Buzzer and Hawk both release today so it's a coin flip! Though surprised you weren't charged for both

Got shipping notifications for Shockwave, Buzzer and Helix. Nothing for Hawk or Ripper yet.

Same here.

Can someone please confirm if the female blue ninja head (not the fox one) fits on the snake eyes movie Akiko body. Maybe post a pict if possible? Thanks.

I got a shipping notice for Helix only (Hawk and Ripper in the same order)

This year can't end soon enough.


The decision to push a year's worth of production into 6 months, rather than push it out a year, was probably the right call. And yes complaining about too much product is kind of silly. However I am stretched way too thin right now and I am focusing on Classified mostly so they get my money. However I am still waiting to get Desert SE, Low Light, Fire Team 788, and now this wave is starting to hit.



That doesn't even account for things I have missed like Chuckles, or stuff I am still waiting to pick up on sale (the last SE & Timber repaints). Also who knows when the latest PP stuff will hit.



Let's also not go into what I have already spent on Classified in just the past few months.




That's enough Hasbro. Take a breather.....please! My wallet can't take it anymore.

Not Classified, just Joe related.


There is a leaked list out circulating right now about a couple of TF items and one of them is the next Joe/TF crossover.


As was speculated before the list says that the next Joe/TF crossover will be the Triple T. However my guess of Grimlock was off. According to the list the Triple T will be the alt mode of KUP!!?? I guess that kind of makes sense to some degree, but I really thought they would go with a top tier character (Grimlock) or even second tier like Ironhide. Kup is a popular enough character, but I wouldn't have put him in the top 5 choices of who I would pair with the Triple T. Either way I guess it doesn't really matter too much as the alt mode is more important to me than the robot character (for this line).


They are also continuing with having two figures in the package. Sgt. Slaughter (of course) and Leatherneck will be included according to the listing.



As I said this is a leaked list right now, but I think it seems pretty solid so let's see if we get any news during the upcoming TF livestream (Nov. 14th).


For me personally this is another homerun. Of course I am biased as I love this line, even though it is expensive. The Tripe T and Sgt. Slaughter are favourites of mine. I have 3 Triple Ts already, but only one is complete and all of them are damaged to some degree, mostly in the substructure where the wheels are located. Also I don't have a Sgt. Slaughter anymore (O-ring) so this will pair nicely. Leatherneck, much like Zarana with the Thunder Machine is a nice surprise add-in, but at least it makes some sense since he is seen riding on the Triple T in the original packaging art.

They did the same type of thing last year.

By the frontpage count plus Flight Pod, Snowjob, maybe Chuckles, like 24 plus items in the last two months, and I likely missed a few.

Fortunately for me, I only want like half - and figures Hasbro doesn't want me to have (Anything Pulse Exclusive) I don't pick up quick, if at all.

Kup is a bit of an odd choice but so was Bumblebee with the AWE Striker. The colors don't match up but they made it work pretty well with the Bumble/Striker. I like that it also comes with Leatherneck. Hopefully these colabs will include 2 figures each time going forward. I wonder if we'll see what it looks like during the Transformers live stream on Tuesday?
