    So that's Baba sent the balance email so all paid. Including the original deposit comes to $181.07. pay pal exchange rate about £152 not bad I guess, about the same as Acoustic Wave cost me I think. Was expected worse to be honest.

    Their Aerial Bots are fairly accurate aren't they? Stands a good chance of realistic alt modes and heroic statuesque bot modes for the Seekers, right? (Fingers crossed for some decent articulation on them). Their Starscream and Megs will look fucking ace!

    Coneheads first though FT... Coneheads first :cool:  - don't know why I say this as though they're listening in here *shrug*...

    Anyway... wishful thinking an' all.

    Yup. He might not be a chesty McBeefcake kinda bot but the guy sure has a lot of personality. And FansToys figures have a better finish of everybody else.

    If you don't like him in hand it would be fairly simple to resell him, especially if he isn't readily available to other AUS buyers from normal sources (assuming based on your initial comment here). It is just whether you are willing to bother with that. If you know you are the type that is and the price is acceptable to you then do it.

    I feel exactly the same way about Tesla 2.0 after getting him the other day after having the xtb version for ages. XTB is more toon but the finish and feel on FTs is amazing. That paint is gorgeous

    Yea went ahead and bought him last night. I wasn't going to get that price anywhere else/again. Keen for him to arrive. I was gonna hold onto DS blaster until he came in, but think I'll just on sell him now to recoup some costs

    And ordered! Extra tapes preordered too. Figure since I still have the excellent MP Soundblaster for the official mold will likely grab MP Twincast if/when Takara ever get to it.

    I really like FT tapes (despite Rumble's arm articulation limitations). I hope they will make more new tapes and not just the repaints. Combiner tapes please including the dino's

    Until they actually come out I can't say there is absolutely no chance of August, but I'd be shocked if that was actually correct (at least for a first run).
