    Sorry if it's been asked and answered already,I didn't see anything really either way. Has MakeToys mentioned at all if they plan on doing a black redeco of this guy?

    Invoice from where? TCP said in their video that they were expecting him late September, right? I'm going to be travelling at the end of September, and I was thinking about having my stack shipped soon. But f he's actually going to be more like late August/Early September I might hold off until he's in it.

    Kapow in the Uk, invoice said they're expecting them in on the 22nd of this month. They've also put it out of stock which is what they usually do when items are on the way. Doesn't say it's specifically Manus but the only other things I've paid a deposit on are MP Thrust and Inferno. Can't see it being anything else.

    Haven't bought any 3rd party TFs before, but this will likely be my first.

    Awesome. Nice to have a release date. Nothing set in stone, of course. But it's nice to have a number.

    Awesome as always, Kuma. Even though I have enough Optimus Prime toys to form seven rings around the moon, I am still absolutely salivating for this one.

    Awesome gallery TJ, as per usual. Just when I thought that I couldn't get any more excited for this line... you made me more excited for it.

    I hope someone makes the G1/OG rifle/gun. That will make this figure perfect to me.

    After watching Peaugh's review and seeing Kuma's awesome gallery, this might be the first 3rd party transformer I buy! lol.

    Love how poseable it is while being a pretty good transformer.

    I can't think of another TF that can hit that flying axe attack pose, the ab crunch is ungodly

    Still I think I'd want this in another color scheme since I use battle tanker and classics prime still ...
