    I believe you can wait to pay if you go into your account and turn on your "Stack" (Pile of Loot/Roller Stash equivalent). Been years since I've used it so things could have changed.

    Yup, use the stack feature and it's added to your stack and there's no payment up front. Yeah, I made that mistake originally myself when I ordered Grinder and Phoenix. That hurt. Lol. Now I add to stack and can cancel at any time if needed, no hassle and no payment until released.

    YouTube (Legacy):
    TE is transformed wrong in rear robot mode pics, the engine folds up and fits better into the space on his back, and the part behind his head slides down. Can't believe I was satisfied with DX9 at one point. I though OX was ok too until TE came out with the accurate legs.

    I see FT sold out in seconds - all the more reason for me to be happy with TE. FT just doesn't improve on anything meaningful to me.

    Definitely. Always use Stack to keep your options open. I've always advised folks to never pre-pay since nothing is guaranteed to come out on schedule/if at all depending on the third party.

    I love my TE-03. This looks really nice, but not so nice as to warrant my buying another version of this guy.

    I have Te-03 and for $100 more FT-49 has all the right right shapes in all the right places in both modes to justify the price, easily. Finally. Happily.

    Just grabbed him. Actually accidentally paid for him.

    Thanks for the tips. I’m pleased to have preorders with those two stores. I’ve bought from them in person before at tfcon so this is exciting

    Do you have to pay up front with them, or when your preorder comes in?

    Thanks for this, that prepay upfront stings a bit, hopefully they'll be around when FT gets around to actual releasing this.
