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.

Check again its Blackarachnia and Airrazor (also didn't we have this exact same conversation 10-15 pages ago?)

OK, so their site search is convoluted, no wonder I don't use them. I search for "Tigatron", I get the individual listing AND the wave listing. I search for "Pipes" I get just the individual listing. I have no time for such nonsense.
william-james88 wrote: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
Does he? Is Blaster more popular than Tigatron? Or is it just that Tigatron was available online earlier, and most people got him already through preorders?william-james88 wrote:and since Blaster has a bigger demand

As others have stated based on my observations locally about buying patterns, I may live in some sort of "OG" Bubble (in that any OG character in my area tends to outsell BW, or an other line rather quickly). So my initial response would be to say YES Blaster by default is more popular than Tigatron.
However...I've been very vocal about the fact that Tigatron (and his powered up form Tigerhawk) are my favorite BW characters of all time. I really dig all the love this character is getting recently, but I have a question... When did this all happen? I mean I was first getting into the online community when BW was new in 1996 (I lurked on alt.toys, but BW Anonymous Fanfic site was my first ever forum, followed soon after by Ben Yee's).
I remember feeling like I was all alone. Fan reception about Tigatron ranged from "meh" to...."He's nowhere as cool as Dinobot". Now seemingly out of nowhere, he is getting a LOT of love, which is great. Was it the MP toy? Is it just that fans are rediscovering Tigatron through rewatching the series 25 years hence? I'm just curious what lead up to this change?
It's interesting because I experienced the same thing a couple decades ago with Omega Supreme. Not that he was ever hated, but I remember as a kid growing up, I was definitely way more into that character than any of my peers.
Anyway. I'm glad you all are liking what you are seeing of Tigatron, and hope all who want this toy can get it without too much hassle.
To answer your questions on Tigatron, I'll just give my view: I think it has to do with fan maturity. As we get older, see the world differently and become more aware, a lot of us most likely identify with Tigatron over some of the others due to his mostly pacifist personality.o.supreme wrote:Tigatron questions

Possibly... unless there were any Rhinox sightings (Tigatron wave 4's wavemate).

Technically incorrect, the individual who gave us all the Selects listings we currently have said that this would be a Selects figure but they just haven't found a listing for it yet.william-james88 wrote:We do not know how this toy will be released or if it's even coming out, it was not part of any rumoured exclusive list for 2022.
