    I saw a thread a few days ago about when people expect Encore toys to be shipping in the US. I got my notification today from BBTS that my Convoy shipped out!!

    And new Convoy are now again on backorder..with Soundwave and Starscream available, but Megatron also on backorder. I already had TFC #6 Megs, so I didnt spring for that one anyway.

    Just thought I'd give those a heads up who either ordered it from BBTS or from other us sources..should be going out momentarily if it hasnt already. :thumb

    nice. I ordered a bit later in the game so I might not get my notification for a couple of days.

    ditto. I ended up with some store credit, so I decided to get another one of these puppies. I think this puts me at 3-4 g1 primes. ;)

    Does anybody know what the differences are from previous reissues? I heard that there were some slight changes to the molds or somthing extra.

    From what I've seen/read:

    Starscream's cockpit window is a different colour

    Soundwave has a rub but on his left shoulder like the recent hasbro reissue

    supposedly megs and prime are lighter coloured but I couldn't tell a difference from the pics

    tampo symbols on prime, maybe on starscream too.

    many stickers on soundwave are pre-applied.

    Nevermind what I posted earlier - I just logged into my BBTS account and it says the set of four will arrive on August 16th...just in time for payday!

    I was gonna turn off my loot yesterday so he'd ship immediately but I forgot. Guess I'll just have to wait a few more days.

    Very excited, first non-demolished G1 Prime that I've had my hands on in over 20 years.

    don't forget this is the first (I believe) reissue with the grey roller!
