    Man Primal continues to look swanky as hell.

    So does Inferno. Inferno is one of the cleanest MPs I've ever seen.

    Madness in my opinion, but I'm sure you have your reasons. It's getting closer, less than two months surley?

    Yeah, for some reason after looking at the latest pics of Primal I just didn't have that 'wow feeling' anymore - it was surprising for me.

    Ultimately I need that wow factor if I'm going to spend the money, especially when I have other things on the radar in the coming months. :) 

    They definitely look great, just not an ideal fit for my refined collection these days.

    As much as I hate everything about the last few G1 MP reveals, HATE, I really like both BW MPs and cannot wait to get them. It's the only faith I have left in TT.

    26 days! Is anybody else as excited as I am for the box? I know that sounds kind of off, but seeing a box with 'Transformers' written in neon green, and that giant green reptilian eye right in the center of the box may make me well up.

    Preorder price stays locked at HLJ at least, right? It's just the shipping I'm worried about lol.

    I'm glad he's not coming out until late in the month. Gives me time to (FINALLY) get well and recoup some funds.

    Price is locked, but exchange rate isn't.

    I thought HLJ locked the exchange at whatever it was in USD at the time of preorder? Hence our invoice still reflecting that amount? I know PNY and others don't do this, I thought this was something that distinguished HLJ? I've never had them change prices on me even after massive exchange rate shifts. Only higher or lower shipping. ???

    Pretty sure it simply depends when you were charged.

    I wish he was bigger than carbot-sized, but since the Beast Wars-era TFs WERE canonically smaller than the ones in the "Great War", I can't really complain. I'm getting swayed.

    I never pay HLJ until they are ready to ship and request it and they have never, ever increased or decreased the price from what it said in USD at the time I placed the preorder. Have they changed this policy?
