    So pre-order update.

    I only have 9 Road Bandit Menasor heads left (Toon version). And roughly 25 G2 Menasor rifle orders available. After that, any new pre-orders will be put on a waiting list for whats left over after the initial pre-orders ship. Please get your order in soon. There really is no point to wait if you want any items. I also do offer payment extensions for those who don't want to miss out. :)

    Could you please reserve a G2 Road Samurai head and a Thunderclash head? I'll give it a purchase as soon as possible.

    Just place an order through my website for the items you want. There is no automatic check out, that forces you to pay right away. Once you check out, I manually review and record your order. Then send an invoice through Paypal, which you don't need a Paypal account to pay with. And if you need a payment extension, all you have to do is ask, and I'll be happy to hold your order. :)

    Ordered. I'll have it paid by the 1st of April. Probably this Friday actually, but it depends on how much easter chocolate costs.

    I ordered the green rifle and 2 heads.
    didnt see until now that the blackjack gun is a bonus only if you order the rifle and guns sets together. is it too late to add the guns? any other way to get the blackjack gun?

    I love combiner wars G2 Menasor, it's special so it deserves the Renderform upgrades. I just bought the turquoise gun, bandit head, & deluxe guns. The guns really help fill in the blanks left by Hasbro and further bring out that flashy G2 goodness. Can't wait!!

    Seems like most people want the Bandit head. I prefer the Samurai one.

    Also I didn't get the gun but whatever.

    Just a friendly reminder that there is only one week left to order both the G1 style and G2 stunticon weapons and Menasor heads. After March 31st, all of these items will be discontinued! To see whats available, visit the following link:
    Combiner Wars Stunticon Acessories & Upgrades ? Renderform

    Update: Also only 5 RF-18 Road Bandit (G1 Toon style) heads left. This has been more popular than the Shogun toy style head.

    Got my order in a couple days ago.

    Venksta, out of sheer curiosity, which color Motormaster/Menasor gun has sold the most? I went back and forth a lot before settling on purple - they all look to match the "in your face extreme neon!" G2 colors so well.

    Right now, here are the stats:

    Green: 33
    Turqoise: 30
    Purple: 16

    Based on both paid and unpaid orders. I thought the purple would be more popular, since it was the less extreme looking compared to the other two.

    So production has been under way this past week. Due to the amount of orders I got, I decided to machine a new mold for the barrel tips of the Menasor rifle. I only got two complaints, from the over 300 of the original versions I sold, about the alignment on the barrel tips, not being even. This part was gang molded with the main rifle. After some time, from casting each mold copy, the alignment went off, and it was hard to trim it to look good. I was going to originally just leave it alone, since only 2 people complained, but decided in the end to make a dedicated mold for the tips. So since I didn't inspect the original master mold file, the new barrel tips are longer, and resulting with this last batch of rifles being a remold now. The mold line is also nice and crisp, and over all, the barrel is also much smoother, which I'm really happy with.

    Here are some behind the scenes photos of some of the castings so far.

    I swear you have the coolest garage, Venksta. Every time you post a pic of the works-in-progress I picture you with mad scientist hair and lightning bolts and stuff.

    I really like that green, it just pops! I may yet have to order another piece...
