Hasbro said their plan is to ship out Victory Saber before the Deathsaurus deadline.
Not only does that mean it's hopefully shipping within the next 4 or so weeks. But it will give everyone a chance to see how V.S. turned out before making a final call on Deathsaurus.

I'm hoping he hits the tier for the display base, just because it would be kinda lame if VS has one, but he doesn't. I need my overpriced collectibles to match when I put them on display, dammit.

So, Victory Saber. Gunboat mode is good, Enhanced Gunboat mode is good, Kitty-Ship mode is... a block, Kitty mode is good, Robot modes are all good. Micromasters are both good repaints.

So, Deathsaurus sailed past his bonus tiers, so we're getting the display base and throne. Guess Victory Saber will get his buddy in about a year or so.

Well, it's good you guys enjoyed the Micromasters so much, because the other two Rescue Patrol guys are coming with Deathsaurus Unless my memory has completely failed though, those are completely new molds, and the Rescue Patrol is then the only one where all 4 members have been updated?

Yeah, they're complete new molds.
I have to admit, my Victory Saber MMs have kinda proven...faulty? Legs pop off joints a lot on the police car and the firetruck's arms don't quite hold still in vehicle mode. Not sure if it's repeated re-use or the heavier paint proving less friction-y.
That said, the ones coming with Deathsaurus are Micromasters I actually had back in the day, so that's some nostalgia.

The Micromaster patrols I had were I think Air Strike, Offroad, Rescue, and Sports Car. The only one I still have all 4 guys of is Offroad. Each of the others is missing, annoyingly, one guy. Noticed you could take advantage of the post used to mount the shield to recreate this, something I don't think I've seen pointed out anywhere:

I know I had quite a few of the G1 Micromaster teams but the Rescue Squad was always one of my favorites and the only team I managed to keep intact over the years until they got stolen years ago. While the newer MMs are not as good as the originals (IMO) I do like that I can finally have a complete updated Rescue Squad after Deathsaurus ships out.
