This year’s Amazon exclusive theme is based around the Pre-War era of Transformers lore. Inspired by various IDW comic stories and related sources, the packs take characters and looks from before the Great War and remix them for modern figures. The first two packs are Rise of Tyranny featuring Miner Megatron and Senator Ratbat. The second set has Orion Pax and Senator Shockwave. The box art of these items will connect, and continue to connect with more that are coming down the road.
Each set is now live on Amazon and available to order. Read on to check the pics and official product copy. Hit the links below to snag your sets #ad.

So there you go. Looks like Hasbro may have ID'd the specific batch(es) that were impacted by the issue and had to cancel Pulse orders because that was the stock in their warehouse.
Or, an unfortunate possibility, Hasbro was able to ID the specific batches. But because it's an Amazon partner exclusive they had to pull the Pulse stock to honor their agreement with Amazon after the issue was discovered.
Because the only cancellations from Pulse I remember were both related to exclusives. Walmart with Velocitron (where they were cancelling stuff that even WALMART cancelled) and now this with Amazon.
None at all.

I've only had one more cancellation EVER in the 20 years I've been collecting. I've never needed it. And I can't beging to imagine how much work it would be juggling two sets of preorders for everything.

I'm sorry guys, but
Always secure a 2nd venue.

Well, you better return it and demand they send you one with that white mold on there. If they give you a hard time, tell them it's for the science!!!!!!!!

Dang. No bonus snackies….

My Amazon replacement arrived. I wanted to take a look under a microscope, but unfortunately I got a figure with no mold. Woe is me. View attachment 30100765 View attachment 30100766

Wonder if this is related to the substance on the wing people are reporting.

Saaaame, Amazon has it for now and I did the same ordering with them. Had it pre-ordered *Seven Minutes* after the hour that the preorder went live for Premium and was charged on 9/7, must have had been seriously mishandled or lost shipments to damage or something. Definitely not reassuring
C16
Yeah, same here.

Amazon still has stock, I just ordered it.

So, for the first time ever, I got an email from Pulse notifying me they had to cancel my pre-order for Nacelle because of lack of availability.
They didn’t even do that for my PR Tyrannosaurus Sentry despite it being delayed an entire year, so I’m honestly shocked. I pay for premium and try to order from them as much as possible because it seemed like the order would always be secure. They’re making me question that faith now. They’re just lucky this didn’t happen to Nova Prime or I would have been incredibly angry.

If that's your take then you read it wrong.
I wasn't telling anyone how instructions work.
Merely pointing out a step not shown on the packaging.
John Titor
And yet your comment was about telling transformers collectors how instructions work for a toy that's been released a ton of times.
IgnikaMarcus
I'm aware. I own 4 of it now. You don't need to tell me how the toy works.
I was simply pointing it out that the instructions call for the unpainted side.
Because his packaging doesn't.
John Titor
yeah, that's how this mold's worked to add differentiation between the super mode and inner bot ever since it was released as Siege Magnus.
IgnikaMarcus
Reordered Nacelle. Will have him tomorrow.
And that will mark this capsule complete!

Got my Nova from Pulse! Now just waiting for DNA to recolor their "Galaxy Upgrade Optimus " kit so I can fill those ugly gaps in the cannons

I didn't read the instructions

Right pad goes in right leg, left pad goes in left leg. There's nothing really visual that confirms the right spot, but just push it gently into place and it will soft-lock. There should be plenty of clearance to click the last together for truck mode without the pads interfering.
