I've got the same question. So if they have the figure listed for preorder, they'll %100 for sure get it in stock even though it's an old figure that hasn't been available for a while?

 

I tend to put Sentinel Prime on my Autobot shelf because Decepticons are generally larger thus having less space.

 

Usually. Takara Unite Warriors Megatronia was up for pre-order for $184.99 a few months back and they fulfilled it from what I've seen in posts on TFW2005.

I just put an an pre-order for the Bonecrusher and 32 Optimus wave, and emailed them asking if they can really fulfill it or if it's a glitch. I will post what they they tell me.

 

This is an awesome idea, let's definitely do this!!

I honestly can't really see him with neither team... as an active member.

So you can always go my route. Just have it so that he gets rescued, but isn't awakened.
That way, he can still be the faithful leader they knew.

 

How does TLK leader Megatron compare next to the Studio Series Megatrons? Was looking at the MTB version on Kapow Toys but something tells me he might be a bit too big

I keep him on what I call my "Antagonists shelf", which includes Sentinel, Lockdown, and all of the Decepticons

 

Imo i think tlk prime and megatron are the same height

 

Congratulations! I can't wait to see what you do with them!

Agreed! I do think Ratchet could do with a new mold too.

Probably Wednesday as @artimus prime suggested.

Wow, fantastic job! You really broke up the bland colours which is what he needed.  

Wednesday is a great suggestion! Let's set that as the day!

ATTENTION: On Wednesday 27th, we'll all post pics of Megatron for @Megatron118! The pic/pics can be anything but must include Megatron! Get ready!

 

Nice to hear that there's some potential. I was looking for Studio Series Sideswipe which is up for pre-order. I ordered it in March on Amazon, but it still hasn't shipped yet, so I was looking for alternative sites. I saw him once in stores, but was more restrictive on which figures I got at the time.

I got into Studio Series late which was fortunate since I "missed out" on SS-01 Bumblebee and SS-05 Optimus Prime and was able to get Clunker Bumblebee and the new Prime when they came out. Prime is a great mold. I went for SS-32 over SS-44 because I wanted the more traditional abdomen and wasn't that interested in the trailer/flight tech, although the orange fade on the hood is a nice detail. I don't like the painted windows, though.

Thanks for keeping us posted. I hope you get what you wanted as well

 

Awe man, I'm gonna have to skip this one. I don't have a Megs, so I will catch you guys on the next one...MAAAYBE lol

 

Yeah, mine as well pre-order on BBTS as well and see who fulfills it first, lol.

SS-32 has gone extinct... there aren't many sellers for it at the moment, and those that are selling on eBay want a lot of $$$ for it that one might as well get SS-44.  

I have SS Jetfire with the ROTF ab piece to attach to 32 or 44, so I can go either way, but just rather just get 32, and I don't have Bonecrusher either.

 

The team-up that was teased and teased but never delivered upon. Knights Unite! These two are so freaking awesome together:

IIRC Bay actually filmed real military personnel responding how they actually would so I think the military jargon in the films is very accurate to the real thing.

Roger that! @Lockon Prime not even your son or wife has a megatron you can use?

 

Ha!!! Wifey actually does have TLK Megs!!! Thank you!!!

 

You might want to bold, turn text red, and increase font size so everyone reading through sees it!

 

I really hope high octane Bee gets a new figure in Studio Series based on the 49 mold. It's my absolute favorite movie Bumblebee design, and my favorite movie Bee figure. The only bot mode difference is the chest which is easy enough considering the different alt mode, and most of the 1967 Camaro is similar enough to the 07 Camaro that a simple reshell would work perfect, would just need a little bit of modified folding geometry for the feet because the cab/cockpit (what's it called on a car lol?) sits a little further back on the older Camaro. I hope all the versions of movie Bee not yet released in Studio Series get based on this mold because I'd buy every single one of them. Dotm Bee with the different chest, Tlk Bee, etc

Alrighty, cuz the one I'm looking at is the ss Sideswipe. I put in a preorder, I really want to find a Sideswipe for retail so I hope it's real and not some glitch lol

 

I saw someone comment something about nasty stress marks on the side of ss Sentinel and that I'd need to shave down some tabs to avoid that. Anyone have pics of which tabs I need to shave down? And anyone have pics of the cut on the back of his head for more articulation? And last but not least lol, I have a difficult time getting his back two halves to stay tabbed together. Is this a common problem, and is there any solution, cuz I don't think I'm doing anything wrong

 

Gaz upon, Dark Energon!

 

I bought this guy as a weapons donor figure for my BA MPM Prime. I find myself posing this guy more. While the MPM KO looks and poses better in neutral positions, the evasion KO is better when posed dynamically.

Spoiler: A BIT PIC HEAVY

 

Thanks! Glad you liked it!
