    I can't explain how happy I am to have a Scourge on preorder. This set looks drop dead gorgeous.

    Also, DAT CAPE.

    ...I can see someone repainting this version (or a KO rather) into Vader for some reason... >_>

    Ok, now we just need a takara/ehobby release or KO release of the TFCC Scourge coming out.

    Yup, I too am relieved to have TFCC Scourge preordered. I was lucky when someone dropped their preorder at BIG BAD. I even upgraded to "collector" grade at checkout. It was only 2.00 extra, and I wanted to make sure the card wasn't bent or the figure was in any way mishandled (plus they ship their collector grade articles in a box within the shipping box - like the shitty movie, Inception).

    Where are the pre-orders for this, Daim? I did a quick search and couldn't find them...

    so just going by the one pic, I see a new head and the cape. Anything else new compared to the previous versions?

    One set of spikes... and a set of Skulls to hold the cape up it seems.

    So it has a Spawn or M. Bison (Dictator) vibe now that I think of it...

    That's quite a cool design. Would love to see it become official so I can buy it.

    Lucky you. Someone directed the link to me and it was sold out just minutes before I clicked on it. Meh.

    I think I am going to just repaint an RTS prime at the rate of how expensive he may be and TBH it would be a much cheaper route and I really don't want to have to pay that much more out of the pocket for a subscription figure.

    I want this, but I didn't pre-order a TFCC Scourge. Too expensive for me. I'll probably have to hope for a KO to come out or try customizing one.

    I'd hardly see this being as limited a run as the trailers for the Botcon Laser Prime molds were. There are undoubtedly more of the Scourge figures made than the Botcon figures, as they were pre-set limited figures... Although, as I say in almost all of these Third party threads... Captured Prey, or bust. NOT getting it from overseas or BBTS.. No matter how much I want it. Or I'll just wait for the KO.. All ranting aside... That trailer better be chromed.

    Also, need I not mention... After the club replaces any that may or may not be damaged in the shipment process... All left-over figures will be sold at the club store.. It'll be for a slight mark-up... But I'm sure it'll be cheaper than when the various online retailers had them up for pre-order a year ago, and cheaper than the secondary market. If I can get in on that, I just might buy a second from the TFCC for this set, depending on price/availability.

    ^This is the reason why I want the TFCC Scourge and the Nemesis Armor so much. I already have the Shadow Commander and the Shadow Scythe, and I got the Mobain Fallen on preorder. After getting the Scourge and the armor, I plan to take a picture of the whole group and maybe write a fanfic about them. I'd like to think of them as a third faction, neither Autobots nor Decepticons, that was put together by the Fallen to bring Chaos to the universe.
