    I'm still waiting for my rig from bbb (tracking number over a week old but it doesn't seem to exist anywhere), so I can wait for this a little while longer, I guess. March it is, I suppose.

    Try 4PX tracking, that's what BBB uses.

    The new Wonder Woman hot toys figure will release next month I think. I got “surprised” by being billed for Rescue like a month and a half ago (almost forgot I even had her pre-ordered).

    Is your HT collection pretty big? Also, hope you enjoy Soundwave :)

    Yeah, lol. I think I'm tapped for the rest of the month. I made one significant BST purchase earlier this month and FT cleaned out the rest with Rig and Tesla.

    I wouldn't mind Chomp waiting until after CNY now - although I'd take him before CNY too ;) 

    Wonder what reissues are coming in 2022? 0 announced seemingly...

    Payment was already requested by multiple retailers. You'll start seeing him in American reviews in a week or two (end of the month). Tesla 2.0s are racing across the ocean as we speak!

    Honestly, I hope there are NO REISSUES this year. Last year's reissues killed the momentum release during the summer/fall months. And now look at FT, 4 releases in like 2-3 months. FT got a ton of new stuff to release so keep em coming. I'm sure people would rather get a new release over a reissue.

    Completely forgot about the Deck. No way that thing makes it next month IMO. If it does, great.

    When it comes to HT I only do Batman so I'm good. Most of it comes out by July. I used to buy every single HT coming out back in the day, I went broke. No joke. Broke (as in not enough to cover 3 months in case of an emergency- my definition of a broke bastard).

    Feeling pretty good about picking XTB's for my Perceptor. $100 less is a lot IMO.

    Still, goof for those waiting on this. Hoping is everything you always wanted and not just heavy.

    Ooh, that’s be neat if they just went sick in Headmasters from March to June. I wouldn’t be against it!

    I get where you're coming from but I dont think that's really an option. Every year FT releases 4+ reissues or repaints (usually 5+). It simply isn't economical to use a mold for only run of figures. Other manufacturers like MMC have come out and said that they need to get 3+ uses out of each mold too.

    Personally, I'd probably get a new release in place of any repaint/reissue except for weirdwold/Lupis but I just don't think it's possible

    That would be a crazy year! I'd be very happy. Lupis Reissue + Cerberos would make the year good regardless of the rest for me really. Pretty happy with my TE Mirage and MT Jazz for now.

    Isn't the XTB perceptor loaded with diecast? Just sayin...

    Feb-March it says. She looks absolutely wonderful. I just some sort of expensive AmiAmi orders coming up along with a slew of 3P stuff (Huffer, DS TC, DS SW, FT Perceptor, etc) — I honestly wish crap would slow down/get delayed.

    Is it? I do not have mine yet, it is in the usual Showz shipping limbo where when it shows up it just shows up. It is my first XTB purchase in years and I'm just thrilled I saved $100 for what IMO is a very pathetic character, lol.

    And even if it does have diecast - which I truly do not care for -, I doubt is as bloated as FT's. Cool for those that like that though.
