Transformers Focused Fan First Friday This Week- Star Saber Strongly Hinted At

Maybe release Kingdom Wave 4 this time just a thought.

I still feel it is not the best use of Haslab to put Star Saber there. he really wouldn't need anything more then a commander class figure. Sure, he's big with 3 robots over all, but they are super simple transformations. Maybe if it's the full Victory Leo set. But there are bigger more complex transformers from victory that could do well there, like Lio Kaiser. And what about Deathsaurus? Guess we will see.

What I'm expecting: Star Saber, half an hour of babbling about how great Japanese G1 is, and in the final few seconds another reminder that the Shattered Glass line is a thing.

Agree with all of this wholeheartedly

I also think this will be what will happen. I am certain we won't get a mention of the Golden Disk line, but wave 4 kingdom might be a thing, just maybe.

Victory Saber makes sense as a HasLab project. Hopefully it blows way past its backing and Hasbro decides to release a whole line-up of Transformers from the Victory series.

Don't get your (or anyone else's) hopes up.
Hope is undiscovered disappointment.

Hope for just Star Saber and everything else with be a bonus.

I totaly understand that, and I agree, any more would be a bonus.

However, The least expensive Haslab to date is the Hero Quest game, and I think that was $150?? I would be a bit puzzled if it was *just* Star Saber for say...$100.00, any more, then YES you start to get into the argument that the MP toy is superfluous. But again, we shall see.

Also, something I just saw on Pulse makes me a bit nervous, looks like a Star Wars Haslab Rancor is coming soon as well. I hope they don't offer it, and the TF:Victory one at the same time

They announced they Rancor project a day or two after the Galactus project whent live. Hopefully that means that whatever they announce for Victory won't launch until after the Rancor project. Not that having all three franchises have Haslab projects running back to back is a good thing either. They all potentially take backers from away from each other, depending on how much cross collecting there actually is.

We already know the rest of Kingdom's regular releases, no chance of either of them there. However, you did just make me think of something. Haslab Unicron was timed to come out when the TFTM movie anniversary was due and the SS86 line was coming out, meaning there were toys to go along with the Haslab offering.

Granted there isn't a mandatory celebrate the movie anniversary every 5 years thing attached to Victory, but I do wonder if there will be some other regular releases in the next line to match up with whatever Haslab ends up including.

Perceptor is still available. I can still order cases from multiple distributors for the Seibertron store and it is currently available from a couple of our sponsors that I just checked.

What World's Collide mess are you referring to? The set just came out a couple of weeks ago. Just saw one at my Target today. If it's sold out in your area, just wait a few months and your store should get its restock. Or set a tab in your browser to open up Target's page for that item so you can see when it's in stock at your local stores or when it's available online to ship (if you haven't already done this). Just a couple of suggestions. If you missed it the first time around, I'm sure you'll get another chance to get this set again. There's no way a set with 3 or 4 remolds is an extremely limited set.
