Greetings Seibertronians!

Prime VS Prime has just posted his video review of the highly anticipated Legacy Select Black Zarak.

Black Zarak is a repaint/remold of the Earthrise Titan Class Scorponok. Black Zarak comes from the Japanese G1 continuity, introduced in Transformers Super God Masterforce. He was the ultimate foe that God Ginrai had to fight against.

Appart that obvious black, red, and gold color scheme, this version have the head component almost completely remolded for the new character. He also come with a brand new spear weapon that can separate in multiple components. And contrary to the original, super rare, and super expensive G1 original, this new Zarak wont disintegrate due to the dreaded Gold Plastics Syndrome.

You can watch the video review below:

Scorponok for comparison, but he have the DNA Designs upgrade kit equipped.

So what do you think of this release? Did you had Black Zarak on preorder since months ago? Are you planning to get him? Or is that an easy skip?

Pre ordered day one, and it looks great! Can't wait, my Titan shelf has been waiting for this.

Me too!
It's also one of the reason I cancelled my ER Scorpy preorder. The second being having the OG G1 Scorpy and to never, ever being able to buy and enjoy G1 Zarak. So that titan is a blessing. Black Rorichi called it, despite the naysayers.

Just a few more weeks to wait, if distribution doesn't screw up. :PRAY:

So uh, anyone gonna talk about this flap here?

Is it meant to be a visor or just some panel to cover his chin in alt mode?

Just a face cover when not in head mode.

Speaking of panels, PvP complained that there's no extra panels to cover the crotch area for the scorpion mode.

I don't agree at all. I find this head absolutely PERFECT for the scorpion mode. The crotch area of the deluxe headmaster with the pins gives the scorpion an extra pair of shiny eyes plus a sinister mouth that is wide open, ready to swallow whole some unfortunate fools. 8-)

I'm looking forward to Black Zarak, whenever it comes. It's going to be a very financially unstable time when he does!

I agree with it looking like a mouth, but no the pins as eyes. However if someone were to add googly eyes ... :WHISTLE:

How much power do you have in the community to get Reprolabels to make a range of stickers, just for THAT area/use, Burn?

They're googly eyes, you can buy them easily enough, no need for Toyhax.

It appears as though Artfire & Nightstick have been found at a GameStop in Russellville Arkansas U.S.A. by TFW2005 board member iacon45

As a result I went to my closest GameStop last night, while there were no Artfire's, I did find it odd that they had one of the Galactic Odyssey Micromaster set.

Apparently the Artfire's have been shipping for those who pre-ordered on GameStop website a while back (now sold out). The employee in store just told me to keep checking back in the coming days.

If I can get one in store before my Pulse Preorder ships (January), then I will, if not, then I'll wait. I don't think I'll be able to find a better deal online at any retailer to get this single item shipped to me for $35 or less.

I have several GameStops in my immediate area, including one just down the street. Not sure if they all carry toys, or just video games....

We have our first sighting for Generations Selects Artfire and Nighstick in the US. This set was found at a Gamestop in Russellville, Arkansas for $34.99. It comes with Artfire, a redeco of Kingdom Voyager Inferno, and his Targetmaster partner Nightstick, a redeco of Siege Singe. This toy was/is not an exclusive and could have been preordered from a multitude of places. With this toy now being found in stores, it is bound to come in stock at whichever retailer you preordered from. Gamestop has been stepping up it's game lately with toys found at brick and mortar. Like that Universal Studios Studio Series Megatron that was found a little while ago.

The image of the sighting was posted on TFW2005 boards by iacon45.

Mine arrived yesterday from an Entertainment Earth preorder. Not much to say about it, it's a repaint. If you got Inferno you know what to expect.

EE's shipping boxes though, let me tell you, those are some absolute cringe. "Who's ready for an unboxing?" plastered on the side makes me suddenly not want to unbox anything, rather, it makes me question some of my life choices.

Although most toy distributors have their name on the package, there is something to be said for plain brown boxes vs "hey something cool is inside you definitely want to steal"

That's how I feel about Amazon using tape that says "Prime Day!" all over it for Prime Day packages, there's more likely to be something expensive in there. Just glad I live on a private road and don't have to worry about porch pirates. Hasbro Pulse boxes annoy me a little, too, not everyone needs to know I'm buying toys.

Thanks to Scotty I'm now having some regrets choosing to order MP Thundercracker from EE.

There was a time when it was only those getting "adult reading material" delivered would want unassuming packaging... now its us adults purchasing toys :lol:
