Looking a bit more closely, yeah. Definitely a painted Cheetor.

Thanks, buddy.

I'm thinking 1 of 2 things must have happened. 1) they realized they are completely incompetent with pre-orders and decided not to; or 2) they are simply incompetent and forgot to.

They didn't put up Netflix Wave 3 Deluxes either.

Also I just got Ractonite, is her frill supposed to be glued in? Mine disconnected pretty easily and revealed a tab. Obviously this is how they retooled her into a Triceratops for Tricranius, but I don't think I've seen anyone mention this.

I like to think of the Fossilizers as the creations of Vertebreak. She's just making a collection of evil sisters.

Then gave Alicon a try as Drax but Lugnut is still my favorite
Tried Arcee and Blackarachnia as Gamora and on that im conflicted
If Packrat and BW Grimlock end up getting released they'll replace my Rocket and Groot

As for gender, Smashdown I guess was confirmed as female in a trading card game, none of the fossilizers have though, so I use the masculine default until there is an official source stating otherwise.

Uh, context? I see a 6 so I'm guessing the other five explain what was fixed?

Maybe the actual issue wasn't known at that time? I certainly hope they fix it, because I don't really want to go through all that.

I may have missed this, but what impact does this error have on the figure? Is the arm articulation reversed?

Basically as intended the shoulders are slightly higher, but as constructed they're slightly lower and look like they're drooping down.

EDIT: Crap, I was delayed in sending this and I got beat to the punch.

EDIT 2: Crap, wait, that was me. Why did I still have the "Write post" page open with that message if I'd already sent it?

I like the idea of a Titan Ark. But I'm gonna pass on it. The Ark does not look how I think it should. In Ark mode the big gaps where the legs are folding in are just UGLY

and the G1 Cartoon Ark has 5 thrusters not 4!

Yeah that's the general consensus. It's a big fail on the designers' part.

Well this is Kingdom Ark, which may only have 4 thrusters, we'll find out once the miniseries drops. But I agree, it should have 5 to be truly G1. I mean, the comic version had 4 thrusters, but that was also metallic silver and not yellow.

The Ark to be seen in the Kingdom episodes of the Netflix show will undoubtedly be the same Ark that we've been following across Siege and Earthrise. It would not make sense for there to be two different Arks once Kingdom starts.
