HasbroPulse Ecto1 shipping to Toronto. $40usd. Plus $5usd taxes.
$80+ altogether. NOPE

[Pascal]

86 usd shipped... lol

[BludChylde]

Ecto1 looks cool, but not cool enough to pay that much in shipping.

[theoneyouknowleast]

I use https://www.crossborderpickups.ca/ to bring it across the border and get free US shipping.

[Yonoid]

previous thread he posted details on using a cross border shipping option, I'll probably just wait for it to land in stores here.

[Msol]

2 ordered to my US mailbox near Vancouver.

Those prices for Ironhide and Chromia are amazing, too. $10 USD shipped (to the US).

[wervenom]

Yeah I checked to see what 2 is shipped and was $130 USD total. I like it but not that much

[Pascal]

But will it available at retail or is it their own store exclusive?

[TRUCKvsGUN]

Very interested in Ecto-1, but I'll personally avoid ordering most bots from HTS because I've had some bad luck with QC on siege figs and have had to make a couple xchanges already.

[Supernova]

But will it available at retail or is it their own store exclusive?

No worries, it's coming to EB Games.

How do you know that? Confirmation or gut feeling?

[Janitor]

^mentioned at the end of the article.
You’ll have to wait until early June to add this $40 piece to your collection when it will be exclusively available in-store at GameStop. But you can get it online too, with pre-orders starting today at GameStop’s site (http://www.gamestop.com/Catalog/ProductDetails.Aspx?Sku=189035), HasbroPulse.com (https://hasbropulse.com/products/transformers-generations-transformers-collaborative-ghostbusters-mash-up-ecto-1-ectotron-figure), and EB Games Canada.

I hit up the EB site and no PO yet, though I imagine it'll show up on this page: https://www.ebgames.ca/toyfair

[Grayfox]

All I'm seeing are full price deluxes on there.
I imagine I missed that sale again?

86 usd shipped... lol

It's pricey, but how much to buy it at Canadian EB games?
I'm sure he'll be around 60 plus tax. So around $70 total.

Better than 86, but still very pricy.

[theoneyouknowleast]

Gamestop had it for 49.99 usd so 10 more then hasbro.

My guess would be 69.99 for ebgames.

[MilanX3]

I use https://www.crossborderpickups.ca/ to bring it across the border and get free US shipping.

Do they deliver to Canada Post or you have to pick up the order near the border?

[neevnav]

Hasbro Pulse shipping is crazy. $50 USD to ship leader Megs and Jetfire. Amazon US is $12 CAD. I would love to support this concept but they've gotta figure out the shipping

[QuadESL63]

I use https://www.crossborderpickups.ca/ to bring it across the border and get free US shipping.

Thanks for the tips! Just open an account at crossborderpickups and purchased the G2 Megatron and preirdered Siege Jetfire (I know I will get it anyway will save some gas hunting lol) for US free shipping before pickup fees. Will see how it goes.

[QuadESL63]

Strange! Hasbro Pulse cancelled my order using the cross border pickup service. Reordered and it still happened. I then ordered the G2 Meg and Siege Jetfire seperately and the G2 Meg order is still fine but the Jetfire preorder has been cancelled again...

EDIT: I ended up calling them today, they actually didn’t cancelled my orders... their explanation is since Jetfire is a preorder they internally created a new preorder placeholder for me and my original order appeared to be cancelled on web. That’s why I have never recieved cancellation email. I ended up with duplicated orders because I reordered the same things... luckily they apologized and agreed to removed those duplicates for me and this time I got cancellation emails.

So sorry I just learned about Hasbro pulse. So for canadians shipping to Canada its not worth it?

Shipping from US Hasbro Pulse to Canada directly doesn’t worth it - it is quite costly. But shipping to a US address is free (Hasbro Pulse upgraded me to the premium account for free), so I ended up using a cross border service and pay for the service charge + sale tax on the items which makes it ok.

How do you get premium account? I used to shop alot there too, but haven't in a while due to low canadian dollars. It will help if they provide free shipping with a US address.

I preordered the Siege “G2 Hero” Megatron when Hasbro Pulse just started back in Feb. before the 14th or so, and they upgraded my account to premium for 2019. All my orders to my US address have free shipping.

[joshimus]

I've had my Ectobot on preorder from Eb Games for awhile now. Dont bother with Hasbro Pulse.

