    I'd be in on a MTMTE one, honestly, knowing planet X, they'll definately repaint it into that color scheme, its just a matter of when.

    Yeah I don't think it will be streamed but i think someone inside the panel room will definitely stream it.

    Nice! Now I wonder how long it'll take for BBTS to get their's in...
    I'd change sellers, but it looks like my order is still set at the original $170 price, and I don't want to lose that.

    Probably a few weeks (2-3 weeks)
    Same exact thing here except mine is for TFSource because I waited too long to preorder from BBTS or just anywhere and by then they raised the price to what it is now and TFsource had it for $169 still at the time so I had to get him from there.

    I hope it's that fast! A while back, they had the estimated release set for December, but now it says October. So it seems they're expecting it sooner than that original December release window.
    Let's just hope the shipping doesn't get hung. I want my giant robot dino man!

    I’m sure he’ll be out soon it usually takes a few weeks for them to reach the US. I think he will be available everywhere in the US by the end of November in stock wise. Now the wait (for me at least) will probably be for the MTMTE retool and other Dynobots (possibly).

    Looks like there was no info from the show then. I kinda want to wait and see how the MTMTE version looks, but I'm also very happy with what already exists. Decisions decisions.

    I swear to god if they reveal the version of Grimlock I prefer right as the one I have pre-ordered ships I might fall out of my chair. But then again the first version might match their other Dynobots better, so once again I'm left just wondering.

    I think you misspelled "months". TCP and places that get theirs by air will get them a week or two after it's released in China, but BBTS does the slowest boat shipping they can find and are a month or more behind at the best of times, and now we have those delays at the ports.

    This exactly why I ordered through TCP. BBTS is great for a lot of things but typically they get shipments significantly later than everywhere else

    I mean, you can follow me and just use this first version for Dino mode and the MTMTE one for Robot mode. :D 

    Still, if you wait for the lul between production runs, you could maybe even make money reselling OG Cacus… in a year or so! :p

    I meant weeks (to get to the US/US retailers) but your right it will take longer (after hearing this info) it will probably take longer. And I will say if TFSource doesn't honor the OG price I'll switch to ChoosenPrime or whoever has Is it stock.

    This is what I will do probably do cause of how great that alt mode is. Also, I like both his MD and MTMTE look.

    I just hope BBTS honors the original price. I'd hate to wait forever to get him and have to pay the higher price. They haven't notified me, so I assume I'm still locked in.
    I don't mind waiting longer to get it cheaper.
