling off the back of the feet at first. Skipped all the cores so far but I think legacy (or how much t30 rattrap costs) will change that.

Smart, had not thought of that. So maybe wave 4 didn't hit the US yet. Both were found at Walmart and since Blaster has a bigger demand, so maybe those were bought first, leaving that person to find Tigatron.

Possibly... unless there were any Rhinox sightings (Tigatron wave 4's wavemate). I mean it partially makes sense that they would include Tigatron also in wave 5... But part of me still wishes it was Inferno

Kingdom Voyager Breakdown:

Wave 1 Primal(2) Cyclonus(1)
Wave 2 Dinobot(2) Inferno(1)
Wave 3 Rhinox (2) Cyclonus (1)
Wave 4 Tigatron (2) Rhinox (1) (this just makes no sense to me but...)
Wave 5 Blaster (2) Tigatron (1)

As you can see, there is an Inferno shortage. Unless Hasbro thought he might not sell well based on ER Grapple (which while it did shelf warm somewhat, still sold well, at least in my area).

I've seen Inferno only ONCE ever in store, while I saw Dinobot plenty of times when that wave was around. I personally am not looking to purchase Inferno (I got Artfire and am happy with that), and I also know some sites still have Inferno in stock, but despite his similarities to Grapple, kids are way more into Firetrucks than Utility trucks. Now we know Inferno is seemingly the least produced Voyager from all of Kingdom. I just hope anybody who wants one got it.

Wave 5 IS Blaster and Tigatron, I don't get the question marks. Entertainment Earth is your friend for those questions.

Not everyone looks at EE, and last I checked, it was not made known on any public forum, but thanks for the update all the same.

The thing with Grapple is he was 2 to 1 in wave along with Starscream, so of course it seemed like there were a ton of him.

Dude that Terrorsaur looks wicked awesome. Much better than even the stock photos. Hes the only one I ordered from the golden discs. So after him and Pipes I am done with Kingdom, WFC was great.

For the people talking bouts the ads here; dont u use Adblock Plus? I never get any ads anywhere online when I use it basically.

All the Kingdom Voyagers that came 2 per case didn't seem to have issues selling (Primal, Dinobot (was the slowest, but still sold well), and Rhinox so far).

I just checked EE to see who the other deluxes are that are coming in wave 5 with Pipes & Slammer, they didn't have a listing for that yet, so..yeah...not the greatest source of info.
