    To be fair all third party releases are “limited editions”. They’re not selling Hasbro’s numbers.

    Tfsource seem to have back-tracked on their labeling addendums and they're back to plain old "widely available" editions.

    Pre-ordered Magnum and Iceman at TCP. Shameless plug. They ship to me fast from AZ to FL. Helps being close to Phoenix Skyharbor.

    And people keep blaming this on Fanstoys?

    Some retailers just have no shame.

    I rarely buy Hasbro Transformers anymore. Takara Masterpiece, or Masterpiece Third party.

    Fans Toys FT-31B Magnum

    Finally...........yay........but it comes out all the way in May that means we more than likely the set won't be completed this year!

    Well that would be great!

    Just got Spoiler, have not yet received my Road King reissue, but have already pre-ordered Magnum. I’m excited.

    Did you notice that Magnum is more expensive than Spoiler? Pretty sure they listed Spoiler at £70.99 and Magnum is £76.99... that's an 8.5% increase?

    hmm... shame, I guess still not bad! Shame he's not as good looking as Spoiler!

    Received my invoice from TCP...along with someone else's!

    "Nathan": sorry man, but I can't pay for your two copies! You may want to check your TCP acct, in case you are waiting for your invoice.

    Any major issues with the figures released so far (Roadking and Spoilet)? I have decided to sell my XTB set and go with Fans Toys. So, if anyone is looking for a MISB XTB Gravestone and limb-bots, PM me, as I will have them listed in the FS section and on Ebay soon.

    Can only speak for my own copies of course but no issues on mine. Keep in mind though that Roadking is a nightmare to transform the first time but it gets easier after two or three times. Spoiler has a screw right above his legs wich tend to scrape paint of the legs when you position them in a certain way so watch out for that. Transformation on Spoiler is really good imo. Both awesome figures and I'm really glad I got in on this set.

    Well thanks to my very understanding wife, I’ve taken the plunge and preordered the rerelease of Roadking. Bday next month so I was able to convince her to let me buy it for her to give me on my bday or when/if it comes in after that.

    I’ve been collecting the XTB Menasor (which, as a group, I prefer overall and will be my Menasor). But RK looks great in both modes, has a very interesting/involved transformation and his all in one cab/trailer design is something I didn’t want to pass up. I think I will definitely enjoy RK as a stand alone piece... or paired with MP10 when in alt mode... head on of course.
