Missed out on Pulse, but preordered two sets at Target.com.
Earthrise Voyager.
I agree, no doubt. I meant as a mainline release at all. Very wild its possible at all.
Which is based on the Classics mold tooling
I wanted purple, but I do like that blue better than ER Thundercracker.
the classics one is smaller if I am correct....that being said...surprised they are including a voyager in this set at the price point it is selling for ...Voyagers are 35 now.
Yes it is smaller. But the transformation scheme and general tooling is based on it. Hence the lack of a waist swivel
All the parts are a new bigger tooling and the transformation’s slightly different but the general idea is heavily based on the Classics Seeker mold.
Also selling toys as a multipack would allow for better pricing probably due to overall less spent on manufacturing, shipping and packaging.
Autotrooper and G2 Trooper seems kinda nice, the other two just feel 'meh' imo.
Ironhide should come with a removeable head, right?
Nothing a little good old-fashioned elbow grease can't manage to pop that sucker right off.
They didn't include a single big name character in this set to be on the safe side. It's all troop builders. It's beautiful.
it comes of as a low-effort experiment on troop builders in the TF franchise. The sort of thing that either sells well and they keep doing it or shelfwarms and they point to it as the reason why they don’t do troop builders when asked at conventions.
I wouldn't say no to the troop builders, but I'd go for the Ironhide/Prowl 2-pack.
Looks like a good start for them with the selling out on Pulse. Now to see if it does as well as the Rain Makers did at Target itself.
I ended up ordering 2 sets from Target.com. I can always cancel if I change my mind, but I will for sure want 1 set. I have a feeling the market is going to be flooded with extra Bailiffs and Seekers for a while after this comes out.
I considered pre-ordering from Target, but Target preorders are the worst. They ping your card for the full amount of the preorder every month till it ships, and for me at least it's a charge that takes a couple days to fall off.
I don't need to explain a $77 charge to my wife every month till October.
-ZacWilliam, otherwise I would absolutely lock one down.

The ebay listings I found are almost 200 bucks. I'll wait for reviews
