    Curt from TFsource told me that WST Jungle Warrior & Bombardier (read: WST Sludge & Swoop) are now on line for the end of March. He hopes that they are closer to being on track this time than in the past thanks to having pics of the stocking stuffer figures as well (which "will ship out shortly").

    Fingers crossed they're coming out this time. I'm sure I'm not the only one that pre-ordered them back when they were suppossed to be out last fall.

    I guess it really does take a year for each wst dino figure.
    I'd be happy just to know why it was taking so long.

    Won't be getting these. The last two releases have been HUGE letdowns for me. I ordered two G2 Slags and they were both broken in the same place (front leg) and I have a Snarl that barely stands.

    No more WST dinos. I'm going to sell them off.

    Same situation for me, except my order was placed on May 29th. I was a bit annoyed at the time that I was told I wouldn't be able to get the $5 refund on Bombardier (not called that at the time) because, having paid with PayPal "[they] can only issue a refund 60 days from the date you send payment, so a refund would not be possible (systematically) in September if paid for today [that is, in May]."

    However, that annoyance has been numbed through the sheer delay of it all. But I guess I shouldn't be surprised. None of the WST Dinorobots came out on time!

    So with the Stocking stuffers, if the stuff I bought to qualify to order the stuffers(I preordered the Quints) haven't been released yet will I still get my stuffers? I'd be REALLY pissed if I've paid for them and can't get them!

    I must say i only received mine yesterday ( the original 3) and as good as they are, I found Snarl the worst with his legs falling off, the spiked plates popping off, and the mid section were you pull forward to transform him in bot mode not sitting in place until you stand him up in bot mode
    but for KO'S i guess we can't expect perfection

    Have to say, apart from one of my Slag's having a loose jaw, I've never had a problem.

    Very happy to have a G1 coloured Swoop though, whenever he gets here...

    Call me fickle, but I can't say I'm really bothered about these any more. I ordered Swoop and Sludge, enthusiastically on the 29th of May '07, but now I feel rather indifferent towards them. Ah well...

    You're all set. Asked them already.

    I'll be surprised if they are on schedule this time. But I do hope so.
