Legacy GEN Selects Lift Ticket revealed
Early this morning, Hasbro Pulse did a special live-stream for paid premium members, to reveal some extra items after the PulseCon event last week, and the Transformers item revealed was the first of the Legacy GEN Selects toys for 2022 - Lift Ticket... a red redeco of Deluxe Earthrise Hoist, coloured to homage the Diaclone (pre-Transformers) toy, and given the name that FunPublications created for their red Hoist toy at BotCon 2015.
Some screenshots of the video event can be seen here, while the official images were released by Hasbro on facebook a few hours later... along with the product details...

Transformers Generations Selects Deluxe Lift-Ticket
Fans can take their Transformers figure collections to the next level with Generations Selects, a fan-dedicated line of figures featuring fan-favorite, special edition characters you can’t find in the main line.
The first Lift-Ticket figure was released in 2015 at BotCon as part of a Diaclone 2-Pack souvenir set. Now this figure is released on its own with deco based on the red variant of the Diaclone 4WD Wrecker Type. The Lift-Ticket figure converts from robot to tow truck mode in 20 steps. Figure comes with a blaster weapon accessory and flip down truck ramp in vehicle mode.
Includes Generations Selects Deluxe Class Lift-Ticket figure, accessory, and instructions.

(looks like they might have stopped using numbers for their GEN Selects toys)
The toy was up for preorder on American sites during the day (with first access to the paid Pulse Members), and it has already been listed here for pre-order at EBGames and Zing, for $50 (ouch - previous GEN Selects Deluxes have been $40-45 at EB) to be released around 1st March 2022.
It is likely to be on Amazon Australia as well, for a lot less, but if they don't list it in the next week, they might not list it until it is in-hand for release.