I have ordered from them many times, and they never upgrade my account :banghead:

Although Canadian dollar is low right now, I still shop with them. Hasbro Pulse is way more convenient comparing to any retailers in Canada... it seems like none of the big retailers in Canada have stuff anymore. I don't even remember when was the last time I shop at Toys R Us, Toys R Us just ain't ToysRUs we used to know anymore.

[QuadESL63]

On another note, Hasbro Pulse has the MP Blackarachnia preorder up:

https://hasbropulse.com/collections/transformers/products/takara-tomy-transformers-mp-46-blackwidow-beast-wars

The price is not great but if you have a US address and is their Premium member with free shipping it makes this an ok deal.

Super cool better looking than I thought.

AE 10500 Yen 128.234 CDN + shipping (15- 20 dollars based on my experience) = 148 dollars...

[chaingunsofdoom]

Ordered MP46 from Amazon JP. C$150 and a few pennies all-in at today's exchange rate.

[predahank]

I wonder if pulse will be selling mp/10 ghostbusters

[MilanX3]

Hello guys,

Has anyone ordered from Hasbro Pulse to Canada recently without using an import service.

It looks like they used FedEx ground economy. It uses flat fees up to 30$US it seems. Do they charge any added fees or brokerage or other added charges?

Has anyone ordered many PreOrders from them that arrive at different times? Do they charge you shipping for each set of items that come in or keep all items until the order is completely filled and ship everything out together?

Thanks!

[UsernamePrime]

https://hasbropulse.com/pages/shipping-return-policy


everything you need to know

[MilanX3]

Thanks,

Anyone order from them recently having their items shipped to Canada?

So now they use FedEx Ground shipping to Canada...has anyone used Hasbro Pulse with this shipping method...what fees were you charged besides the initial tax when checking out?

Were there brokerage fees or any added costs applied?

Thanks!

I did. Having seen their more reasonable Canadian shipping fees I ordered 2 Seacons (main body + 1 limb) in April. Shipping to Toronto is $26.99US plus HST. No hidden charge. If I went through a US to Canada mail forwarding service the total cost is more of less the same (I do have free continental US shipping as a Premium member but I would need to pay for NY State tax, cross border service fees and HST for the item).

[Mishap]

The tax is collected at purchase, and it's the same courier on both sides of the border, so there's no extra tax or fees after you check out.

One thing to watch though... once the item is sent out, you can't redirect it, not even to a FedEx pickup point. The FedEx website says the shipper (Hasbro Pulse) doesn't allow it. Generally, if it looks like a shipment will show up on a workday, I will have it sent to the post office or a courier pickup point. Can't do that with Pulse.

[MilanX3]

So no brokerage fees after the fact, and a $20-$30 all in shipping fees isnt bad. Dod you guys order over 200$ or so, wondering if new fees kick in after the fact?

And you paid the Taxes on checkout and that was that? Taxes are taxes, but would have to pay them in Can and Prov in any case.

So no odd problems or experiences with the new shipping on Hasbro Pulse it seems...if I am missing anything please let me know.

Cheers and thanks!

[Grayfox]

What is this "new shipping" from Pulse you guys are mentioning?
Did they decide to finally change something?

[MilanX3]

Yes, they switched to FedEx International Express service...still expensive, but better than before.

I am just trying to make sure that there are no Brokerage fees or added fees beyond the flat rate shipping and HST/GST/PST for orders, as FedEx and UPS charge enormous Brokerage and other fees for Ground shipping...not sure if International Economy is a Ground service with Brokerage added or not.

Any added advice is always appreciated...Cheers!

I certainly didn’t order over $200. And the grand total you paid at check out included tax. They even broke down the tax into Federal GST and Provincial Tax. No extra brokerage or anything at delivery.

[QuadESL63]

It used to be that they charged a lot for just a little thing. When Hasbro Pulse just started Feb ‘19 I wanted the Siege G2 Heroes Megatron and the shipping to Canada was $70 I ended up using a cross border mail forwarding service for a lot less.

[MilanX3]

Thanks for your response.

Has anyone used this new FedEx International Express service with Hasbro Pulse recently and had a few different PreOrders come out at the same time and ship separately? Did they recharge you guys any more shipping? Thanks for your help with my questions and helping me dot "I"s and "T"s. Cheers!

[Grayfox]

Thanks for the info, guys. Maybe I'll start looking at Pulse as a option again in the future :)

I don’t know if they will group stuffs from different orders that have the same release date. I would say preorder things with the same release date in one order will be a better bet.

