    He arrived today and this guy is seriously fantastic. I’m hoping one of the KO companies does an OS version of this.

    Gah, how is the release schedule for this so sloppy? Why do some stores already have this guy and rampage if he's only out in April? More importantly, should I pay the scalper prices or wait a month and a half??? Urgh...

    It has to be that he’s ready to go but Hasbro has put a hold on release so it can come out alongside the home video release. Expect to see stores putting the figure side by side with the Blu Ray.

    I always wondered if the people getting him now would be dramatically be different from the actual release in a few months because I never got how some people were able to get him early and not have the full release just be the same.

    AGH I'm so impatient. I just want a good voyager Optimus. Anyone have both the Siege and this SS Optimus to compare together? I wanna know which is the better one if there is a better one out of the two.

    I got one a few weeks ago. It's a great figure. I picked it up from a local shop. They said they got in four of them, but ti wasn't from their usual vendor. I can say that it's perfect, it does seem strange to me because I would have thought they would be all over the place by now.

    Unless you're dying of cancer or something within the next month then you might as well wait and not feed the scalpers. Pre-orders are still open everywhere so you can easily get it for retail and all its going to take a bit of patience.

    You think it's possible brick and mortar stores will have this Optimus before official online release?

    These two need their own separate display with how well they go together. If anyone has any picture requests for scale or anything I’d be happy to help!

    Potp trailer fits loosely but enough for play and display, it will come apart if you lift the trailer 20190302_152119.jpg 20190302_152129.jpg

    I'm hoping the SS44 trailer will fit, or even attach to provide the Jetwing form.
