    Must be your location, only one option for Europe.
    Yeah they charge more for shipping than showz on paper, but the final price is usually the same or sometimes even a bit less

    For some reason I’m not getting emails anymore but mine shipped. I’ll worry about email another time. Right now, I celebrate as I now have an Xmas present.

    True!

    I hadn't thought of it that way, but you're right. Hopefully mine gets here before Xmas.

    Kinda hoping they'll make a Nemesis repaint in the future. I have the ThreeZero DLX Prime so I don't want to double up on Primes, but a black Nemesis version of this character would look pretty spectacular, I think

    @ARTFW00 I MIGHT buy this nemesis version if it includes EXTRAS and comes in at a lower price...the whole accessories pack thing gives me pause ;)

    Honestly if it comes with the figure, earth mode parts, poseable hands, and his gun I would snap it up and sell my OG.

    They should also toss out the pointless stand to reduce costs on the nemesis version.

    100% agree. Stands of this scale should either be a free PO bonus, or be included with a add-on/weapons pack. I'm still awestruck at the price of the actual upgrade kit. All I want is the articulated hands but it's definitely not worth it for me.

    Speaking of which, has anyone actually ordered and got the accessories kit? Not sure it has already been released.

    For me, I would want the cybertronian parts and maybe the movable hands. I'm curious also what changes is with the head. The axe thing is pointless and the globe looks funny. And yeah the price is set too high, just for these small pieces.

    On the contrary, I kinda like the stand or base tho, it enhances the 'statue' look for the figure in bot mode. Wud be nice if it comes with lights (w/o adding to the price further of course)

    Is it easy to take out the old mm01 face and install the new one?

    The accessory kit head looks the same but with painted eyes.

    yea, just requires you to remove the sides of the head, which fixed with weak glue.

    Same here. I saw your post and checked my status and mine has shipped. I finally get to fill in the missing spot on my shelf. Now if we can only get the upgrade kit.

    I'm considering to get either of these upgrades (wish i can afford both):
    - upgrade kit with the cybertron accessories
    - upgrade / enhanced face mask with the more realistic LED eyes (from capcomkai)

    both cost ~ the same (about 50-60USD) i think..

    which would you guys think be worth going for if only given the choice for 1? ;)

    I mean the actual upgrade kit from them will come with a new head along with articulated hands, swap out parts and weapons. Feel like that’s more with it than just a head.

    Just me tho.
