New Video Review of Transformers Generations Selects Deluxe Class Tigertrack

Posted by ZeroWolf Oct 18, 2020 at 3:27pm CDT 33,870 views
Greetings Seibertronians! Fellow Seibertron user, and YouTube toy reviewer, Thundertron has let us know that they've done a new video review of the forthcoming Transformers Generations Selects Deluxe Class Tigertrack!

Tigertrack is a redeco of the Siege Deluxe Class Sideswipe mold and is a homage to the color of the toy that would become Sideswipe, in the original Diaclone line. The toy comes with Red Alerts gun and and a piece from Siege Deluxe Class Six-Gun/Cromar to act as his shoulder mounted rocket launcher.

The review includes comparisons with all the other uses of the Siege Sideswipe mold so far.

We have embedded the review below for your convenience:



Have you got Tigertrack on preorder? Do you agree with the review? 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 same piece that came with Six-Gun also came with the original Sideswipe. There's really no bonus or new parts with Tigertrack except for getting Red Alert's gun.

I like the look of Tigertrack... Even more than Sunstreaker.
The bummer for me is that there isn't a Sideswipe sans battle damage... He is one of my favorite Autobots, but I don't really want either of the recent figures of him.
So Tigertrack is a bit tempting... But I'll hold off for now. But who knows. With SS86 not being released until April... Hmmmmm.

So, has anyone been charged for God Neptune? Or gotten any delay info?

Neither, although I expect the latter. Everything else from Takara has been delayed.

I thought I was being preliminarily charged for him earlier this month, but the charge disappeared and for some reason in my Pulse orders, my original order shows as cancelled with a re-order of the figure right after the cancellation, so I have no idea what's going on there.

I expect a delay, which wouldn't be too bad, but then at the normal rate of 2 month delay that would put a pretty big charge right around Christmas, which I honestly would not want.

I'd argue December 23 would be worse, still get charged before Christmas, but nothing under the tree because it takes Pulse a minimum of a week from charging to actual shipping.

With the delay, that means that Maverick, Hot House, Bug Bite, Black roritchi, SS As seen in Parks Megatron, AND God Neptune will all be released within 4 days of one another, $350 worth of bots pretty much in one go, and no paypal credit to help either.

That's an overload right around the time when Christmas shopping is at the peak

ok, so I know every TT Selects gets delayed, it's inevitable. However... This first delay is 6 weeks roughly (10/24 to 12/3), can we expect another delay? Basically I'm asking, are they incremental, or is this date goign to be pretty accurate?

I just seem to recall Super Megatron getting pushed back at least twice...but that could be faulty memory based on peoples posts since I didn't actually order one myself. Has Super megs even been released on Pulse yet? (even though it is sold out, usually they still show the estimated arrival date but I dont see any)

Super Megatron should be shipping Decemeber 1st.

Does anyone else think this will result in several cancellations? Cause it being that close to Christmas is already making me consider cancelling, especially as I wss already debating that with Super Megatron, but $300 right at the start of Decemeber is a bit too much.

That's my problem as well, especially since it's on a credit card. Why they can't allow paypal for preorders is beyond me.

I may cancel my other preorders for God Neptune, he is the one i most want from the first week of December jam

I'm sure there will be several cancellations. heck I did it last year with the previous Seacons, much to my chagrin as I paid more than double for them later. Not doing that this time, thankfully I Don't have anything else on pre-order from Pulse.

Also, while I'm not going to get political (as I myself am apolitical), some U.S. fans are probably hedging their bets on a hopefully 2nd stimulus payment before this date comes...We will see.

If I remember correctly Super Megatron was only pushed back once, but it might seem like it was twice based on posts here. I noticed about a month ago that the expected date on the Pulse Listing was pushed back to December and commented here. About a week or 2 after that, we got emails from Pulse indicating the delay, which resulted in more comments here, likely looking to someone who wasn't getting him like a second delay.

I've also cancelled a few pre-orders (including super megs) in favor of keeping God Neptune, but I was planning on him not coming out until December anyway with Pulse's entire history of Takara Selects always being 1-2 months late.

Not happening. That "SG" is what Takara calls the Siege toys. They all have ID numbers that begin with "SG-##".

Also isn't Shattered Glass Astrotrain the same colors as the Siege figure already anyways?

I'd be down for a Select Astrotrain in black and white with NASA logos and whatnots.
Meaning a black train and a shuttle in "normal colors".

For the longest time it seems TR Galvatron was one of the few molds with only one use until TT Selects Super Megatron.

It will be interesting to see if/ how Astotrain and Doubledealer are reused in the future

Huh, I noticed the cream color where my Siege Astrotrain is black and figured it had to be something different.
