It looks fantastic.  I'm already mad at myself for not being able to throw away the packaging.

Excited for the stream today.  I had a feeling the VAMP was going to be revealed and it looks like that's going to be the case.  I'll definitely be getting it but I think I'm going to show some restraint and wait for a sale.  I'm happy to see they went mostly OG for Clutch.  The new Rock n Roll figure is amazing but strays too far from the original for me.

Not just the vamp, but there is a Ferret right behind it as well as a figure i can't recognize.

@threash it looks like a valkyire with a moto cross helmet

Tons of leaked pics over as hisstank https://news.hisstank.com/2023/10/27/hasbro-10-27-fanstream-recap-name-only-reveals-vamp-unboxing-85005

 I'm going out on a limb here and guessing it will be a Pulse exclusive.  Which means the price is gonna hurt...what are we guessing here....I'm thinking $130ish but it could easily be $150.  There's a bunch of extra swappable parts, openable hood, suspension for the wheels....it won't be cheap, lol.  There was a time I was hopeful it would be $100 but I think that's gone out the window after seeing all the features.

Man that Vamp is going to be an instant buy...  what are we expecting on price?  $90?  $75?   I would love to be optimistic that it could be lower than that... but Hasbro is gonna Hasbro

edit:  oof - was posting at the same time as Vicious and didn't see his thoughts.   $150 seems like a lot to ask for a retail toy - even if it is great looking.   I guess I'll prepare myself for the worst - because it really is pretty.

F$%^ ME FIVE WAYS FROM SUNDAY!!!!

That Vamp looks great!  (So does Clutch)

So many great little details.  I particularly like the flood lights and fold down/take out windshield.  Can't wait to watch the stream to see it "live" (not really)

Also RAPTOR and IRON GRENADIER!!!!

I'm sure the Iron Grenadier won't shy away from the classic look, but Raptor?  Can't wait to see how they do him.

Thank you Mickysee!

I was only able to watch a little before lunch ended. That thing is snazzy!

Thwipp!

@vicious7171 they confirmed in the stream that it's a Pulse exclusive. I'm betting the price will be the $100-$120 range (hopefully). Serpentor was $80 and this seems like a better value than he was.

Just saw the Vamp and Hiss packaging....waiting for single release CC news. Word on the street, is that they will take it out without the mickey thingy of course.

It being Pulse exclusive means it's also much less likely to hit any serious sales price.    If it were available at Amazon or Target I'd figure it could be had much cheaper than initial list price.   But Hasbro is pretty slow to cut prices on their site exclusives.

Anyone feel like sharing the link to the stream?  I let my Premium lapse.

@fenrys Thank you!

@mikeysee no problem

Well there is bound to be a Tiger Force version, that one might end up on clearance.
