Ha! - I've just found out two of the guys I was talking about finally received their KO Seekers - allbeit 8 weeks after ordering! I guess just a little more faith and alot more patience were required. So although IGear's customer service was......somewhat shabby, perhaps we should'nt panic too much yet. I'm invested for the PP05 brothers myself. I'm confident they'll be released and I'm sure I'll be happy - as long as they don't have 2 right fists....

Also, where is the box art or final colouring photos of these guys? Come on IGear! Throw us a frickin' bone here.

 

Might be because they aren't coming out.

 

Do you have some insider information or something? Or is that a guess?

 

It's a guess..... They are still coming out. =)

No official communication from iGear, no color samples or packaging pics, no toys in fans hands. If there's a difference between "the way things are now" and "not coming out", I sure can't spot it.

 

Hmmm a video of a completed black version of the item. An insider stating that the box art and bio will be done next week. Either you missed some newer info or that just isn't enough for you.

General rule of thumb, when you see a black version of the figure vs the grey prototype, that generally means the moulds are completed and that sample was pumped out of the mould.

 

"Insider" lol. An insider tells me they aren't coming out at all, that's why iGear refuses to communicate officially. See how easy it is to make up "insider" information?

 

See how easy it is for YOU to make up insider info.

Many insiders have proven themselves to either be closely affiliated with the groups (friends) or work for the groups.

I know my insiders and when this guy says the box art and bio will be worked on this week, in the very least it will happen soon.

So you can go on and worry and wait for something that YOU feel is cancelled. I and many others will wait patiently with confidence that these will be released soon.

Keep tabs many are waiting for Transbot to be wrong and here is another opportunity   but as alway..I will be right for the insider told me so..heck he posted it in this very thread LOL

 

I hope you're right, but words are easy and producing a toy is hard. Too hard for iGear to manage consistently, apparently.

 

I go with Transbot, as I said before, getting projects to work right, specially with complex mechanisms tames time, an amount of time completely off to measure or predict.

Only flaw was lack of communication and being too optimistic.

 

ultimately id much rather have a quality product a few months later than something that was rushed to hush all the impatient critics. these guys look awesome and if igear pulls it off and gets these out this summer ill be happy in the end.

there is a nice size hole in my collection since i sold my universe ironhide and ratchet, but these guys look to make the wait worth it.

 

Ima side with Transbot on this one. I've yet to see any hard evidence of iGear cutting and running with any folks' money on a preorder. These guys will be released when they're released. I'd rather they take their time getting it right than rushing out a release and having to deal with any QC fallout (MP-09 anyone?).

 

Less than a month to go til their 3rd attempt at a release, hoping 3rd times a charm but really would like to see an update from igear on them of any sort.

 

I am holding out on pre ordering until they give us an update  

 

 
Been a while since an update

 

Hi Transbot, any news from the insider? 4/15 is approaching and still no box art, no bio, no black prototype... I'm fine with them taking their time to give us the best quality possible, but the lack of updates is really bothering me...

 

You know what else hasn't been updated in a while? Photographs of unicorns, the actual location of Santa's workshop, and the number of angels that can dance on the head of a pin. This shit just aint happening folks.

 

Considering how many projects Igear seems to think they can work on I'm sure thats why we've seen such a delay in these. I doubt they would Bail on this project with how far along they are, unless Has/Tak got to them.
