Dojo. I ordered on the 22nd of April. If you ordered from them, and it was near that date, you will hopefully be in the first group.

 

You and me both. We'll get 'em soon enough, though.

 

@Paik4Life who posts on these boards does live stream reviews of most/all FT products. Usually (and luckily/coincidentally) he does this the night before i get my copy - i received shipping/tracking info that my copy will arrive monday, so heres hoping as I find the live streams and particularly the transformations incredibly useful.

 

Yeah if the Dojo is already shipping, I sense a livestream tomorrow night. He probably has his already but will spend the rest of today and some time tomorrow figuring out the transformation.

Oh man, the weekend is looking better already.

 

Maybe that is how they determined his release date so retailers won't have him to put on Black Friday sale this year.

The last 3 to 4 years the only time we see FT figures after color pictures are shown but before release is if there is a convention they send samples to. There haven't been conventions this year. The last time we got real "review" on anything was Hoodlum and Hydra who had samples at TFCon (just in hand impressions for the most part). I'm fairly certain they were asked not to allow that to happen again since it hasn't.

Looking at the pictures I'm very confident they are not on his back. Two in the forearms, one beneath the head.

 

Didn't someone post side or back pics? Its how we saw the fin in bot mode

 

I ordered from them on the 23rd, but no ship notice yet.

 

You are right, I'd forgotten it. It was one of the images from a Chinese convention late last year, someone took a side shot. No idea where to find it in this thread though.

 

Toy Dojo has partial stock now. Look at that magnificent box  

 

I just picked this up from Toy Dojo.

Oooh, his back is kind of a mess, but I guess most of us won’t be displaying FT-44 from the back.

 

He has a lot of train on his back, doesn't he?

 

How's his waist rotation? Looking from the back, it should be pretty good actually? Not 360 but definitely more than Silverbolt?

 

It's not that bad in person.

I don't have FT Silverbolt to compare but he makes it this far.

 

Thank you, kind sir. Looks great!!!

 

for the love of God please transform it and let us know how it is. I'm dying to know.

 

lol, sorry. I only transform them if they arrive in alt mode.

 

You could have broken the Internet  

 

What’s the paint like....gray is matte, purple is metallic? Thanks

 

how's the rest of the articulation, then?
