    So are you going to buy the camo version this time if you already have the regular color version?

    I'm anxiously awaiting my Camo Version on Pre-order with @ShowZStore - all you guys with your Red & Blue version are killing me, he looks so awesome! I love Titan Master and Diaclone play patterns, so this one has been highly anticipated for ages.

    I should have broken down and bought the R&B version, but I have enough Primes in my collection and was attracted to this in the first place because of the GI Joe connection (definitely don't need 2 of this mold, especially considering the price).

    that's my plan too.
    But at the same time this guy seems awesome from review, just wonder if anyone would double-dip even with a pretty high price tag.

    I'll probably be getting the camo version at some point.


    More than likely the next time there's an Ebay coupon.

    Yep, patiently waiting for that camo version too. Supposedly its "soon". Dunno how soon is soon, but I'm crossing my fingers its some time this month.

    But yeah, I'm sure there are people who are double dipping. Like I double dipped with Power Baser, and that's even more expensive than this! (I have managed to avoid triple dipping with Purple Power Baser, even though I think that color looks really good.) As I said in another thread, I'm not a normal Optimus color guy, so Power Baser and Op Ex are enough Optimus for me. But I'm prolly gonna double dip on MS-01 with the white and black versions. And I might get another one of these if they came out in a different color.

    I checked on Taobao and many sellers are taking preorder deposits for a reissue of the G1 red version. ETA is around the end of this month.
    The cost is about $115-$120 USD before shipping.
    That's the route I'll be going.

    Ah know, raht? I mean, their announcement several weeks ago said "April to May", so I foolishly put in a pre-order as we got into April, so now I'm stuck. Owel, if its not out by the end of May, I shall be terribly vexed.

    The plan was to use a flash sale but I bought Azalea instead. Now all the North America sellers are sold out except tfsource and bbts which take forever to ship. Was kinda hoping someone who was getting the green one would kick loose a red one. It’s either pay $190 shipped from US seller or $175 off an unknown Chinese seller.

    Didn't notice it's a pre-order. So there is a re-issue of the common one.
