    Mine just came in my PoL as well. I knew I'd be able to wait it out. Looking forward to finally having these two in hand!

    At the rate this line has been going, it might be up by May of next year.

    And then release in 2019.

    Got Missile Tank and Shuttle.

    I don't like the way the lower legs are formed for Missiletank (the way the instructions show to bend them in), but overall a solid figure.

    My Shuttle's tab all don't fit in properly and came with stress marks. Arms are loose as hell. Wish the tail fin folded up back like the cartoon and original toy. So-so fig.

    Never had any Gobots as a kid, nor did I watch the show or even knew of its existence. and when I did learn what it was I thought it was extraordinarily stupid. I never actually knew how different the fiction in Japan was for it until recently, I started watching Revenge of Cronos recently and I'm really enjoying it. its certainly a budget show, but its got a heart and the designs and score are all ace.
    I'm almost definitely getting Drill next month, and I really want that SOC Baikanfu. I still find it hard to believe they haven't done Blue Jet yet considering hes one of the main characters of the show. I hope they do him and Triple Jim so you can have the entire main cast with SOC Baikanfu. I really want them to make Trim, and while it'll probably never happen some Gendoras would be great. either Devil Satan 6 or Lord Gadas himself.

    Wow that's not good.

    Hey question on yours does the side flaps(that are on ball joints and sit on each side of the waist) fold all the way over and tab into each other?

    It takes some force, but my Shuttle Robo side flaps were able to fold most of the way. One side does not fold as close as the other side though.

    I finally got to play with Shuttle Robo and MissileTank Robo last night. I like them both, although Shuttle Robo's arm transformation can be a challenge as I have popped his arm off a couple times already. It also took some force to transform MissileTank Robo's tank treds on his legs the first time. Other than those issues, I really like how they both came out. I just hope we can get Blue Jet Supercar Robo to finish off the original line up that was revealed.

    Yes even the one with the misaligned pin. My only other complain on this toy would be that the right arm is considerably loose and cannot support the weight of the rifle.
