    I've never used the TCP site before but I was able to preorder with it but since there was no space to put CC info , I just used the visa preorder option.
    I went in and added a CC into my account afterwards and the FT-16M is showed in my preorder section. Hope that means I saved my spot.

    Only thing is says January 2020 release. Is that final?

    ^They are my e-tailer of choice but they kind of gouged on the FT-29T price last time. With it just being listed as a deposit, I wouldn't be surprised if they do the same on this one too.....

    I pre ordered one on TCP too. Of course I just bought the regular version last week for an higher price and of course I don’t know which version I like more!

    Looks like it's gone at TCP already? Glad I got ToyDojo when they went up but sad I missed chosen prime. They always seem to be first to ship new stuff.

    Edit: NVM, forgot to login first. Chosen prime secured.

    Looks like it's still available? Fans Toys FT-16M SOVEREIGN (Metallic)
    Maybe you were looking at their listing for the old regular version.

    Right. If they do the same with FT-16M, then not only are you paying more than NA retailer, the shipping time will be longer. The whole point for many USA customers to buy from overseas is for lower cost even though the shipping time is longer.

    Funny how TCP is calling it Metallic instead of Movie. A truly metallic Sovereign would be labeled FT-16X.

    What's shipping prices on TCP usually like? To Massachusetts. It's just showing "Pre-order".

    just POed through TCP as well as TFSource, will probably cancel one or the other once things start moving, both through Paypal so didn't have to pay up front.

    Ordered. Haven't bought through TCP in sometime. They changed their site some!
    Very excited about this. But seriously, 2019 gets more expensive by the week for a Transfan.

    January 2020 is TCP's code for "release date unknown"
