Thinking about preorder panic vs wait for sales, looking at Pulse this morning it seems to be mostly the Star Wars stuff that is selling out. The only recent Transformers item that has is Nova Prime (annoyingly).

Isn't 'dropped' just a metaphor for a record player needle dropping? If so , I'd say its not too bad. Using it for pre-orders and in-stock is confusing, I agree.

Swoop bombed Megatron with Dinobot droppings in Robo Capers.

Drop sounds weird when you say it a lot. Drop. Drop. Let’s try using drip instead and see how that sounds. Martin |

I think in this context it comes more from the use of the word for delivering/releasing something of value - as in 'I'll make the drop at locker 15, be there at midnight.' |

Pulse have somehow sent me a Classified Snake Eyes and Timber out of nowhere. No order, no dispatch notice, no charge. Do I do the decent thing and tell them?

Is it the superior version 2 set in the plastic-free packaging?

Me too, it's great, innit?
One for Toy-Fu, perhaps?

Guess who was invoiced for next year's Pulse Premium today? Please tell me you didn't pony up again. It's money for nothing! That is £40 you could use on toys instead! There is a tried and tested method to get the free postage! -Ralph |

Argh!
I had assumed it had become Unobtainable so used my Red Frenzy money for a takeaway instead. It was a nice takeaway!
Another time.

I am weak and bought the Alpha Trion/Orion Pax set. I have little to no interest in them. Oops.
First time I've bought something for the sake of buying in a long old time.

It's a good price and it's a great set, have no concerns. You have VECTOR SIGMA!

They've got the other two 2 packs too I admit I did buy the one with Cobra Commander in too as he'll look cool with the troopers standing by Megatron, so Duke can go with Bumblebee (and silly cheap? £18 instead of £48?!), but I'm not into Joe enough to want the ninja set. Pennies needed elsewhere. |
