From Amazon.ca, Canadians are already receiving their Golden Disk Jackpot. I got mine as well so I can provide you with this pictures review.
The packaging come in a brown shipping box. The box itself is in full colors, but is very thin. The tray and tie-wraps binding the toys are all cardboard. Zero plastics. All that paper and cardboard except for the instructions will find themselves in the recycling bin.
As stated in the previous news report, This version of Jackpot have a new headsculpt but factory gremlins has missaligned the head parts so it appear a bit wonky. On mine, only the top of the head is affected. Not a big deal in my opinion. I'll just say he got bonked.
Jackpot is a repaint/retool of the Studio Series 86 Jazz. The colors are so different and with that still nice new head makes Jackpot worth owning even if you already have SS86 Jazz.
Jackpot come with the same gun as SS86 Jazz, but Hasbro didn't forgot his partner, Sights. Sights is a straight repaint of Siege Pteraxadon. Here, it works perfectly.
Let's not forget comparing the newer Kingdom Jackpot to the original Action Masters from G1!
Contrary to the Action Masters original, this is the very first time Jackpot can transform! And redecoing SS86 Jazz was the right call because that's the perfect altmode. Matching yellows is always very hard to do and here, it's no exception. However, the only yellow that dont match are on the front of the car and it's just a tiny part. Depending on how you see things, this may look even better than just a plain uniform line. Transformation was also easy like the SS86 original and at no times I was afraid that something may break due to all that clear plastics. The car is a beauty.
Overall, Golden Disk Jackpot is pretty awesome and it's amazing that it's no more expensive than a regular deluxe despite coming with a bonus Battlemaster. I highly recommend that you get yours while it's still in stock.

At first the glamour shots on their site made this look really good, but all these in hand photos make it out to be less so and they couldn't even paint the yellow hubcap black to match. Way too many yellow variations in alt mode. Overall a neat looking figure but nothing I have to have. If I was into customizing TF's I definitely pop a different head onto it.

Man, that head misalignment is inexcusable, that's basic quality control, it's the character's face, not some confusing shoulder piece, wrong tone paint or a precise tolerance on a joint. I always give some leeway when it comes QC because I know it's hard, but this is just sloppy. It's the figure's main feature. They should do a partial refund on those...

First, godammit typos with a word that shouldn't have been there to begin with.
Second, do far we never got any Select SS figures. As if they are not part of Generations. That's why I put "Generations" in quotation marks.

I got an early shipping notice for Terrorsaur from Hasbro Pulse today, he's coming in January now instead of March, so that'll be a nice early birthday present. I also got an early shipping notice for a Doctor Strange action figure I definitely did NOT order, so that's something I'll have to chase up.

This Studio Series mold isn't of a design that's owned by Paramount, though. Therein lies the difference.-Kanrabat- wrote:Sabrblade wrote:Studio Series is part of Generations.-Kanrabat- wrote:I adore my Jackpot.

So, now my Scorponok is 'complete'. Amazing what a little height can do.
Also, I recently acquired a semi-holy Grail - Misfire! I basically got him for 40 bucks. He is not a floppy mess, unlike Fangry.

So yes, we absolutely could get a second Selects Ricochet out of this mold, if Hasbro felt so inclined to do so a second time.-Kanrabat- wrote:Sabrblade wrote:This Studio Series mold isn't of a design that's owned by Paramount, though.

The only thing that irks me about The Ark is that the gun turrets don't move. Considering he has no weaponry in robot mode, having at least the arm guns able to point forward would be a problem solver. Was it really that important to the budget to have them fixed in place?

