    That's a perspective, and not facts. Its really negative, but then again you can say that about anything if you dislike it enough.

    I dIdn't know a release schedule verifies the last two bots.

    The names are old news we have seen them long ago (I think when the 3rd figure was released)

    I am not a doomsdayer and saying the last 2 figs don't exist but we still have no proof either way. A release date means nothing.

    These are the only figs I budgeted for this year so I don't mind waiting. Getting into joes more. Just can't find the darned things in stores.

    I've never seen you in real life. you don't even have an avatar image with your posts. I've never seen a post from you before when I visit the boards. and I've never tasted your grandmother chocolate chip cookies in the day of april 13th. Therfore...you must be a neon orange mechanical lion!

    Swap FP with, say, iGear, and then we're talking :p . TFClub and FP are on friendly terms with each other. TFC gave FP their start after all, commissioning and distributing the Cliffjumper kits.

    So this schedule actually contains pics of the last 2 bots and the combined mode? I'll have to look very closely.... Shit I don't see it. Can someone please help me find the pics that put the fears of no pics to rest?

    When I see AT LEAST a rendering of the final bots and/or combined form I will count on buying these.

    Here is my schedule for this year.

    August:I will fly
    September: I will be able to breathe under water
    December: Space flight (Longer gap for training)

    You can make a schedule that says anything you want it to. PICS OR GTFO

    The schedule seems to fit with what we've heard before and it's nice to get a general idea of when these might come out, although 3rd party products are always a little delayed. I'm hoping BBTS gets preorders up for the other 5 soon.

    6.3", not bad. Somehow I think we'll get pictures of folks reenacting (Masterpiece) Starscream's infamous coronation scene from the G1 movie and have all 6 of these Constructions playing little trumpets. XD The size should be about right for it, lol.

    That said, the new pictures are cool, and glad to see the hand tucks very neatly away in alt mode. But what about (non-combined) bot mode? Does the hand just chill there and lie around?

    Still would feel more comfortable with pictures of the last two bots and the final combined mode, but I'm sure the first reviews of Exgraver will convince a lot of fence-sitters to make a decision one way or another.

    not to pile on but theyve had prototypes of the other three for a very long time as well. since they havent had pics of the other two it is very safe to say they are struggling with the development of the remaining figures.

    this is going to work GREAT for me. I was just wondering about this actually.
    My wife and I sat down and created a TF budget, and one of the limits is one purchase online over 50 dollars a month.
    with the space in between these releases, it'll be a lot easier on the wallet. I can wait patiently if it means alleviating stress on my bank account.

    they probably have problems with mixmaster mostly. its either that or they are keeping the pics for last but too bad too sad for them. if TFclub has it they should just release it and quit the teasing already. fans have options now. if its the first, that's just too bad. i doubt it but too bad.

    Maybe the pics are within Exgraver's packaging.

    Pictures would have been nicer, but I'm still holding onto hope that this entire thing will be released. The gaps in between make the pirce a tiny bit easier to swallow as well.

    it would be great! devastator and combined mode. in a week or two we'll see it anyway.

    since this possibility is out and has been said, just to play the devil's advocate what if its not? LOL!

    really I don't see what the fuss is about.
    why on earth would a company delve into a project this big, have prototypes of half the completed bot, and not finish up with the other two? talk about a wasted business venture.
    They'll release pics. Keep in mind it's well over half a year before the other two are set to come out, maybe they're working out some details on them before releasing shots. How many months has it been since we first saw prototypes of Exgraver?
    There's no silly conspiracy going on, and with the size of TFClub's operation I doubt they're in financial trouble. Just be patient people.
