?

Do you think this new product could be stepping away from what we love about Transformers as toys?

    Anyone think we can get a petition going somewhere for Robosen to make a trailer for optimus that can attach to him and auto convert (open and have the missle launcher/arm raise/extend and fire it's two missiles and launch Roller)?

    Welp I'm going to be filing a claim with Hasbro in the morning. Fedex never attempted to reach my home despite it going on and off the delivery truck for five days now. So yeah I'll most likely get a refund, such a shame that I'll never get to experience this robot epicness.

    I will never use Fedex again. I've had so many issues with them the last couple months..

    At least one servo (or how ever you spell it) per side for lifts to lift trailor for detach....2



    At least 2 for the lift to put it vertical..maybe could combine with lifters..either way gotta probably be at least 6 for the process..



    Based on the weight and quality of prime probably another 6 to open it at least....



    Etc.....



    Probably if your willing to pay another 700

    Mine was apparently lost by FedEx dumbasspost, so hasbro pulse sent me another one last week. I just received it today. Call them and get a claim started. If my experience is anything to go by, they should have more available to ship out.

    I guess the main boss walked out at the FedEx facility and another team had to pick up the slack. The driver was from a different facility.

    I am in the same boat as you in terms of paying everything off. I spoke to an actual person from robosen for the first time yesterday after several failed attempts. They told me Hasbro shipped first. No Robosen direct orders have been shipped out yet. They plan on landing 3 separate shipments within the next 4-6 weeks. The initial shipment is due to arrive (robosen is hoping) sometime in December (is robosen's hope and plan!). Looks like Robosen direct customers may need to wait a while due to global supply chain issues. :(

    I did not. But if he was aware of it, he would of known what it was since it had an autobot logo on the box.
