    They listened to fans and redesigned his (Eligos) legs, I believe that's the hold up but I could be wrong.

    I'd be surprised if we see him drop before CNY.

    There's a higher likelihood of FT releasing their Jazz render before this releases. In fact I believe the next render will be one where they'll just show everyone.

    FT Jazz feels so likely that if I was a betting woman, I would drop cash on it :lol

    I've been suspecting this for a while now. I hope it happens.

    But yeah, so much for a September release date.

    i think they said a final prototype in october with toy by end of year. to me that translates into after CNY for final product. just going by memory so i could be off.

    So CNY for this. That pushes Phoenix back to June/July. Add in Grinder somewhere along with Hot Rod and Springer plus Blitzwing... we are where now? 2018 ish?

    Don't mean to be that guy but did anyone who's been buying figures from FT for a while really think that this guy would be released this month, with FT's track record and all? To be on the safe side and to avoid disappointment I just add four to six months to whatever the release date is that FT put out.

    Dalianjj said the test shot will be out next month but I won't even be surprised if it is delayed!

    It was Dalianji or Daimchoc that mentioned it was being pushed to December (way back after the first test shots). Thing they are listening to the Fans and fixing the Ab and collar area.

    Rather them listen and do what they think is a good idea before spinning up the factory run. My wallet also thanks them so it can hit the gym and be ready.

    That is usually the delay reason from FT, but to your point, they are quite casual on the release dates aren't they.
    I think you got it..

    They can release it next summer for all I care, as long as they fix the abs.

    Man, I saw this thread bumped and came here thinking Dalianjj was giving us more eye candy. Alas, nothing to see here.

    I think this release is very telling of what we can expect from FT in the future. I don't think FT will put out an MP Galvatron and not eventually do:

    Cyclonus
    Scourge & Sweeps
    Rodimus Prime (Hot Rod is already in the works)

    I think Cyclonus and Scourge are almost definite. I would love a new Rodimus from FT. Expect that would depend on how well hoodlum sells. Fingers crossed
