i dont mind, it'll give my wallet a chance to recover.

Anyone know Blasters dimensions, like his height
Acteon
Dammit, I pre-ordered Blaster for a Christmas present – if it does come out in December the chances of it getting mislaid will be through the roof as well.
Might just have to cancel.
Feralstorm
Ah well. At least I get to spread out the purchases somewhat.
Optimus Prime
Eh, cancelled my pre-order for Blaster and Ravage a while ago anyway.
Need $$ for the MP-04 re-issue!
Dran0n
Oh noes!

Damn I was looking forward to Blaster. I hope we do get him, cuz Soundwave gets all the fuckin love.

Nothing new.Put on the back burner because its more profitable to use resources for movie toys, especially with xmas looming.
Of the 5 times i ordered from them the packaging was just plain sloppy on 3. A preorder for BTA Sunstreaker went to backordered the day after it was released without me getting any notice. Asked them why they dont send out notices on such things and they told me it was my fault for not checking my orders, like they were doing me some sort of favor. Their reply was just plain rude too. Same thing happened again on BT Skids. After that was done with them. Got the impression they really dont give a damn..

well, the only one i was planning on getting was the ravage usb. but, by the looks of it, he isnt in this set. no biggy.

That sucks
Seawing
I'm ok with this. I need to recharge my cash reserves anyways…
Randomus Prime
Better late than never.
Matrix Soul
at least it's not canceled (knock on wood)
Foster
I probably won't have Blaster in time for my "Top Ten TFs of 2009" list then.
Human Beastbox
Well, at least they weren't postponed indefinitely.

There goes my hopes of having them all shipped at the same time… More money to spend on shipping, YAY!
HLJ are bastards when it comes to stuff like that. HLJ wouldn't even combine an order of mine, where one item was a TF, the other was a sheet of fucking stickers!
marshall dusty
good! i can save money for them. and other stuff. been spending too much stuff lately.

And here I was going to be in Japan when these came out Guess I'll have to pass now.
Tekkaman Blade
I can wait, as long as it still comes out I'm fine.
