Target Range - The Pulse Era (2022-current) |
|
Description: This week, we'll go with the anti-thesis of the original 13 and look at any figure from the Pulse era. It can be Skystriker figures, Transformer pack ins or from any other release.
I went with this Stalker. Ostensibly, this should be among my favorite releases of the era. But, I really never use him. Mostly because the main calling card is softer plastic. But, the 1997 version already delivers upon that. And, it's a better release in every single way.
The brighter greens on this figure, though, are nice. And, I was surprised about how bright it actually is. It's closer to a South American release colors (or Auriken) than Hasbro. So, that's definitely a plus that may get me to use him more often.

| September 20, 2024, 04:59:36 PM The only Pulse era figures I wound up getting were the Officer and Trooper. The matte finish looks horribly ugly to me, and with little else to redeem them I was never able to justify these figures.
Why were the TF crossovers just retro figures? They should've released ones like this Stalker on his own and included figures in Transformers related decos like those BAT's TBM made. These releases really couldn't have been any lazier or more greedy. |

| September 18, 2024, 07:03:55 PM I don't have any of the pulse era o-ring figures. The two packs really didn't do much for me, and I didn't get a skystriker, or any of the crossover sets.
This Stalker does look nice, I probably should have tried to get one when he was available. |

| September 17, 2024, 03:02:32 PM I agree the soft plastic makes this guy easier to use. I love my swivel-arm Stalker, but I'm constantly afraid of breaking his thumbs if I get him out. He's a good match with the Slugger! |

| September 17, 2024, 02:54:55 PM I only just got Stalker out of the package a couple weeks ago. I like him, he's a nice figure, but he just doesn't pop like the Sunbow Cobra Commander figure. |