[TRUCKvsGUN]

I ordered the last two Seacons together, but they shipped separately, so I got to pay two parcel fees to the importer instead of just the one :\

Honestly I'll probably be just going through A3U from now on since they get all the Pulse stuff. It will probably work out to the same cost, but I'd rather give them the money.

Could be worth contacting Pulse and explain the situation. They might refund one of the fees, who know. Can't hurt to try, right?

What was the total for one Seacon shipping and fees included?

[MilanX3]

Two parcel fees, meaning you had to pay shipping twice? Over 200$ or so I think its set at a flat rate for 29.99 to ship...plus tax.

So are you saying they charged that 29.99 more than once, or another amount?

[MilanX3]

Good Day,

Finally got to speak with someone at Hasbro Pulse after too many days...

For the member who was charged shipping twice, they said they break up the total shipping amount, but the final cost of shipping should not exceed the initial shipping costs you paid for all yr items at checkout.

There isnt much Canada specific info on their page, again we are seen as Americans...will look into it more...anyone else who have ordered or preordered several items recently since 2019 from them, please add your experiences...

Cheers!

[KylerGrn]

I order Power Ranger gigs from hasbro pulse because the distribution is pretty bad in Canada. I'll pay 40$ for 6 figs in a wave, they have always been shipped as they've been released and I have never been charged more for shipping. So in my experience I've paid one flat fee for shipping and they will ship the items as they are released

For 6 figures, $shipping becomes decent, yes. but for smaller order, that's when we get hit hard(er).

Thanks for your response. So the total amount you pay for the entire order for the shipping is paid, and you are not longer charged shipping when each part of the preorder is sent out?

Or, they charge you a part of the shipping up to the total amount you paid for shipping for the entire order, but do not charge you more than the shipping paid for the entire order?

For taxes, duties, etc...do the break that up as well when each part of the preorders are sent out?

FedEx told me they charge a minimum 10$ brokerage fee...but have you been charged extra brokerage or other fees past the initial taxes and shipping from your Hasbro Pulse order? They use FedEx International Economy for your preorders?

Thanks for your help and apologies for the many questions, HP and FedEx have been giving me conflicting information.

Cheers!

Yup they wont ship to QC for whatever reason

[Banshee]

it's always because of the lack of French on the packaging.

I honestly don't get the not shipping to Quebec/french thing for the Pit. The Weaponizer exclusive has no such restriction.

I managed to have MPM-10 shipped here from TRU.ca despite it being not shippable to Quebec (no English on the box). Go figure.

[SHCKWAVE]

I honestly don't get the not shipping to Quebec/french thing for the Pit. The Weaponizer exclusive has no such restriction.

The current exclusives were for SDCC so no multilingual packaging as they were only meant to be sold in San Diego. Due to Covid they were offered instead on Pulse but the result is no sale to Quebec as the packaging is only English. Exclusives like the weaponizer was meant for mass retail so has the French on the packaging so can be sold to QC.

I have 6 packages waiting in Ogdensburg at the "myUSaddress" facility; they have a PushItNorth service to come up into Canada, and no storage fees for a year (for each package, from the date they arrive)
The pandemic even has them temporarily waylaying the 1+ year fees, for the timebeing

https://myusaddress.ca/

I was originally planning to pop across the border and pickup in person, but the pandemic has both the US and the Prescott, ON facility closed (to in-person pickups) - now I'm waiting for a point when I can afford the PushItNorth fees

I was gonna get a quint set but 100 usd (including fedex shipping plus customs) is a bit much for me. I'll settle for my single quint.

[UsernamePrime]

its sold out now. I bought 2 using 2 accounts. Now to get 4-6 allicons to complete my "ultimate quint shelf"

[Powered Convoy]

I wasn't able to get one after 2 hours of trying...hi-speed wired internet connection and all info pre-loaded at Hasbro Pulse. Ah well...:(

[Powered Convoy]

question: did you manually enter the CC info before or after clicking the final check out button?

if after then all you would get is a spinning circle that will take you no where but the CC info boxes came down to be filled still. I did that and waited like 20 mins with nothing.

I tried again but clicked the CC button for payment and then again for the drop down CC info boxes to show which let me enter the CC info and then hit the final check out, the confirmation was instant after that. Went smooth with both my orders.

