$140 is a spicy meatball. Gonna pass on this one for now unless a sale happens.

 

Paid for 2 at Show Z now just waiting for them to ship.

 

Got my payment request from BBB yesterday, $114.99 pre-order price, $15 pre-order, put it at $99.99 due before shipping. $128.99 current price on their website, and shipping was $11.50 to the US. $4 coupon put me at $107.24. Edited, they have a coupon for $5 off 100 right now.

 

That's awesome! Congrats!

 

In most cases now, Baba isn't the cheaper priced option they used to be.

 

If this figure is NOT a must have that you will be sad if you miss out, then if it doesnt sell out, in 2 - 4 months, it could just become 120 $ or less, the original price it should have been at  

 

Baba just started a newsletter! He’s coming for everyone now! Get those pre-orders while you can!




Also, why do we stay?! I'm $391 from being a senior member and then I get to start hazing the younger junior members!

 

Just got him. The paint and colours are just stunning. Like I can not believe how amazingly cool this guy looks and how much he pops. Not thrilled with the arm gaps and the knees are a bit scary. But I’m assuming sacrifices have to be made to made a bot look this incredible in both modes. Bravo FTs. Bravo.

 

I'm not a toy designer but I wonder what the sacrifice was for TF to design the forearms with those gaps when the render clearly didn't have them. It doesn't kill the figure, no it doesn't. But makes you wonder what the thought process was.

Like, I somewhat get the last-minute chrome. It is FT, they have a chrome fetish. It is what it is. But those gaps are just puzzling. Hopefully, someone comes up with an add-on of some sort, as the workaround (not having the gaps) makes it look even worse IMO.

 

Not really feeling this one, sticking with my TE. Selling mine for retail if anyone is interested

 

He’s still my go to seller. I found you just gotta wait until he actually gets it in stock and then buy. You can even coast on paying up the preorder balance until he brings down the price. He’s got the best prices on Newage as well. BTW I messaged him to try and get in on a Phantasm and he said will probably have extras after people pay for their preorders and to wait.

ADDITIONAL NOTE: ToyDojo wanted 160.

 

135.49 current total shipped to US including 5 off coupon. Not too impressive.

 

what gaps are you referring to? Are those gaps shown in the cartoon model?

 

Me excite!

 

I've heard there are some real benefits to becoming a VVIP member.
1. Instead of "My friend" he'll call you My Dear.
2. Instead of 5% off every order, you will get 7% off.

Amazing stuff. Worth the 100K admission fee I am sure.

Meanwhile, I think I'll use the money originally intended for this guy towards MMC Skylynx.

 

I guess the arms have to have the L shape to clear the hips.

 

The first render didn't have them, the second one did.

 

So what's actually up with Baba?? They have this message that they didn't get the expected number of items, and if you get an email pay fast. I have no email. But they are also still selling preorders. 10 available. ???

 

If you are keen on getting this from Baba, then I'd suggest making payment even if you have not received an email from him. Afterwards go to your PO order (through the website) and send him a message with a screenshot of your payment.

 

Why are people against folding out the arm fillers to complete the look of the toy?
