    No I didn’t. I just tried with a small one and couldn’t make it.

    I had bought an electronic one but couldn’t apply it on my preorder so I just bought an e-mail one with the electronic one and applied it to my preorder. Maybe it did not work as I was on my phone though.

    And I'll take a screenshot too. Even with it posted upfront, people will still ask how to do this over the next few months.

    You have to start with purchasing a gift card before you can reload one. So the first one is an email gift card, from there it’s all reload. :)

    Still just as pumped for this guy as ever. Loooove the articulation engineering in the knees, the way the kneecap unlocks for deep bends. I've never owned MP-1, but MP-44's knees seem reminiscent of MP-1's hydraulics I've read so many people praise. The jets' elbow/tricep hydraulics, too. Such a great flourish that adds a functional robotic touch to the increased articulation. How TT handled MP-44's deep knee bends vs the 3P's is the kind of thing that separates the men from the boys.

    Just about four months left, gang!

    The knees are so good. It’s such an impressive curl. I’m really excited for this figure.

    With MP1 of you pressed down on the feet IIRC, it would move the shin vents. It's been a long time since I handled mine so I might be wrong.

    It would be awesome if MP44 could do that. I was thinking about getting the new Revoltech Prime but being that MP44 can pose pretty dynamically and transform, I might put that money towards MP44.

    If you’re referring to NO.014, I’m seeing between $60 to $90 w/o shipping.

    Trying to recreate this pic has made the excitement for the new Prime build. I can't wait to experience all that beautiful articulation.

    Yeah. I’m sure the new prime will be able to pull that off.
