If amazon stops showing a release date for them, bet on it.

 

Pic of the Planet card?

-ZacWilliam, just curious

 

I'll snap a pic after I get off work (about an hour and a half)

 

How was it shipped?

 

through amazon (assuming amazon logistics or whatever they call their in house service)

 

I mean was it in a shipping box, or just a shipping sticker on the product packaging.  

 

TR clones are on top, GO on bottom

Ah, it was a bubble mailing bag

 

So they’re identical confirmed. Also, I feel like Biosfera would’ve been great for Kingdom repaints if it had already come out. If we get “Galactic Odyssey” style stuff again next year, they need to use this planet again.

 

Phew good thing i didnt order this, such a waste of money for just a little yellow bit on the nosecone

 

I had these on preorder, but I just cancelled. A fancy planet card is just not worth it when it's for figures I already own.

 

The yellow bit on the nosecone is actually the same on both. Its the placement and size of the Autobot logo between the white stripe and yellow stripe that is different, making the yellow stripe look longer.

 

Well i only have a Cloudraker, so I'll be happy to have both.

 

Return your original cloudraker and tell amazon yours came without fastlane lol  

 

Order just got moved up. Should be here by Thursday.

 

After seeing the in-hands and confirmation that they are essentially the same as the two I already own, I canceled.

Would have been nice to get some variation in colors or a straight Takara Legends repack. Oh, well...

 

mine got moved up early too. still waiting on Ironhide and Prowl...

i feel like we’ll see him in kingdom or generation selects. or some Amazon box set that sells out in a minute and gets sold for 300 on ebay...

 

I don't recall any amazon exclusive transformers that have sold out in a minute. They're usually up for at least a month if not longer

 

I dont know why this is a thought, because each amazon exclusive is up for preorder for at minimum a month. Sure after the release date the availability is spotty, but from Skywarp, to the clones, to the coneheads, every one has had plenty of time to at least get a preorder in.

And amazon doesnt charge until they go to ship the item.

 

This. Amazon exclusives are easy to get. Then you get the people that say “I wasn’t collecting back then and missed it”. The go to eBay and pay a premium like the rest of us who missed things or decided years later to get them.

 

Listen. It sucks if you missed something or got your product damaged, or lost, or whatever. But if you just decided NOT to order something or wasnt collecting when it was available, im sorry, but its not amazon's fault and "screw exclusives" wouldnt change you getting it. it'd just change others from getting it, because we'd not have gotten these things had there not been exclusives.
