We Finally have a Listing for Dinoking+ Cannonball, Target Themed Optimus and More

william-james88 wrote:We knew a repaint of the core class Volcanicus combiner as Dinoking would be coming, it was hinted at since day 1. But it's nice to finally have that listing though. As assumed, it will be released as one combiner and not individual components/dinos. The listing has it as a Pulsecon exclusive. Speaking of exclusives, we also have an update for Walmart's 2024 exclusive Legacy subline with the addition of deluxe Cannonball. Those listings were found by JTPrime17 along with a listing of a Target exclusive Optimus Prime toy styled in Target colours, the next GI Joe Transformer crossover figure and 2 more classic heroes figures, which are the Rescue Bots styled figures.

To me, anyway. Not sure how the colors would mesh with the Dinoking colors, but here it is.

Just wait for the inevitable Dinoking-colored version. This company typically makes releases for each different-colored version of the figure it makes kits for.

Did anyone have luck finding all 6 Dinobots at regular retail? It seemed like every Target around me somehow skipped the first pair, so I stopped caring when the other 4 showed up.

Maybe unrelated but stranger: for a week or 2, RotB Core Arcee was in every Target I checked, but apparently street dated and unpurchasable. Never, ever saw one after that, period, so IDK if fast-acting collectors pounced in every store right on said date?

Sorry if I'm asking something that's been common knowledge for months, but ever since Core Class became a thing, its distribution has seemed particularly odd. Was it just after-effects of all the pegwarming Shockwaves at the beginning? Never thought I'd be so glad to see such small TFs get rereleased at a higher price point.

The Skids mold would work.



These two were the custom class options for TFCon Orlando 2023.

I have seen most of the core Dinos at Target, but I ordered online so as to not leave anything to chance. The last wave has repacks of Sludge and Slag as well for those that missed them the first time.

Yes an eventual Momsttuctor.ad well would be cool....but what would be even better would be to have new ones down the.lineas deluxe or voyagers to be properly scaled to the animated series.
