Greetings Seibertronians! I come with good news and bad news. Good news: fellow Seibertron users LOST Cybertronian and Sean Nolan, have sent us word that preorders for the Transformers x Back To The Future collaboration figure, Gigawatt, have gone live over at Hasbro Pulse! Accompanying the listing is new stock photos, again with the tinted windows.

I said there would be bad news however, and that's the fact that at the time of writing, the preorders are sold out. It is unknown whether more stock will be made available to meet demand or if that was it. Other places also have preorders, such as RobotKingdom, TFSource and for UK fans, InDemandToys have preorders live.

Thanks to fellow Seibertron user, Sabrblade who identified these listings, and Walmart still has preorders available.

Walmart - https://www.walmart.com/ip/154588355

Amazon - https://www.amazon.com/dp/B085JRK7T1/

GameStop - https://www.gamestop.com/11102590.html

Are you trying to track down a preorder for this figure? Have you managed to secure one? Let us know in the Energon Pub and stay tuned to Seibertron for all the latest news and reviews!

More Bots. More News. More Awesome.

The Pre-orders on Pulse were sold out hours before this post even went live. <.<

Unbelievable.

Well, not really. Whoever handles distribution at Hasbro needs to be beaten with a bat. Repeatedly. :HEADHURTS:

Any clue as to why the hell Amazon is trying to charge $50 when everyone else is at $30?

They have been informed and are adjusting the price. Question, are there any differences between the toy in this release as opposed to the Walmart exclusive that sold out in 5 nano seconds?

The windows are tinted darker instead of clear, better hiding all the windshield greeble.

Some have also said something about the silver paint on his robot mode chest too, but I can't see what's different about that.

I "highly" recommend using Target with redcard. Took 5% off the cost and got free shipping. Final cost for me was... $31.27. And it's only that high due to 9.75% sales tax in Tennessee.

Seems like I just can't get this guy.


EDIT: Got one from Gamestop, but it would have been free shipping from Pulse.

Missed out on Pulse, so I pre-ordered from Walmart and would pay for shipping since Amazon was showing a ridiculous $50 for the price. Then I remembered Amazon's price guarantee and ordered there as a backup plan at the mistake price of $50 in hopes they get it corrected before Walmart ships.

Then Saber posted the link for Target, which didn't work for me, but a search of target for Gigawatt worked just fine and pre-ordered there with the Redcard to boot. Then cancelled the Walmart pre-order.

Keeping the Amazon one for now because I'm still irritated at Target for cancelling a couple pre-orders I got back during the BOGO 50% sale and don't 100% trust them, but I'll probably drop Amazon, especially if they don't fix the price soon.

:BANG_HEAD:

Yeah, the order page was there when I first got the link, but now it's gone. :???:

I was one of the lucky ones that got their preorders in at Pulse. Personally I’d rather have preordered from BBTS since something feels odd about the last couple of Pulse orders I’ve put in (STILL waiting for them to ship the PulseCon exclusives I got a head start on thanks to Pulse Premium) but maybe they’ll pull through.

I managed to get one from Pulse, thank goodness I was tipped off on Twitter to the pre-orders about to go live, they went live at Smyths in the UK at like 10:00 this morning eastern.

Looking forward to him, he'll arrive at the same time as the Prime guys

I panicked when I saw he was sold out on Pulse, and then the price on Amazon. I managed to get one on Target and with the Red Card, got free shipping and total was $30 and 27 cents I believe. Not bad. About time I managed to get my hands on one of these.

You either live in Illinois or have the same tax rate, my sincere condolences :-D

That was my total as well.

Living in Australia and not feeling the love of Hasbro Pulse and their offering of Gigawatt?

Well, you can save yourself the hassle of ordering from overseas because EB Games have just listed Gigawatt for pre-order!

But wait, there's more!*

Continuing with tradition, Zing have also listed Gigawatt for pre-order.

Both EB Games and Zing are offering Gigawatt for sixty-nine dollary doos with a $10 deposit.

Both sites list Gigawatt being released this coming December, hopefully in time for my birthday.

EB Games and Zing's listings follow a brief appearance by Gigawatt on Amazon Australia which quickly sold out.

Jumping on the Gigawatt band wagon? Want to know more about Burn's December birthday? Then join us today** on the Energon Pub Forums!
