Yup. It's a spit-in-your-eye, kick-in-the-balls absolute bastard fucking life-changing miracle to be sure!

Anyone else here get Pulse Premium last year?
If so when, and thus when should it have expired?

I was hoping to save that for a TFN purchase. But now? Must I sling in a preorder to be sure?

Hence why I just cancelled my order as it was due for August 1st when pre-ordered. They can get bent with stuff coming out 3 months early. I have a budget

I'd treat every date from Hasbro as being unduly pessimistic at the moment. By about 3 months was the amount I'd had in mind before today and that's been backed up by Cyclonus turning up in May instead of August. I thought that date was interesting when it went up as it probably meant it was due ASAP. The Beasts were obviously wrong: they said December when they went up but Robotkingdom already had them at that point! I'm guessing the dating policy is designed to head off those who moan LOUDLY when a toy ISN'T available by the date they say. But it's bleeping off those who budget tightly and find they've needed to find cash 3 months earlier than they were told! Here's what my current Pulse pre orders look like, with the dates they give and when I think they'll be out Smyths are saying this month for the SS86 plus they're out in Hong Kong July for Blitzwing might be pessimistic - he's out in the US | Toy | Pulse | Likely Out | | Selects Cyclonus & Nightstick | May 16th | May 16th | | | Legacy Dragstrip | May 19th | May 19th | | Legacy Kickback | May 19th | May 19th | | | SS86 Sludge | August 1st | May | | SS86 Junkheap | August 1st | May | | | Legacy TFP Arcee | June 9th | June 9th | | | Shattered Glass Ultra Magnus | October 1st | July | | | Legacy Blitzwing | October 1st | July | | | Legacy Cybertron Metroplex | November 1st | August | | | Legacy Jhiaxus | November 1st | August | | | Legacy Motormaster | December 1st | September | | | Legacy Wildrider | December 1st | September | | Legacy Knockdown | December 1st | September | | Legacy Elita-1 | December 1st | September | | Legacy Tarantulus | December 1st | September |

I thought this would be my chance to finally grab a Terrorsaur, but alas he was already sold out. (Although given he's also sold out on ID, I suspect it wasn't to do with the sales.) So I picked up SS BB Soundwave and Kingdom Waspinator finally - I'd been waiting for a sale for both of those, and... ta-da! Unfortunately that didn't get me over the £60 for the discounts, so I *nearly* got that Buzzworthy Bumblebee with Daniel, but then the Conjunx told me she wanted a Legend Shang-Chi, so that was used as ballast instead. (I didn't mind - with Netflix, Origins and SS Cybertron mode B-127 I'm good for Bumblebess right now.)

A shame general punters get a 40% sale when Premium members got an extra 5% off a less generous sale the other month.

Yup!
I feel for Pulse Customer Service staff. 4-day weekend combined with a huge sale (even allowing for Pulse higher prices, 40% off items and free shipping would ream any site). I would not be surprised if they've never been so busy.

Ah right. Ok. Hopefully the rest turns up in due course. I was just puzzled as usually retailers just...send all of an order out at the same time when all of it was in stock when the order was made. Ech.
The two items that did arrive today could have fitted in one box but were in two. Hasbro must really hate trees.

We are currently on three deliveries comprising five boxes for one order. The carbon footprint on this do not look good and the trees weep that so many of them had to die for it.
This is mad!
