Mine as well. 2-3 days yay!

 

*has paints ready to cartoonify him*

 

Can someone put him on Constructor?

 

What do you plan to do? paint the boob windows ?

 

First thing I'm doing tomorrow (hopefully)

Yup amongst other things like thighs and feet

 

I'm looking forward to actually receiving him. You sure do seem to get excited about the boring mundane parts of this hobby.  

 

He arrived at ToyDojo today!

 

Dammit tcp still shows processing. Wtf?!

 

Funny enough, I actually do enjoy the shipping notice and the tracking. It gets old when it takes forever to arrive (like that forever step between China and the isc and then waiting for it to leave the isc) but there's some joy in watching the tracking updates. What I can't freakin' stand is waiting for the seller to get it in stock and just hoping it gets there soon. Especially with cny coming.

 

Just received tracking info from TCP. Should be here by Friday, just in time for the weekend.

 

Yeah mine shipped finally. Had this on preorder since October so was wondering.

 

Screwed up by not placing my order earlier over at TCP since they had the three Zetas that I wanted. Would've gotten free shipping too.

 

U might try showzstore.com they have him at $57 I think and free shipping to US

 

Yeah, I've been keeping an eye on them, but currently, he is still listed as preorder over there. I would've preferred TCP since they're US based. Would be getting the figures sooner.

 

True. I've got to move to China. Cheaper figures and get them soon too

 

Wouldn't it be great just to walk into a store and buy these

 

OK so collapsing the arms is a bit of a bug bear, but you can make it easy enough to almost enjoy it  
This method works perfectly so thought id share it.


So starting with the arm in a fairly normal position, I've already hidden the hand and collapsed the elbow here.



Drop the arm down using the outer hinge so its top is level with the top of the inner hinge.


Rotate the arm forwards 90 degrees and swing the side panel out


Collapse the side panel in on the double hinges



Rotate the arm back down


Rock it up on the shoulder hinge and tab it in.

 

Bbts is taking too long and tcp shows it in stock. I was about to try to cancel bbts but I see that it shows as processing now so hopefully they'll invoice me today and get it shipped out.
I've never been a patient man but damn buying transformers brings out the worst in my impatience. I dunno', it just makes me crazy when I pre-order something and then I have to watch while all these other people talk about getting it already and post pics and stuff. And I'm just like, "cool, but why don't I have mine yet?"

 

Nice--thanks for the picture tutorial!

 

I hear you. I was refreshing Flyfire's page on TF Source a bunch yesterday, and cursed a little every time it showed the item available for preorder instead of in stock.
