    I guess the lack of a colored prototype is alarming, guess my excitement for him has blinded me to the info right in front of me. PlanetX version must have put some fear in them so they want to make sure it can top it in build quality, imo it already has the win as far as aesthetic.

    Unless there is some type of bonus accessory I really want (generally unnecessary anyway, but just in case) I don't preorder at all until people have started posting in stock at stores at which point I'll get my order in. The companies like MMC probably hate that attitude, and it is the type of attitude that contributed to the recent Carnifex reissue being cancelled (I wasn't in on that anyway, but it is the most recent such situation).

    I don't think it is "fear" of PX, just production capacity. At this time Planet X has exactly 1 project left they have mentioned publicly at all (a silhouette of a Victory Leo to go with their Star Saber). MMC on the other hand has the last two DJD (who I expect this is on hold for), Guzzle/Brawn, Ratbat, probably another exclusive for TFCon in October, and maybe others I'm forgetting. That isn't even counting the Ocular Max side of things, or the new Infinity Finity line (or whatever it was called, I can't find it now) they mentioned.

    Same here. I’ve had my preorder paid off on ShowZ since April and I’m seriously considering canceling it and putting the funds towards something else.

    It's a pain to see how they rescheduled from August to end of year and beginning of 2020, however I'm still determined to get both versionv, to have Ismenios in beast mode which (in my opinion) looks more accurate to the beast mode in the comic, and D-zef in bot mode next to Kadmos. And of course D-Zef continuum in a special place

    If MMC still intends to get this out before CNY, I imagine D-Zef will be at TFCon.

    Keep in mind that both Saltus and the Insecticons were available for pre-order for 2-3 years before delivery, though.

    I think it's based on whether or not we see it before CNY. Factories shut down for celebration so if this thing isn't released before that then it won't be seen until 2020.

    I think it was a guesstimation on someone's part but it won't be 15th September sadly.

    The continuum version is scheduled for Jan 2020, the other version is for end of this year on tfsource, and we know they never respect the release date so I'm guessing end of January next year? Maybe?

    MMC has so MANY figures scheduled for November and December 2019, it's comical.
