    The amazon launchers look way better. Bluestreak's normal launchers are more show accurate i think. I read that Smokescreen will get some cool amazon exclusive stuff too. Anyone else read about this?

    Well, paycheque deposited. So now I have to decide whether it's the extra $10.00 or waiting 'til the end of October and having Prowl and Bluestreak ship together… hmr. I suck at delayed satisfaction, but I'm also (relatively) cheap.

    EDIT: Went with immediate satisfaction. It feels good. :)

    I ran it through Robot Kingdom both ways before I checked out. You only would have saved about $4 ordering together. Didn't seem even remotely worth it.

    I just switched all my preorders from BBTS to RK. My country has a high tax for products made in China, and RK said I can ask them to declare the value as $0.00. Has anyone else done this before? Is there a high risk of damage or theft? Any experiences shared will be appreciated.

    Sold some stuff, so I ordered two of each. $304-something together. $157-something each separately. Decided 3.34% wasn't worth the month wait on Prowl.

    Would RK change the order from a combined one to a seperate one? Without having to cancel it and put me further on the list? Or should I just wait and have them both ship at the same time...

    ha. so i'm not the only one then who did this to get 2 pairs on launchers. I'm pretty sure selling the spare will be easy.

    I already did! $85! :) 

    I kind of want a third pair, because I dislike the ones on Smokescreen, but I'm thinking Prowl is going to go without or Bluestreak might stick with the built-ins. Also, that was my budget for TFs *poof!* Or better yet, maybe someone will trade me a Prowl/Bluestreak set for the Smokescreen ones I don't think I want…

    Also, I'm pretty sure Dr. Wu will release versions coloured differently for everyone. He's hit all the Amazon exclusives so far.

    Sometimes I get uneasy feelings they aren't understanding me completely when I email them. I don't need them to cancel my pre-orders and then tell me to re-order seperately.

    I was just wondering if people have done this before. Before bothering to ask RK about it and confusing them to change up my order.

    i think they would be understanding. It's not like you're canceling the order. There would be an extra shipping charge for the additional postage needed for shipping.

    I almost had 1/2 of my hercules bots returned back to them due to a snafu with USPS, and emailed them regarding it. They replied back and told me they would keep an eye out. So i don't think they'll be mean or anything. I'm sure they would try to work with you. Give it a shot.

    No no I don't mean they wouldn't be accommodating or understanding in that way. They have always been polite and nice and have tried to help. I meant as in a language issue. I get the feeling sometimes they might not be fully understanding me and it leads to some confusion or something. Hence why I'm concerned they would cancel the order or something.

    Has anyone here done this before? Separated a combined order?

    Does RK send email order confirmations? I ordered Prowl like 36 hours ago and nothing yet. First time ordering from them.

    I got a confirmation immediately when I placed each of my orders.

    You've checked spam/junk folders just in case? And the obvious question, but it happens, you typed your email address correctly when ordering?

    I assume you used PayPal, did you get a confirm from PayPal also?

    I'm an idiot, it was in my spam. It was my hotmail acct and they NEVER spam anything unless you mark it as such. Never had a problem with an email confirm from a company so I didn't even think about it. Thanks for the reminder.

    It's shaped like a police badge. Cool.
