    Looks like BBTS got their shipment. They have them available to order if anyone missed out on getting these. Look like substandard packaging but if you're gonna display it, I wouldn't care if the card it's on is bent a little since that goes in the trash anyhow.

    That's what happens when you put the blind guy at the end of the QC assembly line.

    Found wave 3 at Walmart last week. So, they are starting to trickle in and I mean trickle. I got one from Amazon before that. I really like these guys. Do I wish they were deluxe class of course but they are fun.

    I haven't seen any yet. Been going to Walmart regularly the last week or so just for these guys. Even went this morning to no avail.

    Yeah I've only seen Bumblebee, really pisses me off to be honest. Wanted a few of these little buggers and Kickback to complete my Insecticons.
    Going out of town/out of state tomorrow for a few hours, will have to check the Toys R Us and Walmarts I pass by for these guys (and Marvel Legends Nick Fury). I can only pray at this stage. :lol

    Yeah, $400 is a lot for that. Corbin V Mugger (Allicon) is pricey for $40, but is really nice.

    Really not bad for a legends fig in terms of playability.

    But I did find one minor QC flaw, although not on the fig itself. Same card in both photos above.

    yeah I had the same thing too with ALL 10 of mine.
    I was hoping my boy wouldnt notice it, but he noticed the specs being weird for a character like a Sharticon within seconds of looking at it.
    I ordered mine from China, did you get yours online ? or at US retail ?

    I only got normal ones from BBTS :lol

    This one was Chinese. I suspect these carded ones might have been factory rejects, likely because of the cards.

    They were normal retail packaging, but maybe they realised there was a bad batch and offloaded them out the back door.

    Most of the time factory errors don't tend to be worth much more unless it's really common to the point where people consider it a variant. Personally in this case I actually would want the paint.
