Hasbro Pulsecon 2021 Discussion

Tony_Bacala · 10-22-2021, 11:39 AM

Live now, pre-orders later today, GO!

Dr Kain · 10-22-2021, 11:45 AM

Of the Power Rangers stuff, the only reveal today I must own is the In Space Blue with the hoverboard. I even canceled my two pack that is supposed to be out in Dec.

No idea what an NFT is that has been mentioned online, but it looks to just be a black and gold repaint of the dino Megazord.

Beyond that, everything else I care about from Hasbro is tomorrow.

DarthKamen · 10-22-2021, 11:47 AM

So hyped for Lunar Wolf.

But man the Star Wars panel SUCKED. Hasbro's Star Wars stuff is just getting filled with more and more repaints.

Phantomcrow · 10-22-2021, 01:21 PM

Well it has been 20 minutes and the Ravage and Pudgy Pig are still not sold out. Starting to feel like I really wasted my money renewing Premium. But I was more worried about Star Wars and Marvel than PR and TF.

lmao

I bought Premium about 4 hours ago just for Pudgy Pig. He better be worth the $108 I paid.

Although, I thought Hasbro said he was instock now and would ship immediately, but it's listed as not shipping until April. That makes no sense.

Cyclopswc · 10-22-2021, 01:27 PM

Ravage and Pudgy Pig are not hot items.

I'm not happy that we who paid Premium don't get first dip at the Star Wars (popular) stuff.

Well I did notice that none of the youtube reviewers that got a Hascon preview box had Pudgy Pig in it, so I am betting there were production issues.

Nutimus Prime · 10-22-2021, 01:53 PM

It's most likely a licensing, or Disney brand specific, issue preventing Star Wars from being offered Premium exclusivity.

I wish Hasbro would stop offering such low amounts for certain products. Two of next years Transformers Legacy figures are already sold out for preorders. They are definitely the most popular of what's been shown but it seems Hasbro reserves so little for themselves. Especially given that they have to be collecting data on us, our purchases, etc. Yes, I understand they don't want to undermine business relationships with retailers. It just seems like Hasbro has so many pieces but it's not quite there yet.

Phantomcrow · 10-22-2021, 02:06 PM

Well got my Trapper Wolf and Cantina sets, Still not sold out of Ravage or Pig, so unless the Zartan and Marvel stuff sells out tomorrow fast , that Premium is totally worthless.

Phantomcrow · 10-22-2021, 02:08 PM

Looks like the SW Cantina sold out in under 10 minutes, Wolf had not yet.

ShabbyBlue · 10-22-2021, 02:15 PM

Cantina set sold out in 7 min and Filoni sold out in 11 min. TVC Emperor is surprisingly still avaialble 15 min in so far...

Yeah- I'm used to having to be RIGHT THERE to get exclusive items when they are offered, but it shouldn't be so hard to pre-order general release stuff. I have my Premium membership, but I kind of wish they just brought back the old Hasbro Toy Shop. HTS had GREAT promo codes multiple times a year- Pulse NEVER discounts anything. Heck, you'd think they could at least give Premium members a couple of discounts each year on in-stock items. It's frustrating that the Hasbro ebay store sometimes has items cheaper than Pulse.

firmpulse · 10-22-2021, 02:35 PM

I pretty excited about space Raylan Givens and GalvaTRON. Can't wait for those.

ShabbyBlue · 10-22-2021, 02:57 PM

The Target exclusive Mando/spider set is up!

robot1point0 · 10-22-2021, 03:18 PM

Anybody know if the star wars stormtrooper 4-pack is gonna get a re-release?

emeraldnite · 10-22-2021, 04:08 PM

I managed to get a Cantina set, but I still can't believe they talked about getting more than one set to build out the bar when customers were only allowed to get 1 per order. Hoping this will get rereleased like Logan and Charles in the future.

En Sabah Nerd · 10-22-2021, 04:57 PM

Cobb Vanth being a deluxe is ludicrous, then again most of the black series deluxe releases haven't felt justified to me.

Meta · 10-22-2021, 06:18 PM

Leia lightsaber won't come up on Amazon.

Agreed. Seems like hasbro is just using bigger boxes and accessories that would be be normal for standard figs just to charge more. Hasbro really is gettin greedy. I mean i like the fig of vanth but that price is hardly justified.

And if that's the case, that's fine, but they specifically stated during the livestream that he is not a preorder.

Hasbro · 10-22-2021, 08:45 PM

So PulseCon was a bust.

The only thing I want is essentially a repack with a new thigh and to top it all off it's a wal*mart exclusive.

When did Hasbro become so boring and cheap when it comes to creating new molds for the vintage line?

MeLikeJinx · 10-22-2021, 11:29 PM

You know you are good looking when they make an action figure of you and that action figure is just as good looking. Damn you Timothy Olyphant!

1. Pulsecon is not over with yet.

2. Which line are you talking about?

Comedian · 10-23-2021, 08:43 AM

Got what I wanted. Pudgy pig, Vintage Emperor, Trapper Wolf, the rebel trooper 4-pack and the cantina set. I’m really shocked at the cantina sellout. And no I did not spend $50 on the waste of a privilege. Im Disgusted with hasbro scaring people into buying that. Then Star Wars is excluded. BS.