After, because the CC info wouldn't open its fields for me otherwise. I tried clicking it twice! Maybe I needed to keep the checkout page open for a long time before clicking anything. Guess I know now for next time if there is one. Thanks for the tip!

I erased my post thinking it was just an issue on my end or something but it seems it was something others encountered.

[chaingunsofdoom]

So even with the broken CC info page fiasco, I got the items I wanted (and only missed Arc Troopers).


It ran MUCH better than previous years.


They changed the links I had bookmarked yesterday, as bot avoidance I would guess.


The CAPTCHA was good against bots too (yes I know what a chimney is).


If they were just doing preorders for 6 months out anyway, not sure why it would sell out. Open preorders, accept a bunch, then make them and ship in March.

I wasn't able to get one after 2 hours of trying...hi-speed wired internet connection and all info pre-loaded at Hasbro Pulse. Ah well...:(

Sorry that you didn't get it after all that. Very frustrating.

My first time as well.

Funny how much effort many of us are putting into something that is essentially a fancy piece of cardboard with two non-transforming figures - and other figures we can basically get anywhere.

:primelaugh:

I had that CC issue when I was trying to order the Sentinel. Didn't realize I just had to wait and keep clicking. But my wallet was thankful that night.

:primelaugh:

True...I do like how it's an all-in-one solution for that specific scene in the movie, though:) I don't usually get hyped about exclusives because they're often really expensive and hard to get, but this one seemed acceptable financially and (in theory) easy to get....oh well:scalper:

To further confuse the issue, Hasbro Pulse still lists the Pit as available for Pre-order, allows me to put it in my cart and proceed to checkout, THEN tells me it's sold out:rofl:

[zuffyprime]

Had the very same issue guys - especially the spinning wheel just spinning and spinning when I tried to complete my order.

Was able to log in at 4:30pm yesterday and get my CC.

I too don't understand why there is a limit on the Pre-orders.

Just sell as many pre-orders as you can and make the figures!

If you are talking about the Pit set Hasbro most probably have put in the orders months ago and things have been shipped (some locations like Hong Kong have already got theirs). These sets were meant for SDCC.

Tried to preorder but only had paypal to pay with and ofc it seems they don't accept it with preorders... -__-
I believe they don't accept PayPal for Canadian addresses. Or linked to Canadian credit cards or something. I always have to pay directly by CC, regardless of Canadian or US destination.

[DestronDecepticon23]

Don't suppose anyone who is buying the Breakdown but doesn't want the Jet Vehicon would want to split on the set?

Got that gold PoTP Starscream back then (‘18?) when TakaraTomy released these. The gold chrome holds no fading. But I haven’t really play with it since then so don’t know how good the gold chrome will stand rough play and handling.

Hasbro Pulse added the latest Kingdom POs and some sold out pretty fast. I am awaiting retail. :)

I contacted them about a cracked piece on the Galactic Man Shockwave that I received back in September and they finally got back to me. They are sending me a label to ship it to them for free and I will receive a refund (and need to repurchase it from HP as they are "separate").

[Tonestar]

They just charged my card so my God Neptune should be shipping soon to my sister's place in the U.S.
It sucks I will have to wait a while to get them and the Seacons I ordered due to the pandemic but some things are worth it.

Becareful with the stickers for the vehicon on the waist area. It's so small that it rips when you try to remove it before you even get to stick it on. Great set though, I love finally having breakdown.

[CyberDragon10K]

For Breakdown, I almost want to send him off for someone to just paint the sticker detailing on him. Never liked that part of the JP Prime toys.

I've made a few preorders and cancelled, they only charge when the item ships.

[chaingunsofdoom]

Got email this morning for the Breakdown shipment. Got the Neptune email yesterday.

As someone mentioned previously there is a slight lag from them charging your CC to when it ships if you watch your online statements closely. Usually around a day or two? That's how people can see what is coming before HP sends the actual email.

[evenstaves]

Please forgive the questions, I don't typically pre-order

Let's say you only got twenty bucks credit on you card
Would them taking the CC info be valid enough to call (let's say) a $100 item?
Or is it like, you got to have the whole amount available right when they take the info ("pre-authorization"), but it just doesn't leave yet?

[theoneyouknowleast]

A pre-authorization allows the merchant to verify you can pay in full when the time comes. If you don't have enough room it will fail.

At least Pulse just checks once. Walmart and Target pre-authorize your order every month.

Just got a bizarre FedEx voicemail saying I need to pay them $15 for a delivery... not sure if it is King Poseidon? Someone messed up at HP doing the forms.

