    Just to clarify, PSX is shipping out Turben and Oberon.

    P.S. Congrats to @LazyAza for using the right version... LOL :)

    Tyrantron slipped to late Aug/Early Sept. Believe me, he's my most anticipated figure this year, I'm in the same boat.

    This thing is NICE! But is it $120 nice?...not sure
    It gives me TRANSFORMATION vibes of Leader Transformers Animated Megatron though...that's not a bad thing...awesome figure.

    Still need to lock my preorder in at PSX... Gotta get that free shipping and extra accessory... I hope it's something cool, and not just a second rifle or cannon piece or beamsaber or something.... Haha speaking of, anyone want a second Calidus gun? trade ya for Impactor's Harpoon on the wire lol!
    Glad to hear Turben is finally shipping. That means soon I'll finally get my Dicamus and Legends Lio Convoy I group ordered with it on CP.

    I doubt he'll come with an exclusive extra. He's got free shipping. PSX is usually either an exclusive extra OR free shipping. Not both. Honestly his guy has so many extras and add-on bits that more would be overkill.

    Carnifex had free shipping and he came with Impactor's cable harpoon as a freebie.

    True. I'm sure it was said before though that PSX was mainly going to do one or the other going forward. I've got Megs Pre-ordered through PSX so I'm fine either way

    Rodders was free shipping and an extra rifle.
    So Carnifex came with the cable harpoon? Hmm wonder if they still have him in stock since I haven't jumped on him yet lol

    Dicamus also had free shipping and a bonus rifle at psx, Calidus had a 2nd gun and free shipping. Free shipping is just a pre order bonus but extra accessories and whatnot are probably gonna keep being fairly common with the psx copies. Free shipping gets taken away usually once the pre order window closes now I think.

    Sure hope he doesn't have any nice exclusives I'd care about since I got mine on order from actionrobo instead.

    I haven't followed the news about this guy closely but can someone tell my if the hole in the forearm is here to stay or if the final version will come with a plug to hide it:

    Canon attachment point replicated on both arms. Some people may want to attach the canon on the left instead of the right and I've heard nothing of a part to cover the unused canon slot so it's probably gonna remain as is.

    On fence about this guy. Because of extra miner and gladiator parts he is more expensive than I would want

    I'm really looking forward to this guy. I'm just tired of this big lull in releases all around! It seems like nothing is coming out and I'm afraid it will all come out at one time.

    * I think you get a lot for your money.
    When you compare him to Dicamus or Kultur in about the same price range I think he's a steal!! He's bigger than Calidus and loaded with accessories! I love MMC, but they have been increasingly stingy with accessories and extras. (No hidden missile launchers or blades and guns. Remember figures like the Hearts of steal seekers or Hexatron where you had more weapons and options than you knew what to do with?)
    This figure finally gives you some options and play-ability. Dollar for dollar, I think this figure gives you more figure and more options and any MMC offering in quite some time..... AND he looks AWESOME!!
