ALL THINGS TRANSFORMERS!!!!

[KillKen]

Yeah I got mine on Monday. Well made I think with good articulation. People keep going on about price but it's like $100 every other month which I think is nothing.

My Long Haul is pre-ordered via Kapow Toys!

I think all the drama over TFC's Devastator on the main Transformers sites is going to cause some people to have a nervous breakdown

Whether it's _____ing about the price, the increasingly ridiculous arguments about the scale or the usual anti 3rd party crap it's all become very tiresome and I tend to ignore the threads about it.

All I need to know is,

Is the QC good?
Will Kapow Toys stock it?

So far that's a yes on both counts so all the other crap is irrelevant.

The only news I really want to see now is pics of Bonecrusher & Mixmaster.

iGear Sharkticon = Awesome! Subject to pricing I may get a few.

If their Wheelie is as good as Huffer & Seaspray I see potential for an kickass display with him sat on MP Grimlock and surrounded by Sharkticons

It's intresting that the serial number for the Sharkticon is TF-005 as it suggests it will be seperate from the PP series.

I wonder what TF-001-004 could be?

I definitely hear you Sam, I am ordering them through Robot Kingdom.

That's a much better price than BBTS. What's their shipping like? I'm guessing you've ordered from them before and that they're on the up-and-up?

 

[Deak Starkiller]

so does anybody here have that Exgraver in hand yet? i'm not much a TF collector anymore but this thing keeps calling my name in my sleep. i played with my G1 devastator so much as a kid that it was pretty much a pile of loose joints, falling limbs, and broken pieces by the end of it's life.

I should be getting mine sometime this week.

Yeah, they're reliable and cheaper. My total with shipping came out to $93.77, sure it takes a little bit longer but ExGraver with UPS Ground from BBTS would have cost me $8.29 (+ $97.99), so I am saving $12.51. Which is worth it to me when figures are this expensive. Check out MitchSantona's review on YouTube, he's a good reviewer. I think in the long run having a kick ass Devastator will be worth it.

I actually posted that a few posts back, as it was what kind of sealed the deal on this for me

I use BBTS's Pile O Loot, so that option works for me at the moment given that RK charges around $15 to ship. Looks like they're sold out, anyway. . .

 

[YoNoSe]

I just made my first Pile-Of Loot purchase yesterday. I got charged shipping, do they reduce the shipping cost for each additional item? Not sure how it works.

 

[Deak Starkiller]

Dont' get me wrong, I love BBTS and they're customer service but on these more expensive TFormers I have to go the cheapest route possible. I should be getting my NOT Shrapnel this Tuesday. RK must have just sold out, they had him last night. Also RK usually gets their stock a little sooner, I am going to order then next Hercules figure from them too.

Yep, that's really the point of it. If you added another to your cart, shipping would probably be $1 or so. Then, as you have more pre-orders roll in, as long as you don't tell BBTS to ship them, they'll add all that stuff together into a single shipment to save you on shipping costs. They're really my go-to place for pre-orders due to that, their no-cost pre-order cancellation policy (until it comes in stock, then you can still cancel and get full store credit if you change your mind within 2 weeks), their reliability, and their customer service.

Thanks. I love BBTS for the same reasons. Also they are the most reliable for overseas stuff that doesn't get to most US retailers. It's just that shipping is pricey since I'm on the East Coast. I'm glad they have this option.

just threw an Exgraver in my pile of loot at BBTS. it's funny cause Scavenger was my first Constructicon when i was kid too.

That's a good Craw, I think come next April it will have been worth it to have a kickass Devastator. He'll look awesome with your collection Jon. Awesome indeed.

yeah. he'll look good next to my G1 Soundwave. the only TF i have left.

how's my TFs doing BTW? are you treating them right? not leaving them out in the rain are you?

They're good, nice and on display...giving the finger to my G1 toys. Thanks again Craw.

another configuration

 

[lerath666]

just got mine as well. REALLY like the green and purple on him. And he feels EXTREMELY solid. like a standard mass market release. A 3rd party that feels that way... me like.

 

[Jaycepticon]

another configuration

has there been any pics of him next to any Predaking guys yet? I'm just trying to get an idea of how they might stack up

 

[lerath666]

just wait and get the new predaking that TFC announced at TFcon. Pretty sure they'll stack up nicely.

 

[Deak Starkiller]

See, I don't think I'd buy a Predaking. The G1 version is pretty badas, one thing Devastator was lacking was size. Hercules more than makes up for it. The only other combiner I'd buy would be a Menasor, but Devastator is just too iconic to pass up.

 

[Jaycepticon]

That's what I'm saying. I have Devastator and Predaking will all the Crazy Devy parts and he looks so awesome that I'm not even looking to replace him but my CD Devastator just looks silly posed next to him bc of how small he looks and Hercules might actually look like he belongs in the ring with Predaking.

And yes, an updated Menasor is the #1 TF on my wishlist and I'm not interested in the 3rd party Animated one coming out.
