    Thanks for the heads up. I let them know I want to ship, this morning. Hopefully I see a shipping notice soon in my email.

    All of the above. This was one of my least-anticipated figures of the year for various reasons (focus on S1/2 characters, the blockiness and lack of articulation, other characters I preferred coming out), but it has turned out to be my joint favourite with MP Bumblebee. The transformation is an absolute joy - I've also transformed it dozens of times. It's fun and intuitive without parts flopping around too much (unlike Stack, whose transformation I hated). He's also rock-solid and tabs together perfectly, and has one of my favourite face-sculpts. It's great to have such a big, impressive, imposing Masterpiece again, too, as much as I love the car-bots - it's up there with MP-09 and MP-10 for me. I can't wait to see what Kobayashi does next.

    Nope. By the time most of us got the email, their work day was over. It's already Saturday there.

    They won't do anything till Sunday night/Monday morning at the earliest as they have advertised store-closure until the 4th. They don't work weekends at normal times and this is a holiday period for them too.

    I'm also waiting on that "pay shipping" request.

    I am so jealous of all of you. I preordered mine at BBTS within minutes of them posting it online...and I am still waiting for it to ship. They don't work weekends...so it looks like I am going to continue waiting.

    Just curious if anyone who has a preorder with TFSource that hasn't been invoiced? They have him in stock, he has been in my stack marked and in stock for a couple days. Still haven't received a bill.

    Thoughts? Anyone else experience this?

    Got him today. On got to go robot to alt and back. But damn was it fun. Will try to post some pictures tomorrow. Correct me if I am wrong but wasn't there a picture of him with MP-01's Matrix in his chest? I tried real quick and no way does it fit in his chest unless there is some trick.

    I'm pretty sure you have to tell them to ship your stack, mine is already on it's way from them.

    This is the most fun to transform. My five year old loved watching it and then loading cars into the back. I also feel like I could let him play with it, it is so robust. Not that I will. ;)
