    Has anyone here preordered/ ordered TFSS figure from BBTS before? If so, how quickly do you get them after the TFSS figure is released by the TFCC?

    What type of packaging do they arrive in? Brown shipper boxes? Are they factory sealed in any way?

    Mine came in the brown shipper. Got Scourge whenever it was released via BBTS.

    Wait... what? It sold out? I was gonna wait for it to hit one of their sales and buy it. Much like you, I wanted it, but not bad enough to pay $100. I was hoping it would end up at $75 or less.

    I bought the last one! I didn't think it would last long enough to end up on sale. Imagine my surprise when I go back after purchasing it and find it sold out. I suddenly felt much better throwing down $100 for it.

    Yep, BBTS' stock is the same brown shipping boxes that are sent out directly from TFCC to subscribers.

    I don't know about "factory sealed" (it's a mailer box) but the packages were still sealed when I've received mine, with the "numbered" sticker unbroken as well.

    Oh good.

    Given these came out the week before last in Japan, would Golden Week have had anything to do with these arriving now as opposed to earlier (BBTS usually getting their stock of new Takara retail stuff in M-W after its Japanese release)? Even if this stock is from Hasbro Asia, could a delay still have originated from Japan? TFSource hasn't received their stock yet either, so I don't think it's just BBTS that's lagging behind.

    Those are sweet lunch boxes. Great storage for weapons and accessories. I have the autobot one and the decepticon one, preordered the bot vs con lunchbox now. Good stuff.

    Got an e-mail that my Perfect Effect Combiner Wars add ons will be processing soon (feet and hands).

    Can't decide if I like these e-mails or not - I got excited that they were here and now have to wait again . . .

    I think it's funny that I'll have hands and feet before I have a robot to put them on...

    Guess that's what I get for holding out for the Takara Superion and those glorious Protectobots!

    I treat my POL like a toy bank.
