    I preordered and paid for the 3 coneheads dec 29th 2018, 2 1/2 years ago.

    I sold my YM Coneheads to pay for the preorder too. Lesson learned though, never sell your figures until the release of the new figure is eminent.

    I love TCP but their site has definitely been screwy lately. I have been getting a barrage of daily emails these past couple weeks for “in stock items” and “arriving soon” items. They need a new web developer on their team…

    I don’t have a lot else going right now. The little goose of excitement is nice.

    TCP is notorious for this.

    Some of us haven’t collected that long. I only started in the pandemic. Hasn’t happened before and I hadn’t seen it mentioned. Got the shock of my life. Though I had to pay off multiple bots suddenly and my wife would kill me
    Enough to shock anyone

    Im hoping the TCP notice I got for Zeta Bruticon is not an error, it was listed as “arriving soon” and I got the 3 day notice this morning.

    It has happened twice before in the last half a year, as I recall. It is accurate 99% of the time. If you only have 1 or 2 things on pre-order from them, it might not seem so out of the ordinary to get a notification that something's due to arrive. In my case, it was like 7 different items all at once, so it was easy to recognize it as a glitch.

    I have him on pre-order at Robotoybase. They seem to get things quickly, and so far nothing from them.

    Some possible new images of Outrider and possible Hoist images? Are these fan digibashes or something real?

    Looking closely, it seems to me that FT transferred Outrider's old body to Hoist ......

    Oh yeah, the chest area? Looks like the original Outrider one.

    This will be the first new pre-order in a long time, I wonder if ShowZ will put it up? They haven’t been getting re-issues ahead of time but they still put preorders for the newest stuff like Perceptor and Huffer when the images first popped. They’ll probably have $25-50 deposits now though.

    Better go with Bombusbee. Shipping will be 85, but you'll get another Spindrift 2.0 ;)

    By that time, heattoy will be including Spindrift 3.0 for "free".
