    I still have no clue if the final Cryo-Scourge will have the gold Jungle key. This is twice we've seen in-package samples with silver keys, and the back of the box shows a silver key. But several Downshift samples had Jungle keys, and Vector Prime and Megatron's boxes have gold painted keys rather than silver.

    Bravo, Hasbro, some intelligence, Prime's key is painted and he's transformed correctly on the box, took long enough to figure that one out.

    I may be misrecalling, but I'm given to understand that he wasn't transformed incorrectly the first time, and that the alternate we saw on the box was actually in the instructions for Japan.

    Funny that we're already getting in package samples as these guys aren't due out until August and September respectively. Of course, we're already seeing in package samples of the Classics and they're not supposed to be out until November.

    I'm skipping Op but since I missed Scourge the first time I may get cryo Scourge.

    We're usually getting packaging samples a few months ahead of the official release.

    The first wave of Cybetron massively leaked six months prior to their US release.

    Galaxy Force Prime in package isn't exactly news. I think we've seen it already.

    I like Cryo Scourge- a very good repaint, and I liked the original. But $27 for a figure I already have is a bit much- I hope to see him on clearnace just after Christmas. GFOP I can do without.

    Just to let you guys know that Cybertron Quickmix with Stripmine is OFFICIALLY out in Singapore. It's a disappointment as I thought he's gonna be Menasor's size but turned out to be Soundwave's instead. Along with Quickmix, I'd also gotten hold of Cybertron Deluxe STD Optimus Prime, (a.k.a Bendy Prime) Deluxe Unicron (crab, spider whatsoever) & LOC Sunstorm. As I'm still new to this, I do not know how to post but I'll like to inform you guys first. :D

    If you have the ability to take a pic in box, I'm sure you'll make the front page again, which will be twice in a day for you. Contact a mod or admin if you're interested. And congrats!

    I'll take pictures of them, hopefully I can get this done within a day or two. Might need help from you guys as I'm kinda unsure of where I should be heading after that. A BIG "THANK YOU" to Nevermore too for posting the Botcon Dinobot picture for all to see. :thumb

    Yes, Quickmix is a Voyager.

    Did he ship together with Galaxy Force Vector Prime (the golden Hasbro repaint)?

    I do not see Galaxy Force Vector Prime anywhere on the shelves so I think it's not due for release just as yet. Moreover, collectors in my country ain't that keen in repaints thus I do not think that it should sell off this fast. Anyway, I've the pic of Quickmix taken together with a receipt, all done in TF2005 tradition so I hope I can now do this right.. :wink:
