chuckdawg1999 wrote:Shockwave is a good deluxe figure but I feel it falls short when compared to Bumblebee and Megatron. My one big issue is the neon-pink rubber cable that connects the large cannon to the backpack; it's way too stiff out of the box and even after working it can still limit arm articulation. Overall, Shockwave is a solid purchase but I would recommend the other figures in the wave first.

The included Ion Blaster while small, features quite a bit of detail but I feel the Matrix is where the included blast effect will spend most of its time. Overall, this is a solid figure but not the home run that I was hoping for.

While this toy was found in Canada, we still have yet to see any of these toys in other countries, so if you find them, let us know.

Read the article.Black Hat wrote:Correct me if I'm wrong, but this totally-not-Lugnut is female, right? I can kinda dig the idea of Lugnut having a sister that turns into a tank. I'm not so keen on this figure, but still, cool concept.

I'm not sure about Trash Crash drone. Unless the is a way to securely lock the arms i might toss it into the garbage bin and find a suitable weapon for Grimlock.

I dont like thst the armour is spring loaded. The base toy is ok but lacks important articulation points. I returned mine.

I really dig the set. Grimlock has a unique transformation, it always impresses me how Hasbro can find a new way to go from Dinosaur to robot. The garbage truck can be fiddly if you don't know how it locks into place.

Cyberverse Quintession with Shockwave and Prowl pack. The Quintession has a rotating head gimmick and Prowl and Shockwave have helmets (possibly to brainwash them)

Just saw the tweet and was going to post it as well. I wonder if this is related to the Quintesson rumors that popped up in the Earthrise thread. I may have to pick this up!

It doesn't appear to be a Target exclusive, and is showing up at retail right now, despite never being officially confirmed or shown at any show or convention.
So are you going to try and find this pack? Excited to have another Quintesson figure after 14 years? Let us know what you think below, and please report your sightings in your local sightings pages to help your fellow collectors.

That's because they are. ;')

To be fair, Earthrise is set before the Ark reaches Earth, with the line's story being about the Ark's journey through space.frogbat wrote:It would seem that this was the mystery Quintesson figure that was posted about a few weeks back... was hoping for an earth rise figure, though that would make little sense. Maybe for a post earth rise imprint.
