    I asked cheer toys if their price of $1099 plus $90 shipping was correct and he replied that yes it is! What a joke! I simply said it's too much with the chrome being out under 200 with free shipping and not worth more just because its metallic

    Mine was in Vernon (I thought it was Vernon, UT outside SLC and apparently it’s CA so oops) and just got handed over to OnTrac so I’m now expecting the worst.

    Those two flat panels in each leg make his transformation a bit trickier than the first two.

    Anyone else have front to back hip movement that's a tad bit loose?

    A nice long neck like a proper brontosaurus, I see. For some reason I got it onto my head that he was kind of stumpy.

    I'm guessing that's a reflection of the light as his sword looks two coloured.

    I got a message from Royal Mail today that my parcel was misdirected to Bexleyheath. Amusing thing is, Bexleyheath is a the town pretty close to where I live. (I even walked from there a couple of times when I missed the last bus, although at around a four mile trek, I wouldn't make a habit of that.) If I hadn't got that message and just checked the location via tracking, I’d have just thought "it's on its way".

    Anyway, I think I will probably get it tomorrow now. Possibly Friday. That's okay, he's wandering the neighborhood.

    For anyone else that had the package stop in Vernon, as I left the house to go get my kids from school there was a ShowZ box sitting on the front porch. I’m in Denver so that was pretty quick. And it doesn’t appear damaged which is a miracle considering it was OnTrac.

    Got mine from ShowZ today, and I’ve got to say it’s my favorite of the three I own so far (Sludge, Snarl, Slag). He’s really gorgeous in bot mode and mine seems to have zero issues.

    Mine didn’t come with any of the G1 toy covers. Is anyone else missing them?

    Look on the bottom of the styrofoam. Mine are taped underneath.

    Nice pic! Looking forward to ordering. Seems like there's plenty of him to go around unlike Slag. He was hard to find in he wasn't PO'd.

    Thanks for sharing,

    pic request:

    From left to right, on your billy shelf, can you do Slag on left, Sludge middle, Grimlock in right? Similar angle to what you already have.

    Wondering on the fit of these 3 in dino mode.

    I am wondering i did the right choice with Grimlock as my 3rd and final dino vs Snarl, for BOTH modes, to go along my current Slag and Sludge.

    Thanks!

    I PO'd Slag too and didn't watch stock, did he dry up quickly? If they are smart they upped the production numbers.

    I dont get it. I figured being in Phoenix right next door to where all these come in to the country, CA, it wouldn't take so long but I was expecting him today and got two tracking updates saying it was at the delivery company and then instead of out for delivery today I got another update saying my parcel is being delayed. I know this is still better than SAL but a little frustrating watching everyone that's further inland getting theirs :(  but I'm glad to see it at the same time :D . Aside from Graviter I also have a couple more orders from ShowZ that are just hanging out in CA. I guess they figured they gave me a bunch of quick orders and don't want me getting too used to that so they started slowing things down:rolleyes: .

    I just checked tracking again today after their misdelivery to Bexleyheath. It's at Medway sorting office today. Now that's a place which is still relatively close, but further away than Bexleyheath.

    I'm guessing this is just their way of routing things. At least they're keeping things in the same county. Unlike you States guys where things seem to get rerouted to completely different states!
