My phone dinged just after midnight with an availability email from BBTS; but as of 10:35 AM, it's still a pre-order.
The difference is she's a new team/set while the other two were niche repaints. Nobody who wants a Victorion has a way to get her besides this for now. Similar to how Devastator never seemed to go on sale and then just sold out. I'm not saying it's impossible. But the best chance to get her for cheap may be if she pops up on HTS while the MayMayhem promo code is still active.
everyone claim that they hated Victorion... it's just a repaint they said.. it's not worth the money they said... look like it's selling like hot cake..
It's more than just a repaint... New heads, chest plates, weapons, hands/forearms, combiner hands/feet... They also seem to sport more paint apps than the regular versions of the molds. I'm pretty happy with my purchases, except for the misassembled knees on Pyra Magna.
What's up with the knees? I haven't received mine yet and am curious. Is it something that can fixed?
There's an assembly error where a piece in both of Pyra Magna's legs are backwards. Some people manage to fix it through creative carving. But my attempt to fix it just broke the figure entirely. In my opinion it's better just to leave it unfixed.
My Victorion hot cake has just been shipped today from BBTS. Looking forward to all that syrup...mmmmmm...maple syrup...
It is now available on HTS, part of May Mayhem sale! Transformers Generations Combiner Wars Victorion Collection Pack | HasbroToyShop
i just learn that there is going to be a trasnformer event happening near my place next week... if btts still havnt stock victorion by than, i really really hope i could find one there... for any malaysian that is interested, it's in one utama old wing, 25/05/2016-06/06/2016, apparently there is a speed transforming competition.
Got my Victorion from BBTS, she's pretty awesome, just wish they never changed the teal for this green...ohhh well...they included a poster! All the retools they did to make the bots more female are pretty neat! I have to say my favorite is Pyra Magna, her headsculpt is amazing! I love the combiner weapon, they should have done something like this for all combiners! The new hands and feet are great, but I feel the feet are lacking forward and back tilt to make posing and balancing alot better. I'll probably mod them to add a ball joint. I added my custom thigh extenders for the combined mode, it helps make her taller and improve her feminine appearance and proportions.
