    by any chance the other shells will be sold via other retailers considering that happened for the Pterobot Shell?

    Dunno, FPJ was pretty clear about doing them as an extremely limited run due to costs. 500 of each, I think? They're not listed as an fpcore exclusive, but I think as a niche in a niche, fpcore might be the only place to get the rest of the set.

    You'll probably see them for sale at conventions, though, whenever fpcore is at one.

    That will be hard since cause of where I am residing in, may probably have to bite the bullet if no other retailers will be selling this

    Hopefully TFSource gets him and Severo in since I have them ordered together to get free shipping.

    I am curious, you say the issue is where you reside..

    From FPCore they are free shipping and they ship from HK. As you reside in Singapore, according to your profile, I am unsure what the issue may be.

    Falcon's Hanger in Singapore will most likely get this if anyone else does get them as they get most of the FP exclusive stuff anyway. May have to wait for a convention or something tho.

    Also if Petrobot is just coming in stock now at BBTS and was shipped about a month ago from FPCore, would it not be considered that if you do order from FPCore you will get it before it is available elsewhere.

    when Pterobot Shell was listed on FPCore many retailers (including my local ones) did have pre orders listed. i was just wondering if it would be whether my local retailers (e.g. Falcon's Hanger) would even be having pre orders for the other shells such as Brontobot Shell and Ankylobot Shell.

    Probably shells, as the final two limbs aren't due for a few months.

    Pterotbot Shells are here folks, get them before the Arizona Sunshine turns them to fossils.

    Just got Ichi and Ni, I actually like them both a lot more than I expected. I wish Ichi had more yellow on his robot mode chest for show accuracy but I knew about that long before I bought it.
    Other than that they're great.

    Looking forward to the other two unreleased figures, especially Goryu

    Just got my Pterobot. No idea where to put the stickers. No instructions (unlike Tricerabot) and all the pictures I can find don't have any stickers applied.

    It's not a huge deal since the stickers have a hard time adhering to vinyl, but it's still a little strange.

    I don't have mine yet (waiting for Severo) but I never put the stickers on my Tricerabot for the same reason.. They're just gonna fall off eventually.

    I took a bunch of pics for fun I threw on Twitter when I got mine a couple weeks ago (the FPC ones shipped at the beginning of March).

    Honestly I think Pterobot's the strongest shell because it works well as a generic kaiju monster as well as a dinosaur in armor. No clue as to where the stickers go though.

    Jesus Christ, he's huge! I figured he wouldn't be as massive as Tricerabot because he's a Ptrtadactyl, but he is. Mine will ship from TFS once Severo hits. I don't know how I'll have shelf space when these guys are complete...

    Oh yeah, he's massive. He's just got more vertical height is all.

    He also photoshops well into Ultraman scenes.
