Earlier today Hasbro updated their Facebook Page with an announcement about a "Fan First Friday" coming this week! However, the most interesting part of the post is found in their summary text which includes the phrase "Let's say GO!". This phrase was one of the catch phrases used by Star Saber in the Transformers Victory series!
Over the past few months Hasbro Pulse has been carrying limited quantities of store exclusives such as Walmart's Netflix figures. Their most recent "shared" exclusive is Walgreens exclusive Red Alert! There was no previous official announcement for this figure but leaks have indicated this would be coming for months now.
Hasbro Pulse held a Fan First Friday event today. During this live stream, three new Studio Series 1986 figures were revealed: Perceptor, Starscream and Sweep! Perceptor is an all new figure while Starscream is a redeco of the Earthrise Starscream figure with "Coronation" gear including a cape and throne (bumping him up to Leader Class). Sweep is of course, a redeco of Scourge. You can watch the stream and check out official product descriptions and images below. I have also linked to the BigBadToyStore and Entertainment Earth pages for those items.

Daily checks of the Target app for T-Wrecks have paid off! This morning the app told me the Target in Menlo Park, NJ had four in stock so I raced over. At first I was worried because he wasn't on shelf, but it turns out they had not put him out yet. A very kind employee helped me snag one from the back - so he's out there folks! You can check his listing on Target's web site to order him online or see if he's available near you. Here's the product info if you're hunting:
