    There's no precedent for the colour scheme, so it's fine

    And in any case, I actually prefer the new colour better.

    Wait, why did you paint your Unicron? Aren't you the guy who said that you were happy the maw was blue now, because his friends thought it looked more beautiful and said nobody should paint it because it's the colour Hasbro wanted and it's likely the colour it will have in Kingdom?
    Strange.

    12 per pallet!!
    That's gotta be 600-700 pallets' worth being shipped out domestically. How many trailers is that??

    a normal truck load is about 26 skids. a really could loader might be able to squeeze in 30 but that is a huge maybe. but that is if they dedicate a whole truck for this. which could happen but most times not. truckers usually have shared loads and are full of all kinds of random shit. the trucker could have 10 tires, 15 bbq grills and 10,000 tennis balls or one mogwai....etc

    it stands to reason that the guys would more or less take 8-10 skids with them and head out. eventually they will all make it to haslab. these things definitely arent going red, blue or orange.

    you also get 20 pallets out of each container. so the logistics behind the shipping of this state side is large to say the very least.

    Fedex shows that my Unicron is supposed to be here Monday. I’m certain this will not be accurate LOL.

    It's been decades since I've used a Gundam marker. Is the paint in them still chalky and easily scratched off with a fingernail, or have they improved over time?

    Um... yeah... don't expect that date to hold. If you check the history, you'll probably find like the rest of us that it hasn't even shipped :)

    supposedly, tho from the info we have the revenge also forms a railgun for Galvatron to hold and might be grey, so my faith in it actually looking decent is pretty low.
