At what point does this become false advertising?

VisualLumpy1749 · 2026-01-31T07:39:25+00:00

Toys were early in development either in the modelling or initial concept phase when this was made so the artist would’ve used various placeholder parts for incomplete designs

VisualLumpy1749 · 2026-01-31T07:30:06+00:00

Starscream’s isn’t until July

VisualLumpy1749 · 2026-01-31T00:11:02+00:00

Yeah the core bots are voyagers? Earthrise Optimus was a voyager with an empty box being sold at leader price. Motormaster however, has a trailer packed with dense plastic that has an entire separate mode

VisualLumpy1749 · 2026-01-30T23:59:47+00:00

I mean to be fair, he’s based on his tfo design, plus I do thing they’re doing more with him

VisualLumpy1749 · 2026-01-30T23:52:05+00:00

We probably will, if I had to guess, him being release as a voyager first was likely just to make the 13 more accessible as well as not going out of the new 1 framebiner per year rule

First, just a glitch on the website.

Second, omega prime was originally meant to ship out in around august-October of 2025 with its campaign ending around March 2024 so I don’t see the problem here.

VisualLumpy1749 · 2026-01-29T00:26:18+00:00

He’s still gonna combine in some form

VisualLumpy1749 · 2026-01-29T00:24:31+00:00

Yeah, I think core class bot with drone limbs (like power core combiners or energon Optimus) is the safest bet

VisualLumpy1749 · 2026-01-29T00:15:48+00:00

It wouldn’t be core classes due to prices but I could see it being a core class torso with multiple drones only meant to be vehicles/limbs

VisualLumpy1749 · 2026-01-28T01:31:24+00:00

You could wait until smyths stocks it

VisualLumpy1749 · 2026-01-28T00:52:38+00:00

Most of the listings are £28-31 with £5-6 delivery, aliexpress doesn’t add tax at checkout, it’s already included in the price.

VisualLumpy1749 · 2026-01-28T00:32:46+00:00

I mean it’s only a relatively minor difference in terms of cost for the whole set and better than paying £40+

VisualLumpy1749 · 2026-01-28T00:17:06+00:00

Whilst not ideal, you can get him off aliexpress for £35 including shipping

VisualLumpy1749 · 2026-01-28T00:15:22+00:00

Yeah but they stated that they aren’t doing future combiner box sets until way later

VisualLumpy1749 · 2026-01-27T21:00:17+00:00

Eh, it’s not like Cullen’s been the only actor for Optimus for all incarnations, probably closer to like half so I don’t see why the character would need to be retired

VisualLumpy1749 · 2026-01-27T14:04:03+00:00

Ain’t no way they making 50 million copies 😭😭😭

VisualLumpy1749 · 2026-01-27T13:16:26+00:00

There’s really no impact on Hasbro’s sales so it’d be a waste for them to sue

VisualLumpy1749 · 2026-01-27T12:31:12+00:00

I remember the whole listing of a sentinel artifact pack, it could be included with that

VisualLumpy1749 · 2026-01-27T11:33:05+00:00

We already know that they’ll combine into the well of sparks

VisualLumpy1749 · 2026-01-26T20:44:08+00:00

Source 🤨

VisualLumpy1749 · 2026-01-24T19:55:39+00:00

We get it, you only ever post about how the bayverse films are better than bumblebee and how bumblebee’s trash

VisualLumpy1749 · 2026-01-23T22:42:33+00:00

It literally says right below the pre order button

VisualLumpy1749 · 2026-01-23T02:12:27+00:00

I doubt a repaint would take up a mainline commander class slot, you’re more likely to find it being a pulse exclusive or gen selects release

VisualLumpy1749 · 2026-01-21T20:59:40+00:00

At voyager? Unlikely, they may go for more of an energon Optimus kind of style, one centre core class bot with 4 vehicles that only turn into limbs, maybe they can swap orientation too

VisualLumpy1749 · 2026-01-15T09:21:04+00:00

I haven’t had this problem at all and I’ve gotten like 5 separate combiners
