ALL THINGS TRANSFORMERS!!!!

[bicoid18]

BBTS are starting to ship Apollyon orders.

TFS-Express in the UK are expecting to recieve their stock either tomorrow or Friday.

Time to rearrange my Decepticon shelf, the boss is almost here!

Yep. Mine has already shipped!

Just wondering if anyone here has used the faction dry rub decals from Ocean Designs? Those look nice but I'm leaning towards picking up some Decepticon waterslide decals from eBay.

My polly is in route as well! Cannot wait.

I'll have to wait a little longer for my Apollyon from BBTS as I have Wardog arriving soon.

All things transformers!!!!

Mine shipped too. While I'm not 100% sold on Apollyon, I think it's the best representation of a G1 Megatron we will be getting, at least for a while until TT decides to make one, which I doubt.

Or, until the Ultimetal one comes out.

I was looking at TFSource and noticed the price on the second batch of Apollyon has been raised from $149.95 to $164.95. There's a note saying no changes have been made to the second batch of figures but the price was raised by the manufacturer. Glad I got one at the cheaper price. I have a feeling this thing may have a decent secondary market price jump.

For the second batch the price has risen from £99.95 to £109.95 here in the UK.

Still a phenomenally good deal when compared with official figures, MP13 cost me £160 and the Asia Exclusive Skywarp was £140.

Are there any English dealers that still have Apollyon in stock that you'd recommend corsair?

Not sure where else to look to be honest, TFS-Express are the official UK supplier and they're out, Kapow have stopped dealing with XTB and Masterforce.co.uk are out even though they had a dodgy policy on returns for that particular figure.

Think Corsairs right we are down to TFS only now

What I do find surprising still is that there are none on Ebay for pre-order which you'd expect by now.

I waited too long & I'm still not really sure I care if I'm brutally honest I really can't see it being done any better by anyone else but I just don't feel the need at the moment to jump on it.

Gutted that the price has seen a hike though so if I do go for it I need to stump up extra cost.

TFS-Express now have Apollyon in stock and will start shipping this afternoon!

They are also opening their pre-order for the second batch tomorrow at £109.99.

Early in hands reports at TFW are mixed, it seems there's been a couple with minor paint issues so the Chicken Littles are out in force and trying to claim the entire run is like that

Road Rage looks good.

 

[thecorsair]

Another carbot repaint =

Takara need to change the record before 3rd parties beat them to every other character that's financially viable to make.

 

[Snakey Jones]

I like road rage; but i wish they did something to make her shoulders thinner, they look mannish and make her look pinheaded imo

 

[GeneralZodLives]

I don't see a girl bot in that design at all.

 

[MTL79]

I see fembot more in the hips though, you can argue she's wearing a bullet proof vest

 

[karamazov80]

I don't see a girl bot in that design at all.

Agreed, even the effeminate posing doesn't make me think it's a female. But still, fantastic looking color scheme. I actually like it more than Tracks, but. . .no G1 cartoon, no buy.

Just got Apollyon in! Unfortunately I won't be able to open it until sometime next week since it is at my US address. Didn't want to risk customs confiscating my toy across the border. :gah

Got my Apollyon Megatron today

what a transformation NIGHTMARE!!! So much to do in this transformation and the scare of breaking the thing...I just wanted to throw it across the room

I made passed half way and said screw it, back to robot it goes!

In Robot mode it's Beautiful! Best Megatron to date! but what an engineering nightmare transforming it.

The new arm socket joints are super tight! they are so tight,you risk breaking it. I went back to the old joints...works fine as is..

the plug on the gun barrel came out with ease,but the other orange plug on the silencer will not come out at all..

overall,as megatron in bot mode,the figure is great...but the transformation SUCKS!