Update: It was $5 GST and $10.50 handling fee for the Hades Prime reissue which we should not have to pay, so I emailed HP about it.

The King Poseidon shipping box was laughably oversized. 4 feet by 3 feet by 1 foot. SO many bubbles.

I got the same voicemail. $21.25 for Hades Megatron which I'm horribly confused by because of how gougey it is.

[chaingunsofdoom]

They have been good all year when I received my HP Exclusives. First one I had to pay for. It is GST (and other taxes) plus a $10.50 FedEx handling charge.

Looking at the form it says "bill third party" for fees so maybe just an error on the paperwork for this batch?

I'm in the exact same boat as you. Got the automated call from FedEx today for $14.98 and was like WTF? It isn't even $100 and I've had other items from Pulse arrive with no issues. Look forward to reading the response you get from them.

[canprime]

There is a chance that they changed their policy without notification, since big companies love to include that in their fine print.

Hopefully this is just an error, but if not then goodbye Hasbro Pulse orders.

If your vehicon can use both his left hands just as well does it mean he's ambidextrous? Or does it not count because one of his left hands is on his right arm?

[Sunburst]

I guess it depends whether your definition of ambidextrous means able to use both arms OR hands just as well. But it would be quite ironic if he was actually right-handed.

Lol it really would be. Poor guy.

[steamwhistle]

Technically, wouldn't any type of hand attached at the bottom end of the right arm be the right hand, since it would be situated on the right side of the body?

If you take a left tire off a car and put it on the right side, it becomes a right tire.

The last time I had this sort of gouging happen was when I ordered something from the Blizzard Entertainment Store and it shipped via FedEx. Assholes are the only ones who nickel and dime like this; it's retarded.

I only tolerated their bullshit then because one of the things I ordered was a Christmas gift for a family member.

E-mailed Hasbro Pulse with this update and am asking them to change shipping methods for my other order with them. Like hell I'm going to deal with this runaround another time...

[Digibasherx]

I received 4 Hasbro pulse packages this week and none had any additional shenanigans (knock on wood). However, I can almost guarantee every Sideshow item that arrives, comes with some bending-over-the-couch and a feeling of being violated.

That boggles the mind...

A FedEx employee at the Burnaby office told me they couldn't release the waybill/invoice for self-clearing (manager wouldn't allow it), so they're asking Customs YVR to forward the manifest (?) to my e-mail and telling to me I can do the accounting for the duties/taxes myself that way.

I have the strangest feeling they're giving me the runaround, or that self-clearing only works before the package has officially landed (and he checked, they have my Hades Megatron in the back).

Sounds like the same bs for Purolator, my items were at Purolator office for 2 weeks.
I went there twice them telling me its somewhere in the back and can't help me, its someone else's problem.
They said.
Don't like Purolator.
For this reason horrible delivery service.

4 of the 6 Seacons are up again for Preorder (Tentakil and Overbite are not... hopefully they pop up later today).

[joedick]

I ordered the 4 seacons and as I assumed would happen, Tentakil has now become available. Glad it's available but wish I coulda ordered them together.

Doesn't appear to be a pre-order like the others. I padded out my order with ML figures to make the shipping worthwhile, those figs ship in march, but the email I got suggests they'll ship Tentakil now. Wasn't expecting that but works for me.

Now I just have to figure out what to order when the last one inevitably becomes available. Then cry about how much money I spent when Hasbro announces the box set.

It's not that you aren't allowed to buy cool stuff in Quebec. It's that Quebec has ridiculous language laws that harm business and its own citizens.

Fair enough! I guess I was right place right time cause tentakil is sold out now while the original 4 are still available.

[Digibasherx]

It's weird that the 4 are still in stock. I'd expect they would've sold out by now; but then, Hasbro Pulse is all over the place, some items sells out within minutes, some never sells out even though you'd expect them to. What I ended up doing was creating a new order with all the times in stock, and then canceling previous orders to consolidate on shipping, and the CSR at HasPulse said no penalties for canceling as long as the item is in stock, otherwise you lose the item.

[theoneyouknowleast]

Hasbro pulse ships as items come in, and do not consolidate shipping.

You wont get charged extra, even if its multiple packages. However of you shipping to CAN, there have been some FedEx horror stories lately so be be warned. May want to look into self declaring.

I prefer to ship to a package forwarder like Cross Border Pickups and Shippsy.

