Mines came today from Pulse......the season 2 guys look so good together 

 

Still waiting on a reply on refund request from sure thing. 2 emails sent.

 

I understand your worry, but if it makes any difference I also ordered from them and they shipped out the other order I had with them. I think the North American distribution is bad for MPs now, and they're being honest on not getting their stock in. I ordered a Slash TMNT neca figure and it came in fast with priority shipping. The shipping was free too so I am now a new loyal customer. If you can wait I would because I highly doubt they will go under or steal your $70.

 

TCP now has him listed as "arriving soon"! I'm pretty excited

 

Sure things gave me a refund
I was able to put in an order w Pulse however as of this writing Pulse is sold out.

 

I ordered Smokey from Surethingtoys a few weeks ago so I’ve been wondering the same thing. Do they package well? Cardboard box or just padded envelope? I’m thinking of ordering more stuff from them but I want it to arrive protected.

 

My slash tint figure was very well packaged and like I said free shipping was even priority usps mail. That left me impressed. I think the covid19 issue along with slow shipments of MPs to NA are the issue and not surethingstoys

 

So, MP-18+ or MP-19+ - who's the better plus release?

 

 

Man I'd say it's a tie, but that's probably not allowed! Otherwise I guess I'd give it to Smokescreen, but just barely...he's got a sliiiight edge in build quality I'd say, and I'm a sucker for that glossy paint. But Bluestreak captures my heart more, since he's an original Ark crew member and I love that color scheme and his face sculpts!

 

So what you're saying is you hate Bluestreak. How dare you!

 

I didn't even realize it until I was forced to write it down for an Internet forum!

 

@Sam @chchchch Neither are good as they’re both official corporate greedy fueled MPs by the evil empire HASBLOW-TAKARASS

 

I can't come up with a witty reply because I'm still   ing at "TAKARASS"

 

Sometimes writing our emotions down helps us to better make sense of them  

 

Excellent, thanks Rich.

Of all the MP+ updates, Smokescreen was the one I’ve been secretly wishing for the moment I got the original first MP19. I was trying to convince myself the made up livery words didn’t bother me. I ended up pushing Smokescreen all the way to the back of my MP display because I couldn’t stand looking at it. So yeah, I’m slightly OCD like that.

 

Completely understand, bud! At first I thought Smokescreen to be the most toon accurate back then with this helmet shape. After a while his face sculpt, and in particular his lips irked me. He had constant duck face imo, and I couldn’t unsee it.

Half of me regrets not paying $10 extra with TCP back when they had him in stock. I expected delays because every NA store had them with MPs. I’m a little antsy now, but I’m also stir crazy from being stuck at home.

I’ll take a pic of my package from Surethingtoys in a bit. That last sentence was starting to go in a bad direction. Mind = gutter

 

Yeah, I know what you mean. It would be nice to have a little fun MP distraction from the daily limbo.

 

Got shipped notice from Pulse today!
