    Hey. I think you may have got yourself mixed up. This thread is about Dx9 Gabriel. My guess would be you were trying to link Gabriel in the BBTS site but got Toyworld Dinos by mistake...

    No one appreciated my haiku :( 

    (Not sure if I got it correct, since 'BBTS' doesn't have vowels)

    BBTS also had supposed Ordin restock for a the longest time, but finally took those down.

    Glad I got lucky one day on eBay

    Make no mistake the link was with intent, that pre-order has been open for over 4 years, with the month changed every month like clockwork. Just like "fetch," it's not going to happen, so stop trying to make it happen, BBTS.

    You can see the same for Gabriel too, which "only" took a full 12 months to show up the last time -- https://web.archive.org/web/2021012...adtoystore.com/Product/VariationDetails/54586

    That will teach me for not reading posts before and what you were quoting/responding to, my bad. That is some slippage! :eek: . Easier to just close it off from PO and if circumstances change, then re-open for orders.

    Is there any chance of a blue recolor? I know that DX9 is basically a reissue company now. How difficult would it be for them to do a recolor? Obviously it would require a skilled color artist, but surely it could be done!

    It wasn't hard for them to make this one once upon a time, it's just they never followed through on a full run of them. If they were smart they'd do it because I and many others would buy it in an instant.

    I'd grab 1 but maybe even 2 :eek: 

    I forgot about that! Looks great. I wish we'd have gotten that!

    Honestly with Hasbro doing a Generations repaint of Siege Omega Supreme into guardian colors I would pick up 1 or more of those and pair them with Gabriel as I would prefer the guardians to be somewhat smaller then Omega Supreme and I think a couple of Siege Omega Guardians would look good with Gabrial, Terminus, or Ultima Guard

    I decided I wanted this, and saw that BBTS has a preorder for it. Am I gathering from this thread that this isn’t really likely to be made anytime soon? BBTS says January 2022. I see an above post that says the release date gets pushed back monthly. If so, I might try to get it by other means.

    Thanks!

    I have the order from BBTS too.

    Although Show Z would be a good site to watch for when it will actually be released.

    BBTS' thing is if they don't have the date, they just have it as the current month and it gets pushed back.

    As for actual info on date, I've been hearing May.
