    Bingo. I hate that store so much. Always overpriced. Always pathetic business ethic.

    Huh? They are an import/export shop. Their prices are perfectly fine considering this. How is this a bad business ethic?

    A bad business ethic would be taking money and not sending stuff to people.

    I never had any problems with BBTS. Always been fast reliable service for me!

    But recently, I got my 1st order from TFSource and needless to say, they will have ALL of my TFormer business in the future. I was most impressed by them! :thumbs2: 

    I will only buy TF stuff from BBTS now only if TFSource fails to carry something I want.

    I'm glad somebody remembers! The Wheeljack in particular was quite hilarious, and a good long time before the real one was actually known, BT or Alt.

    Don't remember much about the Bumblebee and Cliffjumper, other than the order pages existing. BBTS probably learned its lesson that time and didn't bother with an image for either.

    Just pre-ordered mine. Waited for this for a while. As for ordering from BBtoys
    you can always cancel your orders at a later date if others have cheaper prices.

    Hrm...
    Who knows what's going to happen now. That guy who pulled the "prank" sure messed with us, if it is a prank now or not. Either way, he needs to get what's coming to him.

    I think he's talking about past issues like that Alternators pre order that ended up being a store exclusive. Then they sent an email saying that they have to raise the price for the item and there will be a delay in the release so they can comb the stores for the item.

    Wouldn't it be funny if the prank turn out to be the fact that he said "this is a prank" and not the actual information about the toy itself.

    BBTS says a June arrival which if this figure does exists, it will be our "Botcon" figure for this year.
