    I'm done waiting, and optimistically hoping we get the sets this month. I understand there were some QC issues that needed to be ironed out, but reasons specific to me:
    -even though I've spent quite a lot on TFs as of late, I always budget properly. Sometimes there's big time purchases, other (not as often lol) I spend very little/none
    -my b-day's at the end of the month
    -they're just too awesome to not have NOW

    Again, I'm glad they didn't just release it with problems...but the impatient kid in me really wants dem toys!

    Edit: just wanted to add another reason. I have a whole bunch of other items waiting for me, so the Crossfire sets are essentially the final domino.

    I've already paid my preorder off so I will just continue to wait patiently. No rush. Such awesomeness should never be rushed.

    I don't mind waiting, as long as they get the product right. I paid for mine back in February when I ordered them, so I don't have the $$ burning a hole in my wallet...

    I keep checking BBTS every few days...

    It was a good sign to see the full pics on Siebertron a week or two ago...

    Ya, now would be good. TFSource has my money already so no worries about that. Of course, if one shows up with issues I'll think to myself "I could've waited another month" LOL.

    They're pushing it back again. They are always pushing it back, this time is no exception. This set doesn't have a "release date" so much as it has a punchline. It's all a hoax, I'm pretty sure.

    Shouldn't sellers in Asia have them before they arrive here in the US & Canada? I may be wrong, but I'm thinking if sellers in China/Hong Kong have them already (which I haven't seen yet), then its a good indicator they'll be here shortly.

    Or do both sides across the ocean get their supplies during the same time?

    Based on the TFSource Review and pictures, YES.

    No question about it. Based on the tfsource video review, these two are amazing and will definitely live up to the hype.

    Any news on the delivery? toyarena claims that tomorrow they should have some in stock though I doubt it being a Sunday and all.

    I truly envy the patience some of you guys have. I'm anxious for this thing to arrive since all the QC problems have been fixed.

    I can understand one or two delays due to QC issues...but these items were originally slated for an April release date. It is now Mid-August and there's been no official confirmation regarding the sets reaching the online distributors.

    Crossing my fingers for some type of "THEY'VE ARRIVED!" notice from the online retailers within the next few days.

    Was this an actual notification of some type? Otherwise I'd chalk it up to a "mid-August" estimate, so the 15th was picked accordingly regardless of the fact it's a Sunday.

    The constant "nearly but not yet" is driving me crazy with anticipation to receive this set.
