    Their Silverbolt is gorgeous. The face-sculpt is pure sunbow. Same with the Stunticons, really. Best FT's headsculpts in the company's history, IMO.

    A KC-10 is bigger than a Concorde (though shorter)----that'd be a heck of an add-on.

    I got to go on a ride-a-long on one of those many years ago... freakin' cool experience. HIGHLY recommend it if you get the chance.

    I personally don't know when Goose will come out, but I hate to be kept waiting. I have already reserved shelf space for him and it's aesthetically displeasing to see an empty space where my aerial bot should be. If he is not released by December, I will personally contact FT and ask them for an explanation, but hopefully they will not disappoint. I look forward to my aerial bot named Goose.

    If we have painted prototypes for Magnum, Goose, and Iceman now I fully expect before next summer we have color prototypes for Hollywood, Viper, Smokey, and the Bandit.

    People are saying December because Sovereign M was just released, and lately they've been averaging about 1 release a month. Also, there's only 11 days left in November so its extremely unlikely it will come out in that time. We usually know about FT releases about 1 week out.

    How accurate are the alt modes of the limb bots revealed so far compared to the real thing?

    For the top half of the jets, right? I am sure David can answer that for you. But for the lower part, it's a big box...

    TFS-Express has the release as December... now there are some big holiday events and I hear the post can get busy unless you’re a big fat dude in red driving a sleigh...

    hope there aren’t any major delays!

    This will release in December but a lot of us will get it January I think.

    People who order from US retailers will probably get them just before XMas though.

    The projection (from Amazon) is holiday spending will be down, so I expect the post office will be busy, but not that busy.

    The “big box lower part” is completely accurate to the real thing... if by real thing you mean the real Aerialbots in the cartoon.
    Less accurate to the real airplanes they were mimicking of course but again, these are a deliberately cartoon accurate design so it’s intentional.

    I'm waiting for nice overhead shots before really getting into it, but there's definitely some odd choices going on. (As in, why not make the tailplanes the right shape/size, as they have little to no effect on other modes, etc).

    And given Black Friday, which a year or two ago turned into Thanksgiving Day sales, has now turned into "pre Black Friday sales" that seem to to start at least a week before Black Friday, it's quite possible the online holiday purchases are going to be even more spread out and gradual this year across nearly two months of time.
