    ShowZ confirmed to me at least that they're shipping at least mine, which was on hold to start, this week iirc, if that helps.

    Ah, so maybe shipping is imminent for mine. In any case, I guess I'll just have to wait and see what happens. Still, any info is better than none, and I was feeling too lazy to contact ShowZ. Thanks!

    Don't mention it. David at ShowZ usually gets back pretty quickly, so no harm in trying!

    Well it fits the new MP Bumblebee. And they do capture the Sunbow look which IMO is the most important thing.

    As TE has released several TE-01 deco variants, including a translucent, here's to hoping they'll release a TE-03T. A partial translucent deco similar to MMC's Toronto convention version PS-01S Sphinx (right-side figure) would be sublime.

    Which TE-03 redecos would you all like to see?

    Holy shit he looks the part!

    At first glance I've got a front right thigh scuff, and a couple of very small ones on the nose of alt mode. Nothing too terrible fortunately.

    Definitely got both legs suffering from the assembly issue, so it's surgery tonight!

    Mine just shipped this morning. I did the 'special shipping in this pandemic' option where they hold it for 7 days before sending it, interestingly enough it got SFexpress shipping instead of slow boat.

    It doesn't, but to some people being heavy = premium.
