    Yeah I paid for Guttur days before Show-Z got him in, but still no updates on my shipping. I ordered weathered Grassor two weeks before that with still no delivery and still no updates on my tracking number for him either.

    So yeah, you've given me hope that they'll arrive soon.

    I really hope they reissue metallic Guttur (again) but it seems unlikely :(

    Yeah, I am just getting into the Gigapower figures and am a fan of the Metallic and Chrome versions. I actually bought the weathered Grassor and had that in hand for about a day, but the paint deco and feel was not my taste. I really like the other versions, though...much more than I thought I would after owning FT's dinobots.

    It was the same experience I have had with other "weathered" or "battle damage" paint jobs. The paint felt powdery and like it was rubbing off on my hands. It made the figure and plastic feel cheap and incomplete, imo. Just put me off. The Chome version was a completely different story and I just ordered another member of the team this morning. Spent a little time this afternoon trying to figure out how I am going to work them into my display space.

    i just bought the metallic version of slag for 146 on ebay. it might be a while before he comes here but that`s fine. just need to get snarl and then i should be done. i haven`t decide if i want this version of grim lock yet or not as i have the reximus prime version and the fans toys swoop.

    Looks like I might have to sell off some of my Giga collection because I over estimated the amount of space I had. LOL, I’m going to try and make it work though.

    I'm in the same boat as you, my Grassor & Devastator has not showed up yet, or moved. But Gutter showed up today.

    If you sell Giga Chrome Guttur, I'll take it.

    Understood, I’m going to re-evaluate my space and make some tough decisions.

    I'll be honest, mate: Whether you go chrome, metallic or weathered (although a full chrome set is glorious), you can't go wrong with a full set of GP Dinos. You know the Magpie effect? I'm sure you do: you're walking through your display room or going to bed or in the middle of something important when you just stop and stare at your figures? Well the GP Dinobots entrance me like nothing else in my collection. They are that good.

    You don't have enough room for them? Then bloody well MAKE room!

    I only asked for Guttur, but if Grassor and Superator are in preorder too, I suppose that they´ll come too.

    Looks like you'll have the room for Swoop, depending on the angle...but you're definitely going to need another Omega in base mode to complete the display.

    Originally I planned a 2nd Omega but after seeing the bot in my self I decided against it.

    Mine came in today from Terry. A bit hard getting him to hold the sword, but overall a great figure. A bit lighter than Grassor and doesn't feel as sturdy. Can't wait to finish the line.
