    Probably because not a lot of reviewer are interested in it, compared to the previous versions. But it is out already. My friend who ordered one, already got his yesterday, which i posted right on the previous page.

    Everytime this thread gets bumped I get sad, because it isn't another Bulkhead update. :lol

    I'm hoping for a Cliffjumper. TFP Cliffjumper is my favorite design for him and I would love to have the TFP FE mold that isn't super expensive. Same for the Vehicons but they're cheaper that CJ (around $27) on eBay but probably still a little too much to army build.

    Well, that’s what it took for me to preorder. I own the originals (and four Vipers and Serpentor), but it’d be cool to have a “general” BAT.

    Now they need to do Rampage and Cryotek repaints from the Megatron mold! Or will the new heads kill that?

    yes I’d really like a more affordable option for FE Cliffjumper. Plus they can fix the common breakage issue the mold has

    The socket in the head for the neck’s balljoint disintegrates. It seems that it’s not just third-party companies that can’t figure out not to use clear plastic in areas that need to bend. There’s a lot of decapitated FE CJ’s out there. I love this mold, and I bought like four of them since they came out and every single one had this problem. GDO Cliff does not.

    The front bumper bits with the horns that fold are also notorious for breaking. Both my zombie Cliffjumper and GDO Cliffjumper did it.

    Huh, this is new info to me. Then i suppose it is safer to wait and see for APC than hunting out the original?

    Oh yes, thank you; I forgot that happens as well! I think because so far, I’ve been very fortunate and it happened on only one copy.

    Absolutely. It’s very similar to GPS, every single copy is a ticking time bomb.

    Had a lot of catching up to do. They're doing the B.A.T.wave? Neat, this may get them to do other exclusive variants if it sells well. And I assume it already has.

    So what other color scheme other than GI Joe crossover one?
    Also, APC said they're gonna do a metallic color version soon enough.

    I apologise as I noticed I did not make myself clear. By "other exclusive variants" I meant by other exclusive variats of other Prime Moulds, for example Protoform X/Rampage out of Dark Master. Though there can be other variants that I could see them doing. Soundblaster with either a yellow or black chest (clearly Buzzsaw but if it is a black chest it can be used as a new character - Blackbird), the two Shattered Glass variants, I believe he had Bumblebee yellow in the Legends comic and the original Shattered Glass variant. Not only Soundblaster and SG, a user said similar previously, but I would like to see a Beast Wars: Uprising Botanica.

    Is anyone else going to sell this BAT Soundwave? I wanted the original repaint but it's going for ridiculous money and this seems like a good alternative.
