Updated the update posts sorta... not really
Today is a good day.

 

Doesn’t the delays happen near the end of the year? I’m thinking around Sept/Oct. Wheeljack and Prowl immediately comes to mind. What do you say @Sam ?

 

3.0 looks great, comes with starscreen head, battle damage head and side from pics I've seen shame I can't justify price, maybe I'll get lucky and a third party will do a version cheaper.

 

It can happen anytime. Unlike 3Ps, official delays are usually within a few weeks. MP43 was delayed more than a month due to CNY.

 

I can understand that one. How many have been on time v. delayed?

 

today is the day that I do the pre-order of this optimus prime figure, and I am bloody excited.

 

*insert explosion noise* welp there goes my debit card

 

Who did you pre-order through?

 

with tfs express, pretty much got it for £309.99 including shipping

 

Welcome to the club.

 

Thank you for welcoming me, everytime I saw a photo of that figure, I loved it more and more

 

Delays have usually happened at the beginning of the year (Cheetor, Exhaust) or nearer the end (Prowl, Wheeljack, Bumblebee, Tracks, Road Rage).

Think there was only one release that was delayed from August to September (MP-18B).

Having a brand new mould in August is unheard of in recent MP history, so maybe it could be a good time to get Prime out. It’s good that production has already begun (in whatever stage). A delay of MP-44 would have a knock-on effect on MP-45 as well, which would be pretty lame. But I have faith that they’re organised enough now  

 

Didn't Dinobot come out in August last year? I'm pretty sure he was released without delays so that sets a good precedent  

 

July, after that there was a release every month. I think Shadow Panther was August.

 

Ah it was July! Damn, time is flying by waaaay too fast. Thanks for correcting me ^^

 

I

Yup, Dinobot was July, also the first time in recent memory that that month was used for a brand new mould!

Hopefully that means 18+ won’t be delayed either.

 

Another MP44 preorderer! Enjoy the wait!

 

I hope not either. I don’t really see them having a delay on Prime. That’s too important of a character. Was there a delay on Megatron?

 

I mean, with this figures design, then I think it will not be delayed unless there is a problem in the plastic they are using, but apart from that I think this figure will be flawless.
