Wow...I'm all for that, let's get those dinos outttttttttttt!!!

 

Given GP's historical release pace, I highly doubt they'll release 3 bots in 2 months.

Also, is be much more inclined to trust ShowZ, who tends to have direct contact with the factories.

 

Personally I think Fuuma for the most part is pretty spot-on for an MP aesthetic, while taking a lot of cues from IDW Sixshot, though Hydra is absolutely more toon-slavish without being slavish to a fault. And the lack of paint on the orignial was the only problem I had with it.

As for Terminus Hexatron, I got him a long time ago off eBay for $40, was a lot of fun, but sold him in anticipation for Fuuma, ended up never getting the original, cancelling it from my POL once the Metallic went up, and used that money to go towards MP-44.

Oh no shit, I don't doubt it for a second.

Though his audience that isn't on here probably won't even be able to afford FT stuff to begin with hey gottem

 

Some FT-53 POs here: FansToys FT53 FT-53飞过山 Cliffjumper汽车人 变形玩具 G1 预定-淘宝网

 

NOOOOOOO

 

Im pretty close to that. There are a few exceptions like kfc junkions and mp 39 that i think i like too much to trade but cant know till i see what ft might offer. Im with ya on other companies "not hitting right" tho. Just suffice it to say ive been doin some serious soul searching the last month or so since this ft resurgence really kicked up.

 

If anyone is looking to pre-order the Hoist figure, Show-Z has the pre-order up with a $50 deposit.

 

Got the remaining up at ShowZ, so who knows? I've seen RoboToy having them up and ShowZ followed soon after. And their dino's have only ETA and no real date. So it could be anything.

 

Some more people, and we can establish a "FansToys-Only Collector" club  .

 

How were you able to find that. I ran a search for FT-53 and found nothing on FT Parkour Cliffjumper?

 

You need to try different search terms, and also, may need to set the region to Mainland China.

I also posted a comment on the Taobao thread explaining briefly things related to search.

 

Yes!! Wreck and rule

 

I definitely don’t think that the two September releases are accurate but rather a placeholder for Superator. That’s not really the part which I’m most concerned about though. I’m more interested in whether or not Gigapower won’t be releasing another figure for several months, which is what ShowZ currently has as their timeline.

They may be in direct contact but they constantly have old information posted and request sources from their customers to update their schedule.

All sites are just using an ETA, but the last time I checked, ShowZ had a blank, unknown or “2021” date listed for the last three.

I doubt either site has it all correct but I also don’t think that there will be a major gap in between the next release.

 

You should just form a joint club with the Takara-only collectors. You can live vicariously through eachother as you each gush over characters that the other company hasn't released.

 

I'm Russian, but I don't drink alcohol, so I like to think of myself as also not being Slavic to a fault.

 

Oh man, that one's on me, haha, tried to put "being a slave to toon-accuracy" in one word and it seems it may have backfired, my bad.

 

Slavish, but we all forgive you!   

 

THERE WE GO THAT'S WHAT I MEANT

 

I mean we all know it's what you meant, as it's pretty much the single most overused word in the TF fandom ever since TFs started becoming super toon accurate.

 

Most Slavic people are at fault though.

If we ever make an overused words list for third-party collecting, let me know. Because I really enjoy the terms which obsessed fans of a cartoon use to describe over fans of that cartoon for being too obsessive, in their eyes.
