    Shit, looks like I held off a bit too long. YM Sunstorm seems to be sold out everywhere. Does anyone have a link for a reputable seller who still has some stock or know of anyone who is selling theirs?

    From ToyBento.... "As Toy Bento is now non-profit, fulfilment time may be long (4-12 weeks), and after sales support is no longer free. Please do not buy if you are not comfortable with this". What the heck? I appreciate the honesty and all, but at the same time, that doesn't really give a buyer confidence.... anyone else know another source?

    Ahh I didn't see baba was sold out. My mistake
    Toy Bento is legit as far as I know. They're even active on Facebook. You can PM them there with any questions before you order. If you're still not comfortable with them then there's BestGrey on Amazon. He's legit as well. I've bought stuff from him. Just know he has only 6 left in stock.
    https://www.amazon.com/Transformers...ie=UTF8&qid=1516586893&sr=8-1&keywords=bb7-02

    Uncle Billy. Also legit:
    BB7 BB7-02 MP Scale Sunstorm,In stock

    Besides all that there's always Taobao which will be cheapest option. If you're familiar with Taobao you can go that route.
    I have an IT (Infinite Transformation) KO MP-36 Megatron coming from this Taobao seller:
    变形玩具金刚 比比奇 BB7-02 KO日版涂装MP11-S 太阳风 SUNSTORM-淘宝网
    Just use the Aliwang chat feature highlighted in the red rectangle to chat with him prior to ordering to confirm if he has your desired quantity in stock.

    Here are other listings on Taobao:

    That's about all the trustworthy sellers I know of that have it MISB.

    Thank you everyone! Ordered. :)  I remember Uncle Billy being reputable, just hadn't bought from him before so I couldn't recall that site. Haven't used TaoBao and don't want to go through a forced registration with Aliwang or whatever it's called using a cell phone number for the sake of chatting. The skeptic in me feels like that's just opening the door for malware attacks to be targeted on my phone, lol.

    I have ALL three of Toyworld's Coneheads. They look AMAZING, and to me, not a bit out of place.

    Glad to hear you're getting one. I had forgotten all about NA retailer Toy Dojo. They're great too.

    For those still looking
    .
    Toy Bento has (1) original release YM Skywarp for $80 shipping. Its just missing the missiles, otherwise complete.
    Contact Ben @ [email protected]

    Note: technically Toy Bento is not taking any new orders at this time. But mention that Kesler mentioned his offer.
    I was inquiring for YM Seekers and happen to mention he had an original release/incomplete Skywarp at hand :)

    Even with no missiles it is still MUCH better quality than the official Takara MP version.

    Does anyone know if those repaints for Nacelle, Hotlink and Bitstream that Yes Model solicited are ever going to see the light of day?

    I'd give up on those.

    I think TFD jumped the gun on announcing them and YM seems to be done for the moment. Every bit of info about them has been nothing more definite than "he tell me", and the continued silence speaks for itself.

    And still no Yes Model KO version of MP-11 Coronation Starscream in Takara MP-11 colors. :mad: 

    I'd like to see Yes Model do the TT MP Coneheads as well.

    If KO's of the TT Coneheads are made, I would hope they would be improved upon by:

    1. Finding a way to make the nose cone peg in place instead of dangling on their backs like a floppy mess.
    2. Have the option to transform THrust's wings to be higher up, like the way Yes Model did.
