I got a notice back on the 13th of May that Pandinus will be shipping from Big Bad Toy Store soon. The email said it would arrive at their warehouse within the next 10 business days.
I'm a little scared to go forward with my preorder on this guy. He looks so amazing, and I feel as if I can't live without it, which is silly. My only two fears are the giant price and the giant size. I don't have a really good place to put him besides on top of my detolfs. Putting him there would mean I have to get rid of some stuff from up there since it is full of Japanese vinyl toys and large figures that won't fit in the detolfs. I do have Hasbro's Combiner Wars Devastator up there with his X2toys add on parts. So if I put Pandinus up there he won't be alone. As for the price, it is pretty high, but I've been selling some Transformers for my friend and we've split the profits. So I've actually earned the price of Pandinus from that. Getting Pandinus almost makes me want Utopia. I would want Utopia more if I didn't have the Hasbro Metroplex already. I think the only real reason I'd want Utopia is to have him in scale with Pandinus.
Anyone else getting Pandinus? Where do you guys display giant Transformers like this?
I hope they do decided to make another run sometime down the road
It's a shame about those hip flaps though. They don't ruin the figures for me but they are unfortunate.
