Thank you very much!! B
looks much better than Mpm, no doubt about it.
Maybe I'llgo with him till BA Ironhide will be released.

 

That is my plan as well.

 

Well how do you like that, they shipped it to the wrong post office. Now it's a "maybe we'll have it tomorrow." And thus the wait continues.

 

Sadly, he does not (I mean I guess he does but I would just be the 2007 version in black with 2 badly fitting 60's panels hanging off the front).

Thanks.

No idea if they'll ever get to him- but I keep hoping maybe we'll get a 70's reshell on the mp soon.

 

I did at one point. He's ridiculously huge in bot mode and really just pure crap as far as any durability goes.

 

Oh come ON! Sorry that happened that sounds really annoying. Mine is available for pickup at the post office today so I'm going to try and get it at lunch or something. Luckily for me it's just a short walk away from my apartment and they've never sent it to the wrong office before (fingers crossed).

 

At this point, if you get yours today I'll be just as stoked as if I got mine haha. Good luck!

 

My Optimus just arrived at my post office today along with my weijiang Mpm Megs I cant wait!

 

OMG FINALLY!

 

JK, still happy for you. But I want mine too!  

 

Anyone else had the half-painted grille issue like Emgo?

 

Haha I know I don’t feel good about beating you in this particular race but at least I know you’ll have yours soon! First impressions are that he’s big and so shiny! Didn’t have time to take him out of the packaging before going back to work though.

 

I look forward to hearing your thoughts on him once you have time to mess around with him!

 

Omg OPTIMUS IS HERE! However, my Megatron didn’t show up that’s weird but I’m still excited

 

Haha no worries.

At least you've got something to look forward to when you get off! I too look forward to your thoughts and impressions.

 

Yes, ShowZ got me a replacement part in about 3 weeks.

 

So I’ve been lurking this topic for a while and had to jump in to shout out @ShowZStore!

PreOrdered 11/10, shipped 11/19, showed up about 2 hours ago.

and as I sit here watching a video on how to transform him because it’s kicking my ass, this thing is absolutely awesome!!

 

I hope it's not a common issue. Last thing I need after 5 months of waiting is a necessity of waiting more for a replacement part...  

 

They look so good together  

 

Got my Thunder Commander out of the box. He is GORGEOUS, but really kind of unwieldy. Very stiff and hard to pose and way way heavier than the original (my fingernail broke when trying to manipulate the chest!!!). I feel like every time I try and move him something comes undone on the back or chest. I think this will be a display centerpiece, cause he looks SO GOOD, but I'm glad I have the official MPM4 and I will continue to have lots of fun with it. I'm definitely gonna have to do something about the chest, too. It doesn't feel like it's correct out of the box. The details and paint job are amazing though. I feel like they really thought of how to make this look as good as possible in both modes, although they didn't think of it as a "playable" figure. I can only imagine how hard it is gonna be to transform this behemoth! A question: what is the extra masked face for?
