    UK folks...

    Just asked Omegalock when they're expecting stock.

    Hi David,

    There is a serve delay in China, we always ship our goods by DHL, it usually takes 3 days arrive UK, but it might take up to 1 week now :( 

    Regards,
    Customer Service

    So, on the basis TFs-Express started shipping on 2nd, and on 7th they posted that their Premium shipping is having delays due to weight limits, i.e. an extra couple of days, I'm hopeful that they'll have this in stock tomorrow or Wednesday. It should mean shipping on Thursday, I expect.

    But essentially, it's "watch this space"...

    Very Interesting, so it'd be fair to say Bobby was'nt a fan of Acoustic. Ive been trying to decide if to purchase this guy the last few days, and I still feel undecided both ways :( 

    Its also interesting Bobby thinks its unpainted blue plastic, which many have said on this thread, and yet some other reviewers swear its painted.

    I'm OK with the colors of the original, but I agree 100% with the one about the tapes. Laserbeak and Buzzsaw are OK, but Ravage and Fremble are awful. Went with MMCs, happy with that.

    As an MP-13 owner, this. I'm not replacing him. Now, if I didn't have him (or he broke). I think I'd go with RP.

    Actually some of us (or at least me) are here because I do think he looks cool and want to see more pictures, even though I'm not getting him. So, post some cool pics everyone! :)

    Still haven't seen anyone post him with TT Laserbeak. Is there a way to attach him, or can a 3D part be printed if not maybe?

    Also, can he become a Cybertronian lamp or not?

    Meanwhile, I paid $70 more from Toy Dojo and I’m still waiting for them to receive stock.

    One of the few times I’ve PO’d from an American retailer.

    Lesson learned… Never again.

    You broke my heart, Toy Dojo! 133E445C-404E-4767-90FD-F3924049556A.gif

    The see-through knees are quite disturbing for a figure of this price...

    Why haven't we seen a full on MMC tapes comparison yet? Surely at least one person who has his in hand also has the one of the MMC guys?
