If the reader’s mind immediately goes to a lewd interpretation of a single word in the context of a forum post about a toy robot’s colors, that sounds like their problem, not mine.

That’s like, Beavis and Butthead level of discourse.

Technically, it was two or three words, and in the Cheesecake thread of all places. I would suspect the odd inferred or implied double entendre would be par for the course?

And us Brits have a character of our own, prior to those two chaps, that dealt with the whole subject:

Edited to acknowledge this isn't, in fact, the Cheesecake Thread...

Got a question in Jhiaxus:
I've seen him at retail several times, but I upped and ordered him via the Amazon coupon (which made Iguanus, basically, free). Came in today and...it looks...off. I know his chest and face are painted so it wasn't going to match the molded in yellow parts, but mine seems REALLY green.
It's less obvious in the pic, but in "natural eye viewing", it's a pronounced puke green tint.

So, did I get a wonky one, or have others gotten one like this?

Edit: Turns out I have a crap light in my room. I went to other parts of my house and he is appropriately yellow. Just a weird visual trick with the lighting and the type of paint they used here.

The colors will tend to be off on the smokey gray clear plastic parts because light still partially shines through. Kind of like ER Sunstreaker but not quite as bad.

I just got notice that Legacy Voyager wave 3 (Armada Starscream and Inferno) are preparing to ship from Hasbro Pulse.

My Crankcase, Pointblank, and Skullgrin are shipping soon too, along with TM2 Megatron and the Voyagers. Had to cancel my Galaxy Shuttle preorder since I won't have room in my budget because of things shipping early...

I've also gotten word that TM2 Megatron and Armada Starscream will be shipping from Hasbro Pulse, and word from BBTS that they're expecting Inferno soon. No word yet on the Deluxes, but we'll see.

I haven't received any emails yet regarding wave 3 stuff. My SS86 Ironhide should be here in a few days though.

BBTS is starting to ship those for sure; I have SS86 Ironhide, Dragon Megs, Deadend, Pointblank, and BW Inferno in my POL.
Odd that Skullgrin hasn't come in yet. It's like they are getting partial case assortments.

Hasbro offers most of its collector-oriented products as single case items. More than likely, BBTS just hasn’t gotten their single cases of Skullgrin yet, or were prioritizing the “full set” orders before filling the partial wave orders.

Inferno's waiting in my PoL on BBTS. Here's hoping something else hits my PoL soon.

As for Pulse, I've also gotten notification that the Deluxes are likely to ship soon.

As I mentioned I've got 1 Inferno in my POL, but the second one I ordered a few days after hasn't dropped yet. Seems they really do prioritize by order date.
Steevy - any evidence to back up the solid case thing? I only question it because that was never the case previously, no pun intended. BBTS was always beholden to case assortments hence why shortpacked stuff sold out quick and typical peg warmers remained. We did hear reports of Cosmos shipping in full cases overseas, but he's an exclusive.

Internationally all the collectors lines ship as solid cases now, at least to specialist retailers.
