    i just shipped my ss86 grimlock, Kingdom Tracks and Scorponok. I didn't want to ship yet but the 90 days is about to expire and I'm going on my honeymoon in a few days. Luckily my mom was cool enough to let me ship them to her house so wheN i get back I'll have some stuff to look at

    Yea, I'm shocked this release isn't getting ripped to shreds given how a lot of people feel about that mold and a lack of any armor/trailer. I might have bit if there was Diaclone coloured armor with it. I would think it would be a hard sell even for Galaxy Upgrade Optimus Prime owners since the colours won't even remotely match.

    No worries, I did find it on TF Source when googling it days ago, I just swore I saw it on BBTS before, but I coulda been wrong. Just sometimes if pre-orders are sold out and they might not get anymore in they'll just flat out take the page down for the item on their site, so it wouldn't had been out of the norm for me.

    Okay but if it was sarcastic, I love how specific it is. Like...why did the existence of G2 Hubcap hurt me so bad?

    Lol, just everything about it. Like who is that excited about G2 Hubcap? And why is the fact that it's a repaint of something you already have good? Wouldn't it be better to get a mold you don't have? I don't think you are being sarcastic (and it would be fine if you were) but it was Soooo close, it made me laugh.

    Is BBTS ever going to get the Volcanicus upgrade kit in? It looks like a bunch of other sites have gotten but it still says coming later this month.

    I KNOW!!! I've been watching it for awhile cause i wanna order from the same place then have to track multiple packages from different stores. Its like theres five major items i want and each store carries only one.

    Oh, I'm absolutely not being sarcastic, and I promise I am the one person this excited about G2 Hubcap, so if the rest of y'all wanna wait for the remaining 499 to go on clearance, treat yourselves :lol

    Got an email that a couple items in my PoL must be shipped within 7 days, but if I check in my account it says they only have 5 days left.

    Probably because 5 days from now is over the weekend. 7 days takes you to the next workday. Makes sense considering they don't ship over the weekends.

    Yeah, it's lackluster, but not worth triggering mooks that can't handle criticism.

    You shouldn't worry so much about other people's feelings. Your opinions on the matter might be valuable to some of us.

    You would be advised to arrange shipping on your own within the five day deadline to avoid being surprised with an automatic flat rate shipment.

    Wow, BBTS shipped my flat rate POL the next business day. Impressive. (It's not small, they had to take a while to get all that together.)

    Hello! I placed my first pre-orders with BBTS in the last few months so I’m new to how they work. About how long can it take for them to receive and send out items compared to when I start seeing the items in stock/shipped elsewhere? I’m just looking to set my expectations. The current example is seeing all these Kingdom Waspinators buzzing around but BBTS still hasn’t filled gotten them in stock. Thank you!

    I have been using them for a while now and I have yet to figure that out. From my experience it is a crap shoot.
