    FYI, I emailed TFS-Express about their dispatch expectations for MP45, because they are adding in the promotional t-shirt they missed from my MP44 order when they send it (and I need to make sure I remind them!).

    They confirmed the 23rd release date, but most importantly they said they expect to ship from the UK approx a week after release. So with luck, they'll ship Friday 29th or Saturday 30th, and we'll have him in hand the first week of December. Can't wait!

    I prefer the old MP Bumblebee, this one looks not appealing enough for me.

    I was gonna say it floats on water, just like tiny little rocks.

    Is it Thursday yet? I want to post meaningless drivel about my DHL package progress from Amazon JP rather than disparaging YouTube personalities and Monty Python quotes.

    bot mode: 2.0 wins
    alt mode: 1.0 is still better

    nevertheless for the sake of toon accuracy 2.0 blows 1.0 away, if not for the price hike it would not even be a contest

    Galvatron????

    Or .... some repaint?

    I think the later is more likely.

    My gut says Hoist/Trailbreaker. Not the thread to talk about it, but yeah.

    Nope. Just bought myself XTB's Aegis V2 so TT can leave Trailbreaker. That'll mean not doing Hoist either though.

    I'm happy with Cliffjumper or Galvatron though, most definitely! Jazz or Mirage would also be good, but licensing...

    Anyway, MP45 should be in my hands in two weeks with a bit of luck, and I can't wait!

    Half the price for a character I personally have low down on my B list? Nah, I'd just see an MP Trailbreaker as a waste of an MP for myself personally (I'd have zero interest in trading in).

    I'd switch XTB Toro for MP49/50 Cliffjumper in a heartbeat if it looks as good as 45 does.

    To be fair 3P has done exceedingly well with the "missing" Ark crew guys, so if TT didn't touch them I'd go for Sphinx Cel and Downbeat now I've got my TB. Minibots are difficult, because I don't see TT doing them all, even the Ark ones, so 3P has to fill that gap anyway, and FT are nailing the ones they are doing, in the main, and others can be found.

    Now, I don't see how FT Sovereign can be bettered, but as I won't be shelling out for him for some time, if TT pulled Galvatron out for MP50 I'd take that happily. As I said, Cliffy would be great too.

    Anyway, that little yellow one? Anyone seen that?
