Oh yeah, it does say February right there. In my defense, I was in a rush to pre-order at the time so I didn't read the whole thing
It's all good. Will you cancel your preorders if you find them in stores first?
Hot Rod and Jazz are bought on sight if I find them, maybe Grimlock depending on if it is a payday weekend or not. Scourge is mainly to go with Cyclonus so I may keep that pre-order, not in a rush to get him like the others.

Interesting. By contrast, Scourge is the one that interests me most since he is the only toy of the bunch that doesn't have a decent figure out there scale wise.

I was never a fan of the space barge design his alt-mode has going on. But every picture I've seen of SS86 Scourge has looked really good, both bot and alt-mode, so I definitely want him.

Also the newly updated movie shelves showing how nicely all the SS bots and cons come together

Target at Spectrum Mall in Phoenix had a single SS86 Jazz and a single SS86 Blurr along with some WfC Micromasters and various Cyberverse figures. When I first hit the aisle, I could see the TF section, and it looked bare, but once I got closer, I saw the two remaining Studio Series figures. I picked up Jazz for myself and left Blurr for another lucky individual. I might hit another Target tomorrow in the hopes of finding Hot Rod.
aronjlove wrote:Jazz is pretty cool. You can flip the door panels out to give him small wings, similar but not as pronounced as the G1 look. The transformation is like a cross between WFC and Studio Series, as the entire top of the car is a backpack, but it folds up pretty nicely. Standing next to ER Wheeljack and TR Hot Rod, we can see TR Hot Rod is a little tall, but that should be rectified by SS86 Hot Rod once I find him. Then in alt-mode next to a couple of other racing cars from WFC, you can tell he looks like he definitely belongs. In the middle photo, I have his backpack mistransformed, the panel which becomes the back window tucks under the roof to fold away, but I was uncomfortable applying pressure to that hinge until I watched a video on youtube. This totally blows away PotP Jazz, and if they make a Ricochet Selects for this, I will buy it in a heartbeat. The PotP guys are betting combiner limbs than figures, in my opinion anyway. This new mold is fun to transform and looks just like a Porsche, even though it is unlicensed.

yeah I figured the 86 was apart of the line name, thus making it a subline of SS and giving them their own numbers. So when Studio Series is counted, only the actual Bayverse figures should be considered, if we're talking about the animated movie figures they are Studio Series 86.Emerje wrote:Sabrblade wrote:It's interesting that Takara is giving all of the SS86 toys their own proper Studio Series ID numbers instead of just 86 for each of them.
They do have their own numbers, Hasbro just made it smaller next to the 86.
Yeah, they aren't in line with the rest of SS, but I think Hasbro's way is better for separating the two styles, especially for the movie purists.
