    This is nothing new with BBTS and most other retailers. And TBH, the $399 was still better than what you'll pay for this months from now.


    I don't need to list Galvatron 4 times. Or do I?

    I just realized that I won't be here when the SOC Voltron arrives on Friday. That means that I will have to pick it up next week, and that is when MP-44 is likely to be delivered.

    Jesus, that is quite a haul if I can say so myself. Screw Christmas, I'm set.

    I feel like a kid in the 80's man, how amazing is that?

    I watched the ‘86 movie with my 7 year old son for the second time to get ready for Prime V3 and because I signed up for Unicron. He loves the movie and is super excited to see my new Prime MP. He’s also excited because I told him he could have my Hasbro MP-10 as long as he’s really careful with it. :) 

    Not long now!!

    I have to admit being a bit nervous about MP-44 being the largest single purchase into the collection.

    I just want to say I have REALLY enjoyed visiting this thread the last 8 days. I know I’ve been spamming according to a few. I really don’t mean anything other than helping pass the time.

    I know it’s possible that I’ve gone off topic, but I promise I’ve tried to tie it into Prime’s release somehow or another here and there.

    Seems there’s a twofer or three in here that would like me to shush and just let the board be quiet until the release.

    No thanks. 97.83% of you are literally the bee’s knees. Keen as all get out. Off the hook. My home skillet. Brothers from another mother, or sister from another mister :p 


    Thank you ever so much for all the kind quotes and likes and shoutouts. I absolutely love it. And

    Yup, we've come a hell of a long way since pre-orders opened on December 4th:

    [​IMG]

    (was actually 270 days in total, since the release date was pushed back a week!)

    It was a long wait, thank f*** it's almost over!


    (also, is this a war of the countdown timers? :lol )

    Toy Dojo's review, simply because there are two other versions to compare it too.

    At least runner ups 2 and 3 can take consolation in having smaller backpacks.

    Oops that's bashing , don't won't do that. :rolleyes:
