My birdman finally arrived. I forgot how classy CT does the packaging and box.

 

Damn I gotta dig for that. Off the top of my head man, it was 100 plus dollars..however I took advantage of the point discounts and got them around 90 something bucks..

 

My Firmament shipped via USPS Priority on Monday, and has been stuck in CA since. So, not so Priority, I guess.

 

Unpacking the bird after work today!!

 

BBTS has now has the Firmament ship date listed as "Estimated Arrival: 2nd Quarter 2021". Seriously, WTH BBTS!?!?

 

First figure I placed an order for was for Ferocious at BBTS back at the end of August with a release of 3Q ‘20. In November it changed to 2Q ‘21, so I canceled and ordered from Chosen Prime (Landbull was from BBTS and arrived at the advertised time). Haven’t ordered from Big Bad since.

 

Really want to roll with the Cang Toys gang and preorder the existing 3 from ShowZStore (cheapest price and I don't mind the potential extra wait). I thought the first batch prices were steep, but now each one has gone up in price $20~30. It's not too late to jump in right?...right?

Come on in the water is warm..jump man jump

 

Honestly i have the zeta combiners,constructor,and dx9 menasor..all of which i love..this is no slight on those..but these cang figures are the most solid quality feeling and heaviest of the bunch..thunderking is going to be a thing of beauty

 

I jumped on them early when I saw how stylized they were. With ShowZ and points, I got the first 2 for $160.
The latest for $130. All shipping included.

Without those points and with shipping going crazy to my country, the total now from ShowZ would be $540. Not to say you'd incur that much. Shipping to here is insane now.

I'd have passed on them until I saw combined mode if I was starting now (as I want them for that). I'm in "sunk-cost" mode, so I hope the last 3 are cheaper. Never too late tho.

 

I guess I'll have a more definitive answer when my gcreation's grimlock comes, but the water's looking mighty nice this time around!

Was that a typo? I thought there were only 5 Predacons?

 

There's six in this set...

 

Ah, "MonkeyPants". Gotcha. Thanks! And woops @Daedelus , My bad  

 

don't forget the crab hands, the snapping turtle feet, and the headmaster...well, head. (one of these is completely false, the other ones are only partially false)

 

Wait . . . what’s completely false?!?!? WHAT?!?!?

 

Such an amazing figure!!!! Divebomb is definitely my favourite of the 3 members so far!!!

 

Got my boid! He's glorious! Much easier transformation to beast mode than the other two.

Also the crab-hands are a delight!

 

The easy af transformation was really nice. Not everything has to be a triple hinge fold fest in the legs.

 

Especially on Ferocious. Like, I got super worried about the assembly on his legs for going from robot to cat or back. I got some shock oil recently and applied that because the whole assembly and where it was attached had me super worried about eventually stressing the plastic and breaking. So nice that it moves smoothly now.

 

The turkey buzzard is out for delivery!
