    I've been waiting for HLJ to post preorders for Windblade and I missed the window. :( 

    Looks like my decision is made for me and I HAVE to camp out for the SDCC set.

    I was camping for this figure at HLJ pretty much since this mold was announced, since it was obvious that Takara will do their own version of it. =]

    I've yet to see them reopen preorders for any of the Adventure toys that have sold out. I'll keep looking though.

    Damn. That's a good Ratchet.

    Too bad its a retool of Strongarm. I don't like doubling up.

    He looks a lot better than Hasbro's version but still looks so plain in vehicle mode.

    The Hasbro Ratchet isn\'t even out in the UK yet, by the looks of things if this comes out first then no point in getting it.

    I had pre-ordered Takara Ratchet hoping he would have a few more apps in vehicle mode. The minor extra details look good in robot mode, but not enough to import. I'll stick with Hasbro's and hope for some Reprolabels. :)

    When I saw the original promo pictures of the vehicle mode I assumed they were using Hasbro's as a placeholder, unfortunately I was wrong.
