Well, whitewolfe313 didn't say "they are going to honor the old pre-order at the original price", they said "they are going to honor the old pre-order with price adjustment". In other words, the hope is that TCP will let people keep the pre-orders that they placed a long time ago, but will increase the price. That seems pretty reasonable to me. Of course, we don't know if that's what they'll do (I think in the past, they said that for now that is the plan, but they can't guarantee that it won't change).

EDIT: But to be clear, I 100% want to see your naked apology.

 

Bombusbee has it listed as 69.99 with $20-30 shipping so get your birthday suit ready

 

I really wanted something that looked like a Hi-Lux. As that is such an iconic vehicle, with a storied history in both civilian and paramilitary use.

 

If you want it, you got it.

Just be prepared for an extreme price increase, as this ff is going to made from…………DIECAST!!!

 

Baaaaahaha to Karenbots, transform and storm out! Way too much whining in this and most Fans Toys threads...

 

So funny and self aware. You must be proud of yourself.

 

Hey ppl can like my posts as much as they want. It gets me imaginary internet points which i use to trade with elon musk for bitcoin which i then use to purchase my fanstoys. Its my system and im sticking to it. 

 

Definitely hyped for a figure that’ll be impossible to order.

 

Just curious for people that already PO with sites like TCP will have to re-PO or will they keep the existing POs and just up the price to what the current one will be?
I already have had XTBs silver armed versions and have their current white arm versions and this isn't that big of a leap design wise to have to hassle to re-PO the two.

 

I’m sure they will adjust the price

 

It’s kind of a toss-up between which looks better IMO, this or XTB. Of course there’s the fact also this will undoubtedly sell out 6 seconds after preorders go live and it will end up costing a spleen, kidney, and a testicle on sites like eBay…

 

Looks like ft won’t be gouging us on this one. Expect it super easy to buy at launch for $159

 

Yeah, but you're Mr. Lemming! The crowd has spoken! The pre-order cliff awaits!

 

But it's been up for preorder since early 2020. I got my PO in on TFSource around that time along with Blitzwing and they were up for a very long time.

 

I don’t particularly like the knee joints, but everything else looks fantastic.

It’s always good when the designers can hide the vehicle’s wheels in bot mode.

 

And where can your order it if you aren’t a time traveler?

 

Not a single recent release or reissue has been even close to impossible to get

And I’m sure your next line will be “artificial scarcity”, “fanstoys fanboys”, or “price gouging”

might be time to get new material 

 

Has been for people who don’t live on the forums and refresh stores every 10 seconds.

Oh shit, I mean “price gouging, fanboys, scarcity”
