    Dalianjj replied to me. It's a false rumor. Enjoy your figures as it will be like Zeta's style.

    Ben's reviews are FOS.

    Does everyone keep the QC stickers on their figure?

    Ben’s review was fine, though as some mentioned, all the cutaways make it tough to follow at some points. Luckily I’ve seen the other Chinese and Japanese reviews, so I’ve got a solid grip on this.

    I will say my favorite part was when he mentioned that Maverick has a very stiff crotch. LOL!

    I have Maverick en route from the Dojo and even after loving RoadKing, I'm just not real excited for this one.

    What's the issue with Ben? Just curious really.

    Ethereaon looks very G1 to me, and as a relative newbie (just getting back into collecting) that's more of what I would maybe look for

    Dude, Baba has always had good service. The fact that he issued the refunds at least is a testament that he's not trying to steal money. People F'd him over. Poor guy.

    Mines due for delivery in about an hour. Thanks to tfs-express.com and dpd I can track the bugger too. Can't wait.

    Any requests for pics? I know mine are generally shite but I'm willing to give it a go.

    Silverbolt in the house. The instructions are not clear. It is so much easier once you find out where each part goes. It was surprisingly more silver than expected. There is a ton of paint on this guy. I was so surprised at how well the underside of the jet looks. There are also reports out there about the shoulders not going into place. It simply clicks up into place inside the shoulder. My only complaint is it feels a bit wide. He goes from chunky monkey to sleek concorde though. Also, damn this jet is long. I also discovered I broke my Skyfire while transforming him into jet mode so *sad face*

    Ditto. TCP shipped and Maverick is due in on Friday.

    Great pics, guys. Good to see this guy. Holy crap, he really is big. I have a feeling the size factor will be a wow moment once in hand. When I pulled RK out of the box I had the same reaction.
