Soooo... can someone post a pic of what’s in the box? lol

 

motormaster a sword and a gun ( just guessing )

 

To be fair, people be busy. Its 1300 EST right now- Places like Toydojo have only been opened for an hour. So even if they already had it (they prolly don't, their deliveries won't arrive for another hour and a half), unless someone took the day off work to pick it up and immediately went home and snapped pics, nothings gonna be here yet.

People be acting like people already have their copies, its like I myself will snap some pics when I get him, but that won't be for a few more days! And the retailers are busy retailing- I'd rather them spend their time packing up my Road King to make sure it goes out today rather than wasting time opening up a box, taking some decent pics, uploading them to their computer and then going on here and posting them.

Maybe someone on here is from a city with a retailer with an actual in-person store that is slated to get it today and will post pics when they pick up their copy, but please give them some time!

 

Pretty sure TCP will post a picture as soon as they received theirs.

 

Erm....no, it's just places like Chimungmung used to have some early pics of new figures on facebook and what not in the past.........that's why there is so much anticipation and the figure, it's looks and what it's supposed to do as well and if it makes the cut, of course!

Usually the Brandon from the chosen prime is usually on top of things and has an early review out but nothing but radio silence from his end!?

 

Maybe it's like the Star Wars early bird special box? You just get an empty box and Roadking comes later.  

 

The anxiety for in-hand pics has turned some to this:

 

Hunger marketing.

 

I have put on a bit of weight, hopefully you haven't skipped Arm day, or leg day... or any day for that matter

That backpack has a ton of panels, but makes sense I guess since the whole trailer is build into this robot mode

 

hmmm...
the contrast betweeen simplified cartoony upper body and the detailed realistic cab of the leg is quite jarring though , i have to say.
also not the fan of metallic face ? the hue is too light. I need better photos. For now not sold at all

 

I was mostly thinking of Cyclonus and Hot Rod. The paint on those figures was crap and could have been addressed during mass printing. To a lesser extent, the clearance issue on koot could also have been quickly corrected.

F*********************** My protest just took a major strike! That abdomen does look descent in-hand and far better than the promo pics. I just took one big step closer to picking this guy up. Let's see what the reviews are like and maybe a few more pics before I lay down arms and wave my white flag.

FU***** I like this, I can't help it. We'll see, FT, we'll see.

 

In stock at Toy Dojo!

 

Back actually cleaned up a little better than I expected.

 

Looks ok, need better pictures.

 

looks perfect to me even if it has purple cassette tapes on his chest

 

This is my first fanstoys figure, and with it my first fanstoys pre order. I like some of what I see, and am not put off by the rest. We knew he would have a backpack, but fitting all of an MP-10 and trailer into an MP scale bot was always going to be a nightmare so I'll live. I think the torso and arms clean up real nice, the side guff on the legs is a little weird but I know its approximating G1 accuracy so Ill let it pass. What is a big boon for me is I cant see any obviously die cast parts aside from the ones in the back of the legs and the crotch which appear to be unpainted and structural, which is a big bonus for me