It feels weird having a Transformer that's bigger than Combiner Wars Devastator after six years of him being the centre piece of my collection, but I'm happy that I bought the Ark. Mainframe is neat too, he fits in with the rest of the Autobot cast surprisingly well.
Glad you like the set. I love the Ark, I named him Iaconus and he is my 2nd favorite titan so far. Mainframe is really neat too. They did a great job with that whole package

Jackpot's screwed up head brought back to mind that Terrorsaur seems to be coming with the wrong disk. The listings mention the Voyager disk, the disk in the promotional bios is the Voyager disk, the disk depicted in the background graphics of the promotional bios is the Voyager disk, and the boxart that Hasbro is trying to entice customers to "collect and complete" depicts the Voyager disk too.
However, all promo shots of Terrorsaur and the 360 video show him with the Vok disk. It'd be very stupid and sort of funny if Terrorsaur ended up shipping with that disk instead, given how they built the whole identity of the set around the Voyager one.

I think Terrorsaur is the only one that comes with a Golden Disc accessory. It is the same as one of the (2) that came with the Ark.
My contention is on the back both say "sounds of Earth". So basically we only get one side of the Vok with the Ark. The differing symbols on the other side aren't present at all.

Looks like that head is something everyone have and will have. Better deal with it! Or buy the "upgrade kit" when it's available.

Got Tracks because 22$CAN Black Friday sale. I was expecting the worst toy ever.
Know what?
Sure, the legs are indeed on the loose side, but he's still stable and posable. The backpack is reasonable. The transformation is a tad fiddly but not annoying. The vehicle is beautiful and hold itself well.
I wouldn't had gotten him at full price. But at the sale price? Money well spent.
I was surprised!

I got Rodimus Prime yesterday, Smyths Toys had him on discount at only £69, down from £93. I've barely touched the trailer, but the robot is very nice. He looks good next to my other 1986 Autobots, and just by looking at him he looks taller than Earthrise Optimus, but is actually an inch or so shorter. I'm not keen on the transformation though, it's complicated but not in a satisfying way, more of a "Oh crap am I going to break it?" kind of way. Plus there are elements of the transformation that seem a bit pointless, like part of the wheels on his shoulders unclipping, moving forward a bit and then clipping into a peg hole next to the wheel. I don't understand why that has to be there. While I do like Rodimus just fine, I stand by my belief that he should've been a Leader instead of a Commander, a little bit smaller and with fewer bells and whistles, it could've worked just fine.

Problem was limited leader slots, and he would have been adversely impacted by the budget cut from Commander to leader.

Now that I finally had the chance to get and transform Waspinator, I wonder what you guys did wrong. I transformed mine without instructions and his bug mode tab itself solidly EVERYWHERE and is rock solid.
The bug chest is a wee bit too thick due to the bot feet, but that's his only real flaw.

I was tempted to a buy a second one just to have a spare. I didn't, but I might actually regret that later, it's that good.
Same, everything tabs together fine in both modes.
My only issue is that one of the sets of bug legs on his lower bot legs is too stiff to turn out of the way.

I ordered from Amazon and haven't gotten any kind of order update, but we know how things are right now, early and late releases are pretty much the way things are right now.

By the way, if anyone thought Rodimus should sell closer to a leader, than a commander, well that's the price he is on Amazon right now, so its your chance to own it.

My Tigatron finally shipped! I have a feeling he'll definitely be on my favorites list.

Mine arrived Saturday. He feel really solid in hand, like Primal does. He is really nice.

Just curious who is shipping him...Pulse, Amazon? I have yet to purchase a single Beast in Kingdom, but much like Kingdom Galvatron (a toy I did not intend to buy), if I se Tigatron in store I may just get it as he was my favorite S1 character. Apparently he has started showing up in Canada, hopefully the U.S. wont be too far behind.

It's funny. For the 2021 Hall of Fame's Toy of the Year category, the winner was a toy that Hasbro never formally announced and which most people don't actually own yet.

It's even funnier that the one it should be is 56 bucks on Amazon.

I like to think that this was the fandom trolling the brand team. Fans chose a figure that had been out at retail for a while and a lot of people owned, but still hadn't been announced by Hasbro, to effectively bait them into acknowledging it and send a message about how poorly handled product reveals have become. That probably isn't the case but it would certainly be funny.

That was 100% the case. Very few owned Tigatron at the time of the hall of fame.