[CyberDragon10K]

Regarding my fiasco with FedEx and my Hades Megatron, the agent assigned to my case (Mike at HasbroPulse) managed to clear with FedEx that there were no duties or taxes owed on my shipment.

I provided him pictures of the door tag FedEx left me (mentioned the tag in a previous post) and heard back on Monday that everything was cleared up. I waited about 45 minutes to get into the Burnaby location today to find that they'd released the shipment at my parent's house already.

I saw the ridiculously large box and groaned, thinking there was a lot of air pillows. To my surprise, Hades Megatron and the Breakdown/Vehicon set were both present. I thought the shipment was just Hades Megatron...

I have no love for FedEx and the company can die for all I care, but this story is happy end because HasbroPulse pulled through. ^^

I think pulse is starting to do open pre-orders, which is good! The tentakil I nabbed must've been a return or declined card or something since it is shipping right away while the others are for Jan or june.

If it helps you any, I sent an e-mail about the situation to Hasbro Pulse customer service when FedEx left me a voicemail asking $21.45 CAD for taxes/duties.

It was only the Prime Megs from all my various HP orders last year. There must've been a form error because no other orders were hit by FedEx. HP charges all taxes when you pay, so you should never pay anything on delivery.

Got contacted by Hasbro Consumer Care a month later. They gave the option between full refund and keep the item + receive «replacement of equal value». I'm in a gambling mood, so I took the later option. Afterwards, I read on TFW2005 boards someone who used the same option for the prime 2-pack and received... cyberverse ultra class Shadow striker :eek: Anyone else have experience with the «replacement of equal value» option?

I wrote in about issues with an ER Starscream a while back, and the Hasbro CS rep sent me an equal value replacement which ended up being SS-32 Optimus Prime.

I didn't even get an option to fully refund my Breakdown/Jet Vehicon 2-pack by sending it in though (stressed out of the box and tolerance issues) so the rep just sent out a replacement of "equal or greater value" which suggests they'll just send out whatever they have on hand that fits or exceeds the price point.

[chaingunsofdoom]

^ Sunburst: Too late now I realize, but I would go with full refund only if they have it in-stock still (and I see the Prime B/V 2-pack is in-stock).

I am still awaiting my refund cheque from the broken Galactic Man Shockwave that I sent back to them before Christmas. I reordered a new copy from HP first, so I knew I had it in case it went OOS.

IMHO gambling and getting a toy that you already have or one that you don't want/need is a last resort. If it were any of those, I would just donate it during the next Christmas Toy Drive.

[Sunburst]

I didn't even get an option to fully refund my Breakdown/Jet Vehicon 2-pack by sending it in though

Strange, I didn't think the options depended on who you talked to.

I did consider the refund & rebuy option, but it just felt like too much hassle compared to getting a free toy! The 2-pack I have, even if slightly annoying, I can live with. We'll see what happens in a few weeks.

February 3, 2021. First time in history FedEx has sent me a cheque in the mail. Not sure what HP order it was from but since HP refunded me once already for the Prime Megs order I will have to go check.

Is Devastator a good fig? Really tempted to pull the trigger on him.

I love mine. One of my favorites in my collection.

its a great figure but too big for me so i went with a G1 and G2 sets of the KO downsized version.

[chaingunsofdoom]

HP sent me an email saying my D&D Drizzt was sent. Box arrived today with GS02 and GS06 which I also ordered but I thought they were on pre-order still. Hmm...

[PetroRabbit]

Anyone got any experience buying a large set from HasbroPulse? See Scorpy is back up for pre-order and debating going for it. Could get shafted on the exchange by the time comes, but also worried about duties, given I know they collect sales taxes at the time you are charged.

Any insight would be great!

Cheers

[Soundwaves]

Have been his with duties every time I've ordered from Pulse.

[theoneyouknowleast]

use a package forwarder like Shipsy or CrossBorderPickups, easier

[jdevil]

So I bit the bullet and ordered Devastator from HP on the weekend. It arrives tomorrow so we will see what happens when it arrives. I did pay gst and pst on it.

[PetroRabbit]

Thanks for the feedback, that is what I was concerned about. I’ll look into the forwarding companies.

Cheers!

You will not be charged duties if you already paid full federal and provincial sales tax.

[chaingunsofdoom]

You pay tax in advance with HP. You should absolutely NOT be paying anything extra when it arrives. If you do contact them.

