Greetings Seibertronians! Did you catch all the reveals from Pulsecon? Annoyed/upset that those figures won't be in your hands till sometime next year? Well let's focus on a toy that some of you are receiving right now! That being Shattered Glass Deluxe Class Goldbug!

Fellow Seibertron users, Chuckdawg1999, and Thundertron have done video reviews for this figure, and fellow Seibertron user, D-Maximal_Primal, has furnished us with pictures of this evil Autobot!

Chuckdawg1999's video review

This is what Chuckdawg1999 had to say about this figure:

chuckdawg1999 wrote:For the sixth use of the mold, Goldbug feels like a first or second release. Other than that how desirable the figure is to you depends on how you feel about the Shattered Glass concept and if you like how the figure looks. Transformation is the same, articulation is the same, the accessories are the same, everything is the same as we saw before. By this point, everything just feels flat, but your experience might be different.

Thundertron's Video Review

Here's what Thundertron had to say about it:

In Hand Pictures

We were supposed to get Megatron first, so the comics are out of order (Megs has issue 3, Goldbug issue 4).

Looking at my recent orders, it appears that the release date of Artfire is being changed to--it was November, but now says January.

Hurray for shipping delays... ugh.

When you mention delays, does that include Ravage? I didn't think it was a pre-order.

Also, how garbage does the Buzzworthy Bumblebee look next to the Cliffjumper mold? :lol:

Another also, when is UK getting that Buzzworthy 4-Pack with the Nemesis Primal and Boxart Blackarachnia?

Since I'm getting the regular comics, I'm good...but yeah. Even I'll have to sit on issue 4 as issue 3 isn't out yet.

Wouldn't it be nice if we got an actual Goldbug out of the Netflix Bumblebee mold with that head? I'm sure in a couple of years someone will think of it.

I'm sure it has already been thought of multiple times. VW and licensing is the problem with that mold apparently. I'm not sure we'll see it again unless something changes on VW's end.

This ^, a VW Beetle Bee is not something that we're likely to get often and may also be a one and done deal.

Okay so this is weird, someone on this site posted a sighting at Target for SG Blurr, at 2 different stores yesterday. I had no idea Target was going to carry them and this definitely has me intrigued. If they will end up carrying the SG line, I would love to be able to find SG Jetfire at Target during one of their sales.

I think

should have armed Goldbug with some different weapons rather than the same one's this mold has been stuck with...'nuff said! :VEHI:

I got a shipping notice from Pulse on Goldbug. Pulse has always used Fedex in the past for anything I've ordered, and my order says they shipped it Fedex, but the tracking number is clearly a UPS number (with a Z for the second digit). The link for the tracking number leads to Fedex's site and comes up as invalid.

I went to UPS's site and the tracking number works, it should be here Sunday, with label created as the current status.

My Ravage is shipping UPS too. Might have something to do with all the shipping issues.

Same here, at least for Ravage the link says UPS Tracking number and goes to UPS' site, so looks like they fixed the site to match and use the proper shipper's website link.

Megatron's ship date on Pulse has now changed again from November 1st to today with zero fanfare, curious to see how this goes.

Comment by D-Maximal_Primal Oct 26, 2021

Pulse shipped my Goldbug via UPS, and that is how my Ravage is coming too. Weird change.

I checked my credit card, no charge for Megatron yet, so we will see what happens.

Goldbug is pretty OK. He looks nice, but the fact that he uses that specific mold lets it down for me. He really needed to use the Hot Rod or Runamuck mold

I got charged for Megatron,that was a nice surprise.

Just got my Goldbug from UPS and he is way awesome. Has anyone tried removing the head from a Cliff or Netflix Bee mould? But mainly I want to point out how sweet looking this SG packaging is. Only 2 Im getting from this "wave" are Goldbug and Blurr, but those boxes are nice.

Yeah, there's something going on with that. I paid for mine THEN got a Pulsecon Zartan, and Zartan just shipped but still no Megatron.

IF I had to guess, he'll ship by Wednesday afternoon. Last few times I got properly charged on a Friday, it shipped the following wednesday and arrived Friday

You got a Zartan in stock? Mine was a pre-order for February.
