Got my pile today

 

I am so confused right now.

So the restock of Black Series IG-11 came in and I had him on preorder for two weeks before this and he is available to Buy Now. What's weird is my preorder is still on preorder and my card hasn't been charged. The most bizarre part is when I go into the order, I can't cancel my preorder to just buy him now.

EDIT: Disregard all of this, He just dropped fine into my POL.

 

nice to see more hasbro items are trickling in.

SW black series cara dune is in my pol right now...too bad i just hit ship a few days ago on a current order. i'll have to wait a little longer to get my hands on gina

 

Except I didn't do that one. I stopped doing the flat rate years ago when it'd just go for a ride in the truck and never leave the same city after a week. I've been using the the tier thats like 10-12 bucks I believe and usualy got to my house within a week after it shipped.

 

I've had Gen Selects Greasepit on preorder with BBTS and they've pushed the ETA back 2-3 times now. On the other hand, they got Rotorstorm in stock pretty fast. So it varies?

 

Bit of a surprise, the MT-05CS Battle Sentinel came in. Has a ship within 90 days on it.

I joked weeks about when I pre-ordered the my little pony x transformer figure for my best friends daughter about how i'd prob start getting pre-order emails non stop for that stuff. Since than I got 3 pre-order alert emails for new my little pony stuff added.......but still won't send me things for transformers stuff. Go figure <_<

 

Someone probably canceled their order.

 

Star Convoy is back up:
Transformers Generations Selects Star Convoy Exclusive

And a weird one, they have Cel Shaded Optimus up for Preorder:
Transformers War for Cybertron: Siege 35th Anniversary Voyager Optimus Prime

 

No Black Friday sale?

 

I would buy Star Convoy if there was an upgrade kit to do him right. I like MMC's version, a lot, but he'll be horribly out of scale. I'm surprised PE or DNA haven't stepped up.

 

TFSafari.com has Star Convoy for $64.99 in stock shipped to the U.S. It's where I got mine.

Star Convoy:
Takara Tomy Generation Selects TT-GS01 Star Convoy Optimus Prime 23cm / 9"

Still waiting for those Dr. Wu scraplets to come in and ship out my pile o' loot. Almost tempted to cancel the order and get from somewhere else as I could've had them a while ago.

I would assume Star Convoy didn't sell all that well with places still not able to clear their first stock despite applying (heavy) discounts. You can still get him now from TFSafari even.

Probably like for POTP NP/OP, there's really nothing to add that would not inadvertently make him worse. There's just gap fillers and LED matrix kits.

I did come across a 3d printed matrix sword kit. It works without Star Convoy, but the hilt is designed for his matrix. You detach the blade, attach the matrix, and then reattach the blade onto the matrix. The problem is that I can't 100% verify if it's made by Tim Heada, and it looks like something he would do. I avoid TH stuff after getting burned by 2 of his kits.

I have been ninja'd. Last package I received from them took 9 days (received last week) via CNE. If they choose China "EMS", then it may take 3-4 weeks.

 

that's where i got mine

i like the star convoy leader mode

i like the optimus cab and vehicle with trailer

but i wasn't a fan of that all being one figure. like separately they're great but as star convoy it's a little lacking. thankfully that price was worth it. it does look fantastic. but it's a weird mish mash of two figures

 

Why FedEx!!!!!!!  My POL has been stuck in the same state with no updates for the last 5 days!!!!! Really starting to get worried!!!!

 

Maybe it was just you in particular, because I routinely get my items 3-4 days after shipping with flat rate (I live in WV).

 

I think theres something with FedEx where they're just not bothering to scan things? I thought someone else posted about it weeks ago? According to the tracking now it supposed to come today, which would be about 4-5 days after it shipped and was normal, but I noticed the last few orders when it leaves Osseo, MN theres no update to the tracking for 4-5 days. It left there, than nothing for 5 days till it got to a city in OR where it gets too usually before arriving to my house.

 

That's funny because my POL had made it to Baltimore, which is not to far from me, but then for some strange reason it was sent over to WV, which makes absolutely no sense, because WV is literally the opposite direction! And now it's just sitting there!!!! And I just want my freaking Runamuck!!!! Why is this so DAMN HARD!!!! Fucking FedEx!!!!
