    Thanks :)  .
    Probably for me it depends that sometimes online shops aren't 100% accurate with exact release, for example 1 bot was listed 1 month in a shop, and in the following one in the other and since the beginning.

    Ugh, can't decide if I should watch this video before hitting the cancel button on this set, or risk watching it and not hitting the cancel button after. 4-5 years ago a SG Optimus would have been high on my list as I missed out on most of the Botcon 2008 figures, but for some reason I keep having second thoughts on this set.

    Love that they did Spin out , Cordon and Tiger Track but I’m not buying these for my kids . Instead , I opted to convert their old classics toys that they already had in really ( pretty much still mint ) good condition of Sunstreaker , Sideswipe and Red Alert into these characters . Other than buying some toyhax labels of classics prowl and Sunstreaker ( which were cheap enough ) I didn't have to spend any more money on them . And I did very minimal painting too , which is the only way I would ever consider doing a custom ( either zero or very little painting being involved ) .

    Seige , earthrise , and kingdom stuff is by far the best Sunbow cartoon versions of those original characters ( Sideswipe, Sunstreaker, Red Alert ) . They are just perfect in my book but these old classics toys are still great toys with just as much articulation as the new stuff . So they really still do stand up quite nicely to the modern / newer stuff. Plus now these Diaclone characters, have unique dedicated molds to them . When possible I like to stay away from multiple purchases of the same mold , if I have a choice ( big exception to that is the seekers and the Vans ) . So these guys look similar but are 100 percent original / different molds from the main versions of these characters . Anyways here is my boys set ( my daughter has a set too ) that I just finished last night. I will be giving him these guys when he gets back from school today . Im happy for people that wanted these guys and who now have the choice to buy them but I felt this was the best option for my kids, instead of just ditching these old toys that are still great , why not just repurpose them into these Diaclone guys.

    it was quite the list this morning in my e-mails, Spinout, the deluxes, and DA-51 and DA-59... had to do some juggling.

    Edit: Saw the dialogue box finally at TCP saying that a bunch of 3-day notifications were sent in error. All the stuff is paid for at least, and hoping for Tigertrack to come in with the last wave of ER deluxes.

    Agree! Hope they give us a Delta Magnus and the rest of diaclone characters. The more obscure characters the better!

    So does anyone know when the next Transformers Tuesdays or even Fan Friday will show up? I'm hoping to see an official reveal of Wave 3 of Kingdom soon.

    I think the more likely reason for Fan Friday or Transformers Tuesday to start up again will be Kingdom Selects. One would imagine those will start arriving in March/April, so pre-orders may precede them by a month or two. We also can't be that far away from pre-orders for Netflix Wave 3.
