    I want it and didn’t even preorder. This line moves too slow for me to stay interested.

    I'm in the same boat. Will wait until it is released and see what the reviews are like.

    I hope so, but I'm waiting till it's released before I order. I don't want it holding up any other pre-orders

    I guess @Spence dropped off the face of the Earth. It would've been nice to have an update on WTF is wrong with these people.

    but as a reminder.....spence isn't involved with action toys. it was just claims that "he knew people" so he had information.

    Man....Action Toys DXs are basically just Generations Gobots/Machine Robo, and I gotta start getting these. Bike Robo, Tank Robo and Train Robo all look absolute dynamite.

    I had no idea about the above issues with Mayhem Mechanics and Maas Toys. That sucks.

    So with Loco on preorder I'm now all caught up image.jpeg He's very orange.

    As its now getting on for four years of sitting on Blue-Jet and Turbo protos......why can't they get those out of the door and y'know, make some money back on this License?

    As far as I know, he was just helping them promote, and sell the toys at cons.

    What exactly is going on with Mayhem Mechanics and Maas Toys? I don't have any of their stuff, so I haven't really been paying attention to them.