You can go back a few pages and read some posts about them correcting TF Prime Hades Megs for me which was their error (which they resolved nicely by giving me my money back).

[CyberDragon10K]

Yeah, if FedEx dings you trying to charge fees/duties then bring it up with HasbroPulse customer service and they'll have someone on their end square it off with FedEx.

[jdevil]

So the shipment is now at local sort facility. If FedEx asks me to pay should I pay and then seek a refund from HP or refuse to pay and then contact HP to figure it out.

Pay it and let HP know like said in previous posts.

[PetroRabbit]

Thanks for all the feedback round this and input, feel much happier ordering now. Did look at the T&Cs around the shipping and it does state that all duties and taxes are included, so to the point of many, you get dinged give them a call/message to sort it out.

[jdevil]

So Devastator showed up today. Guy just left it on my snowy stoop, no extra to pay in duty. The box looks like it had the living hell beat out of it and was slightly opened so I was a little concerned what was inside. When I opened it there was a another brown box with no damage tightly packed in side with air packing bubbles. I have not opened the brown box yet but I assume the "pretty" consumer shelf box is inside in pristine condition. This will not be my last order from pulse.

amazon had them too if you wanted to avoid this headache.

Pulse was cheaper than Amazon.com. Amazon.ca never had him.

Honestly, HP isn't bad at all, only gripe I had was you can never get all of the items you want in one go, and then settle for multiple shipments. But if you have it on PO, and another item becomes available (ie, all are available) you can create a new order and cancel the previous without penalties.

Man who is in that 3rd spoiler pack? Box is all "jungle-y"

Box suggests a fossilizer is present; is this that "Siege Megatron again, with the purple Paleotrex"?

[delrue]

The description says it's a "7-inch leader class" with a fossilizer. My guess is that it's BW Megs with the purple Paleotrex we've seen.

[Banshee]

You're not getting a leader class figure, a deluxe class figure and accessories in putty for 60$US.

I believe the leaks that it's Siege Megs + Paleotrex.

[delrue]

I just noticed this "This toy converts to vehicle mode in 17 steps" which is the amount of steps in the Siege Megatron instructions.

yes

do these usually go up on walmart.ca? I want to grab that leader mystery set!

[delrue]

The last couple could be found at Walmart and the various toy/comic shops.

I don't remember if they did end up on Walmart.ca or not. Walmart.ca has been real spotty for the past few years, that I barely consider it.

[Uni-En]

Thanks for the reply!

[MilanX3]

Could it possibly be Earthrise Megatron, as it seems as if Siege Megs has been done and redone several times?

[MapleMegatron]

It could be, the toy has never been truly confirmed. The only reason Siege makes more sense is because he has the same number of steps in the product description and the show uses the Siege Megatron model.

[savagephil]

It's prob the siege Megatron again with new paint. If it is earthrise Meg's hopefully they can up size the kingdom core class Meg's head and use that for the head

[evenstaves]

*confirmed Siege head again*

lol, it's like they confirming the ER head sucks

EDIT: In other news, looks like they bumped the pre-order ship-out date for Pit of Judgment to June 18th

I haven't ordered yet, but been considering it - was previously supposed to ship out this month?

I was expecting my Pit of Judgment in a little bit, yeah. Wasn't aware it was pushed back but not overly surprised. Thanks for mentioning.

Pulse shipped me my Spy Patrol 3rd Unit recently. Grabbed it from a Staples shipping center and wasn't charged anything for picking it up. A pleasant change compared to the last time.

Hopefully I won't be nickeled and dimed on the Pit of Judgment when it makes its way over.

Preorder Titan Black Zarak - https://hasbropulse.com/products/transformers-generations-selects-titan-black-zarak

[DestronDecepticon23]

I'd rather not deal with Pulse but as far as I can tell, Pulse will be the only way for us to get the set of Shattered Glass figures they plan to unveil including the new Blurr? Would have to assume the same with the new Fossilizer accessory bundle.
They opened a store in the UK, wish they'd do the same here.

[theoneyouknowleast]

Shattered glass showed up on Amazon AU, so maybe they will come to cad in the future.

I posted the CNET review video in the other thread, but the initial introduction from Jay & Silent Bob makes this thing worth every penny especially comparing it to MP-44.

The reviews need to link Jay & Silent Bob video, totally sells this thing.

Did anyone get to preorder Arc/Rodimus? I was at work and missed them :(
