Well this Smokey delay news sure is a nut shot. I can't believe how long it's taking to complete the group.

I mean I GET IT, but it's still somewhat surprising.

 

I look at Roadking and Magnum and completely forget that these guys combine

 

Same! I'm only in for one set, and haven't decided if I want to display them in bot mode or combined. Bot mode looks so good and shows off all 5 members.

 

didn't care for any of them except motormaster but having magnum definitely made me appreciate the other stunticons (liked them as a team and combined but not as individuals) so I'll probably like them even more as I get more of them. Combined will be awesome, but I will probably change it up every now and then

 

Just a public service announcement for the community, if you've seen my B/S/T thread, you know that I am having to liquidate my collection or most of it. As a result, I have cancelled my preorder for Smokey at The Chosen Prime, so I guess at least one is opening up if anyone here is interested.

 

Dammit. You had to pour salt in that wound. It kills me that Dreamstar has a color shot of their entire superion, and Gt is doing recolors and rereleases of everything BUT not doing anything at all with their Hotspot. I swear its been 5 years.

On the other hand, them taking so long turned me onto FT so its not all bad. Now im waiting on this Menasor to be done..

 

Sorry, I share your pain, brother. I've got him on pre-order deposit on Terry's.

 

This Smokey delay might explain why Robot Kingdom hadn't listed the pre-order yet. I still need to pre-order one.

 

Yeah, the Menasor War is kinda at a standstill. DX9 and XTB are in this weird staring contest where they are both one release away from finishing the set, but both want to do anything but. FT seems to have gone undergrown for a brief sec. Newage seems ready to go at theirs while Magic Square could give less of a shit.

Frankly, I don't think you'll ever see another... Combiner War... mainly because every company happened on Defensor. I doubt they'll spring for the next one people want like defensor. I think next go around, you'll more of a diverse selection of Combiners.

 

cmon FT you still have time to get Spoiler reissue into an october release  

 

It's already Nov 1st in China. It's over  

 

I’ve had an FT release every month this year, I’m gonna go into FT chemical smell withdrawal if I have to wait until February.

Somebody send me something with a thin rubber blanket over it I can lift off!

 

Still waiting on 2 FT figures and will be buying Sheridan soon and other bots I missed so I will be alright when next year rolls around

 

Agabyss said he spoke with them, spoiler reissue will be released November

 

really?

 

That is breaking news. Kent Brockman level.

 

That's really spoiling the FT is dead narrative.

What's next? Dragstrip's coming XMas?

 

We cant have that  

 

Has it been established by FT why these delays are happening? Is it linked specifically to the Stunticon team or is it a delay across all FT releases? More info would help us understand whats going on behind the scenes so we can feel confident that production will recommence soon. I also wonder if its caused by factory problems too.

 

I'm guess the wording of the questions asked and the way Dalian answered was specific to Smokey.
